X-ray crystal structure, UV–Vis and NMR spectroscopic, and molecular docking studies of pyribencarb isomers

Abstract The crystal structures of the pyribencarb E and Z stereoisomers were determined using single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The isomers were confirmed a single data respectively by crystal analysis, LC-UVD mass spectrometry, and NM...

DNA barcoding and phylogenetic insights into the selected endemic flora of the Western Himalayas

Abstract The Himalayan region is recognized as one of the world’s major biodiversity hotspots due to its remarkable altitudinal variation, high species richness, and exceptional endemism. Despite its ecological significance, the endemic flo...

Multi-trait evaluation of almond germplasm using the MGIDI method: optimizing yield and nutritional quality

Abstract Almond (Prunus dulcis) is a nutrient-rich tree nut of global economic and dietary importance, with Iran serving as a key center of genetic diversity. This study evaluated 78 Iranian almond genotypes for pomological traits and major...

Assessment of the Nutritional and Medicinal Potential of Tubers from Hairy Stork’s-Bill (<i>Erodium crassifolium</i> L ’Hér), a Wild Plant Species Inhabiting Arid Southeast Mediterranean Regions

Emerging needs for diversifying human diet and to explore novel therapeutic procedures have led to increasing attempts to retrieve traditional nourishments and recruit beneficial wild plant species. Species of the genus Erodium (Geraniaceae...

The Infection Route of Tomato Zonate Spot Virus in the Digestive System of Its Insect Vector Frankliniella occidentalis

Tomato zonate spot virus (TZSV) is a phytopathogen of the genus Orthotospovirus (Bunyaviridae) that is widespread in many areas of Southwest China. TZSV is mainly transmitted by Frankliniella occidentalis, but its exact infection route rema...

Applications of nanobodies in plant science and biotechnology

Microparticle Bombardment as a Tool in Plant Science and Agricultural Biotechnology

Microparticle bombardment technology has evolved as a method for delivering exogenous nucleic acids into plant cells and is a commonly employed technique in plant science. Desired genetic material is precipitated onto micron-sized metal par...

The emerging and uncultivated potential of CRISPR technology in plant science

Plant Sciences

Plant sciences means to reflect the scientific study of plants, their environment, and how to use them. Preparing an overview of plant sciences during a pandemic necessarily changes one's perspective of the field, past and present. Growing ...

Identification and functional characterization of the MYB transcription factor GmMYBLJ in soybean leaf senescence

Leaf senescence is an important agronomic trait that significantly influences the quality and yield of soybeans. v-Myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog (MYB) transcription factors are considered crucial regulators governing leaf ...

Multivariate analysis for agronomic, physiological, macro, and micronutrient traits of exotic vegetable amaranth genotypes

Abstract The genus amaranth is comprised of 60–70 species. This climate hardy plant is grown as a vegetable as well as cereal crop in many areas of the world. Current study multivariate analysis was used to characterize the exotic vegetable...

Enset Bacterial Wilt (Xanthomonas vasicola pv. musacearum): Farmer Perspectives, Physicochemical Characterization, and Phenotypic Variation Among Strains

Enset is a staple food for approximately 25% of Ethiopia’s population. It is threatened by a range of biotic and abiotic stress, of which bacterial wilt is the most significant. This study investigated the enset bacterial wilt (EBW) status ...

Blue Light Upregulates Auxin Signaling and Stimulates Root Formation in Irregular Rooting of Rosemary Cuttings

Irregular rooting of rosemary stem cuttings, causing differences in either stem maturation or responses to growth conditions, restricts uniform production. Here, rooting efficiency of apical, middle, and basal cuttings from rosemary stems w...

Microbial Electrosynthesis Reshapes Energy Metabolism and Physiology in Clostridium ljungdahlii

ABSTRACT Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) enables a variety of microorganisms, particularly acetogens, to utilize electrical energy in the form of electrons to produce valuable compounds from CO2. In the closely related process of gas ferme...

Intradiol ring cleavage dioxygenases from herbivorous spider mites as a new detoxification enzyme family in animals

Abstract Background Generalist herbivores such as the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae thrive on a wide variety of plants and can rapidly adapt to novel hosts. What traits enable polyphagous herbivores to cope with the diversity ...

Prolyl Hydroxylase Paralogs in Nicotiana benthamiana Show High Similarity With Regard to Substrate Specificity

Plant glycoproteins display a characteristic type of O-glycosylation where short arabinans or larger arabinogalactans are linked to hydroxyproline. The conversion of proline to 4-hydroxyproline is accomplished by prolyl-hydroxylases (P4Hs)....
