ABSTRACT Perennial crops are continually wounded throughout cultivation. To limit pathogen infection and tissue dehydration, plants have evolved a range of wound responses that protect damaged tissues. These responses include changes in gene expression and the synthesis of protective compounds such as polyphenols.

A Multistage Statistical Framework for Curve‐Family Model Selection
Empirical modeling of drying kinetics and other curve‐family phenomena often relies on a reduced set of equations and preferred indicators, due to the difficulty of comparing heterogeneous metrics in the model‐by‐indicator table. The article presents a statistical procedure enabling objective, reproducible selection of competing models, regardless of ...

YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator in Escherichia coli, regulates loci like iraP and mqo. Its expression is induced by (p)ppGpp under stress conditions, and protein levels rise during mid‐exponential growth, connecting its role to stress response and metabolism control. ABSTRACT YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator, has been associated with
