CPOP1 is a key enzyme required for nodule microenvironment control and successful symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Lotus japonicus

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The enzyme coproporphyrinogen III oxidase plastid related 1 (CPOP1) creates a low‐oxygen nodule environment for nitrogen fixation within nodules of Lotus japonicus. CPOP1 makes heme, which helps control oxygen, and acts in infected cells; its knockout raises oxygen levels, suppresses nitrogen‐fixing enzyme activity, and halts nitrogen fixation ...

Automated identification of honey bee pollen loads for field‐applied palynological studies

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1584-1599, November 2025.
Summary In a changing world, it is crucial to characterise communities and their evolution over time. Because social insect pollinators forage on flowering plants around the colony, the nest potentially contains important information about the pollinated plants such as species identity and plant phenology.

An eDNA Survey of Plant Biodiversity in a Local Dam Within South Africa's Largest City

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Ecological information is needed to establish, implement and monitor such biodiversity management plans. This study employs environmental DNA to provide a good overview of plant community structure in an urban dam in Johannesburg, South Africa. It further reveals a gap in the taxonomic coverage of South African plants on public DNA databases.

Low level of polymorphism in two putative NPR1 homologs in the Vitaceae family

Biology Direct, 2010
Background Grapevine is subjected to numerous pests and diseases resulting in the use of phytochemicals in large quantities. The will to decrease the use of phytochemicals leads to attempts to find alternative strategies, implying knowledge of defence ...

Phylogenomic insights into the origin of the Norton grape

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1458-1468, September 2025.
Challenges in viticulture such as disease resistance have renewed interest in underutilized cultivars. The Norton grape, one of the earliest popular North American grape cultivars, holds the potential to produce exceptional wine while being resistant to pests and disease. Yet, the ancestry of the Norton grape is controversial.

Niche Differentiation of Three Terrestrial Isopod Species Based on DNA Metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Species coexistence is a hot topic in ecology, with niche differentiation playing a key role in reducing interspecific competition. This study investigates the dietary habits and niche differentiation of three terrestrial isopod species (Armadillidium vulgare, Sphaeroma raffaelei, and Trachelipus semiproiectus) using DNA metabarcoding technology.

DNA Metabarcoding as a Complementary Approach to Traditional Surveys for Monitoring the Plant Diversity in the Amazon canga

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
The canga of the Serra dos Carajás in the Eastern Amazon is a biologically rich region with important iron ore deposits. We used a comprehensive DNA barcode library to test the implementation of DNA metabarcoding for plant species monitoring. In this study, we observed that soil eDNA was more efficient in assessing canga plant diversity, revealing a ...
