Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.

Engineering the bacterial nutrition strategy to control plant diseases

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This commentary on Wang et al. (2025) and Phan et al. (2025) highlights previously undiscovered Xanthomonas pathways for nutrition acquisition, explains how Xanthomonas bacteria hijack host molecular machinery through their effector proteins, and discusses how these studies can be used to develop new disease resistance mechanisms.

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Weight Loss: A Critical Review of Mechanisms

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT GLP‐1 receptor agonist medications have the potential to promote marked weight loss, but maximal and sustained benefit may be compromised by poor compliance and cessation of use. Development of next‐generation medications that address current obstacles to effective use and development of effective adjunct treatments will benefit from better ...

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

Tuning Xylan Polymerisation Enhanced Fibre Digestibility Without Biomass Loss in Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leymus chinensis (sheepgrass), a dominant perennial grass of the Eurasian Steppe, is a crucial source of carbohydrates and energy for ruminants. However, the lignocellulose recalcitrance severely limits its digestibility. Here, we targeted xylan, a major hemicellulose interacting with cellulose and lignin in cell wall. To improve digestibility,

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.

Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
