-
(Nature Research, 2020-11)Mitosis has been validated by numerous anti-cancer drugs as being a druggable process, and selective inhibition of parasite proliferation provides an obvious opportunity for therapeutic intervention against malaria. ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2021-01)Polyploidy has been hypothesized to be both an evolutionary dead-end and a source for evolutionary innovation and species diversification. Although polyploid organisms, especially plants, abound, the apparent nonrandom ...
-
(Sociedade Brasileira de Fitopatologia, 2020-10)Penja pepper (Piper nigrum) produced in Cameroon has long been recognized for its exceptional organoleptic quality. The pepper vine is grown using a support tree (Spondias mombin) in Cameroon. A root disease is associated ...
-
(BioMed Central, 2020)BACKGROUND: Flagellar motility is an efficient means of movement that allows bacteria to successfully colonize and compete with other microorganisms within their respective environments. The production and functioning ...
-
(Springer, 2021-01)Human activities such as agriculture and mining are leading causes of water pollution worldwide. Individual contaminants are known to negatively affect microbial communities. However, the effect of multifaceted pollution ...
-
(Springer, 2021-02)Introduced species face numerous biological barriers before they can establish in a new environment. Understanding how they overcome these obstacles is crucial for the development of effective risk assessment and regulation. ...
-
(American Chemical Society, 2020-10)A facile synthetic methodology has been developed to prepare multifaceted polymeric prodrugs that are targeted, biodegradable, and nontoxic, and used for the delivery of combination therapy. This is the first instance of ...
-
(Wiley, 2020-11)Gall‐forming hymenopterans of Eucalyptus species are highly successful invaders causing significant damage in non‐native plantation forests. To date, at least 16 of these species have been recorded as invasive eucalypt ...
-
(Wiley, 2020-08)Whole‐genome duplication (WGD) is a dramatic, common event in plants. Because of the detrimental effects arising from doubling the entire chromosome set, such as minority cytotype exclusion, genomic instability, mitotic ...
-
(Wiley, 2021-05)1. Leptocybe invasa is native to Australia and induces galls on various species of Eucalyptus. Two genetically distinct lineages of this wasp have been detected outside its native range, namely, Leptocybe Lineage A and ...
-
(Springer, 2021-01)Roots act as a biological filter that exclusively allows only a portion of the soil-associated microbial diversity to infect the plant. This microbial diversity includes organisms both beneficial and detrimental to plants. ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02)The Repeat-Induced Point (RIP) mutation pathway is a fungus-specific genome defense mechanism that mitigates the deleterious consequences of repeated genomic regions and transposable elements (TEs). RIP mutates targeted ...
-
(Springer, 2020-06)Studies have demonstrated that semiochemical-baited intercept traps differ in their performance for sampling insects, but we have an incomplete understanding of how and why intercept trap design effects vary among insects. ...
-
African horse sickness virus NS4 is a nucleocytoplasmic protein that localizes to PML nuclear bodies (Society for General Microbiology, 2020-04)African horse sickness virus (AHSV) is the causative agent of the often fatal disease African horse sickness in equids. The non-structural protein NS4 is the only AHSV protein that localizes to the nucleus. Here we report ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020-10)Type 2 diabetes is a multifactorial disease and drugs with multifunctional properties are required. The peptide, SQSPA, was reported to be a potent and gastrointestinally stable α-glucosidase inhibitory peptide. In this ...
-
(Brill, 2020-07)The products of secondary xylem are of significant biological and commercial importance, and as a result, the biology of secondary growth and how intrinsic and extrinsic factors influence this process have been the subject ...
-
(MDPI, 2020-09)Considering the global health threat posed by kidney disease burden, a search for new nephroprotective drugs from our local flora could prove a powerful strategy to respond to this health threat. In this study we ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2020-08)For most sequenced flowering plants, multiple whole-genome duplications (WGDs) are found. Duplicated genes following WGD often have different fates that can quickly disappear again, be retained for long(er) periods, or ...
-
(MDPI, 2020-09)The Antarctic continent is widely considered to be one of the most hostile biological habitats on Earth. Despite extreme environmental conditions, the ice-free areas of the continent, which constitute some 0.44% of the ...
