Antioxidant and Mineral Composition of Three Wild Leafy Species: A Comparison Between Microgreens and Baby Greens

open access: yesFoods, 2019
Wild plants may play an important role in human nutrition and health and, among them, many are the leafy species. We hypothesized that the wild greens could be profitably grown as microgreens and baby greens, specialty products whose market is increasing.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

An Integrated Study of Ramie (Boehmeria nivea), and Its Wild, Cultivated, and Feral Forms

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Feralization, the re‐establishment of wild populations from domesticated ancestors, can involve multiple parallel character reversions and potentially also rampant gene flow with cultivated and/or naturally wild material.

A unifying concept for the dependence of whole-crop N:P ratio on biomass : theory and experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background and Aims: Numerous estimates have been made of the concentrations of N and P required for good growth of crop species but they have not been defined by any unifying model.

A walk on the wild side: Oryza species as source for rice abiotic stress tolerance

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2017
Oryza sativa, the common cultivated rice, is one of the most important crops for human consumption, but production is increasingly threatened by abiotic stresses. Although many efforts have resulted in breeding rice cultivars that are relatively tolerant

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Pulsed evolution shaped extant angiosperm pollen disparity

open access: yesNature Communications
Pollen grains, the male gametophyte of seed plants, are enclosed within sporopollenin walls that yield remarkable structural diversity and exceptional preservation, making them invaluable proxies for past plant diversity.

The chromosome-level genome assembly and genes involved in biosynthesis of nervonic acid of Malania oleifera

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Nervonic acid (C24:1 Δ15, NA) is a very long-chain monounsaturated fatty acid, a clinically indispensable resource in maintaining the brain and nerve cells development and regeneration.

Species concepts and relationships in wild and cultivated potatoes [PDF]

open access: yes
Wild and cultivated potatoes (Solanum section Petota) present challenges to taxonomists arising from lack of clearly defined morphological character differences among many species, phenotypic plasticity, a range of ploidy levels from diploid to hexaploid,

Coronaviruses in Avian Species – Review with Focus on Epidemiology and Diagnosis in Wild Birds

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Research, 2018
Coronaviruses (CoVs) are a large group of enveloped viruses with a single-strand RNA genome, which continuously circulate in mammals and birds and pose a threat to livestock, companion animals, and humans.
