The Short Internodes-Related Sequence (SRS) family, a class of plant-specific transcription factors crucial for diverse biological processes, was systematically investigated in foxtail millet using pan-genome data from 110 core germplasm resources as...
Castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) can tolerate long periods of dehydration, allowing the investigation of gene circuits involved in drought tolerance. Genes from gibberellins, jasmonates, and auxin signaling are important for crosstalk in the develop...
Jasmonates (JAs) are essential signaling molecules that orchestrate plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses and regulate growth and developmental processes. MYC2, a core transcription factor in JA signaling, plays a central role in mediating t...
The focus of this study was the Intercontinental Biosphere Reserve of the Mediterranean (IBRM, part of the biodiversity hotspot of the Mediterranean Basin) and the Orchidaceae family, which is under-studied in the Moroccan part of the IBRM. For this...
The chromosome numbers of 56 populations belonging to 25 species and 4 varieties of Artemisia L. (Asteraceae) from China were examined, and those of 13 species and four varieties are reported here for the first time. The karyotypes of 39 populations...
Saponins from leaves of Quillaja lancifolia, a native species from southern Brazil, show potent immunoadjuvant activity in experimental vaccine formulations. The accumulation of the immunoadjuvant saponin fraction QB-90 is induced in cultured leaf di...
Soil active nitrogen (N) fractions are essential for plant growth and nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. While previous studies have primarily focused on the impact of vegetation restoration on soil active nitrogen in karst ecosystems, the r...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs approximately 20–24 nucleotides in length, which play a crucial role during gene regulation in plant–pathogen interaction. They negatively regulate the expression of target genes, primaril...
Large herbivore communities are changing globally, with populations of wild herbivores generally declining while domestic herbivore populations are increasing, influencing ecosystem function along with the impacts of climate change. Manipulative expe...
The roles of endophytes in Cannabis sativa (cannabis, hemp) remain poorly explored. While in vitro studies suggest that there can be several benefits, such as plant growth promotion and protection against pathogens, more in planta studies are needed....
