Functional memory of drought affects leaf chemical defenses and microbial interactions in aspen
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Experimental design of the common garden study. Summary Drought is an important driver of tree mortality, but its long‐term impacts on trait expression remain poorly understood. Leaves are a key interface at which trees respond to abiotic stress, and foliar traits such as chemical defenses and microbial communities may play a role in determining post ...

Biodegradation of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene by White-Rot FungusIrpex lacteus [PDF]
Mycobiology, 2009 White-rot fungus Irpex lacteus degraded TNT significantly in proportion to the culture time. After 48 h incubation, about 95% of TNT was degraded. Two reduced metabolites were identified as 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4-ADNT) and 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene (2-ADNT) which was further degraded.

Circadian Clock Gates Verticillium dahliae Defence in Cotton by Modulating JAZs Expression
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The circadian clock plays critical roles in orchestrating temporal regulation of diverse physiological processes. However, its role in mediating root‐associated immunity against soil‐borne pathogens in crops remains poorly understood. Here, we show that cotton circadian clock gates nighttime resistance to vascular fungal pathogen Verticillium ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Breeding crops with robust disease resistance often compromises yield, a persistent challenge in agricultural improvement. We report that modifying cell wall architecture through a xylan‐specific glycosyltransferase successfully breaks this trade‐off in wheat.

Bioconversion of ferulic acid and 4-vinylguaiacol by a white-rot fungus isolated from decaying wood [PDF]
, 2012 A white rot fungus isolated from decaying wood was investigated for its ability to convert ferulic acid to various valuable products. The fungus is able to convert ferulic acid to 4-vinylguaiacol, which is then metabolized further to acetovanillone. Both

Composting of Explosives Contaminated Soil Using the White Rot Fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium [PDF]
, 1992 Bioaugmentation using the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was found to be effective in enhancing TNT removal in lightly (i.e., below 100 mg/kg) contaminated soil. The percent reduction in TNT increased from 15% to 53% when soils were treated

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.
