Tenuazonic Acid-Triggered Cell Death Is the Essential Prerequisite for Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler to Infect Successfully Host Ageratina adenophora

Cells, 2021
The necrotrophic fungus Alternaria alternata contains different pathotypes that produce different mycotoxins. The pathotype Ageratina adenophora secretes the non-host-selective toxin tenuazonic acid (TeA), which can cause necrosis in many plants ...

A Double Mutation in the ALS Gene Confers a High Level of Resistance to Mesosulfuron-Methyl in Shepherd’s-Purse

Plants, 2023
Shepherd’s-purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris), a globally distributed noxious weed species often found in wheat, has evolved resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides mainly due to single mutations in the ALS gene.

Entropic optimal transport is maximum-likelihood deconvolution [PDF]

, 2018
We give a statistical interpretation of entropic optimal transport by showing that performing maximum-likelihood estimation for Gaussian deconvolution corresponds to calculating a projection with respect to the entropic optimal transport distance.

Laser weeding of common weed species [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
The massive use of herbicides since the 1950s has resulted in increasing problems with herbicideresistant weeds and pollution of the environment, including food, feed, and water. These side effects have resulted in political pressures to reduce herbicide application.

Special issue in honour of Prof. Reto J. Strasser - Effect of AtLFNR1 deficiency on chlorophyll a fluorescence rise kinetics OJIP of Arabidopsis

Photosynthetica, 2020
Leaf-type ferredoxin-NADP(H) oxidoreductase, encoded by AtLFNR1 gene in Arabidopsis, extensively exists in chloroplast stroma and thylakoids and is responsible for the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH in PSI.

Occurrence pattern and morphological polymorphism of Chinese weedy rice

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Rice, the main food crop in China, has been sporadically reported to suffer from weedy rice infestation. However, the overall occurrence and distribution pattern of Chinese weedy rice remains unclear because a systematic survey has not been conducted. In
