Epitype-inducing temperatures drive DNA methylation changes during somatic embryogenesis in the long-lived gymnosperm Norway spruce
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-20)An epigenetic memory of the temperature sum experienced during embryogenesis is part of the climatic adaptation strategy of the long-lived gymnosperm Norway spruce. This memory has a lasting effect on the timing of bud ... -
Major transcriptomic differences are induced by warmer temperature conditions experienced during asexual and sexual reproduction in Fragaria vesca ecotypes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-14)A major challenge for plants in a rapidly changing climate is to adapt to rising temperatures. Some plants adapt to temperature conditions by generating an epigenetic memory that can be transmitted both meiotically and ... -
Methyl jasmonate, salicylic acid, and oxalic acid affects growth, inducible defenses, and pine weevil resistance in Norway spruce
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-06)The large pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is a major regeneration pest in commercial forestry. Pesticide application has historically been the preferred control method, but pesticides are now being phased out in several ... -
Parallel Microbial Ecology of Pasteuria and Nematode Species in Scottish Soils
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-01-28)Pasteuria spp. are endospore forming bacteria which act as natural antagonists to many of the most economically significant plant parasitic nematodes (PPNs). Highly species-specific nematode suppression may be observed in ... -
Plant root-exudates recruit hyperparasitic bacteria of phytonematodes by altered cuticle aging: Implications for biological control strategies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-06-09)Phytonematodes are globally important functional components of the belowground ecology in both natural and agricultural soils; they are a diverse group of which some species are economically important pests, and environmentally ... -
Plant-made vaccines against viral diseases in humans and farm animals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-03-28)Plants provide not only food and feed, but also herbal medicines and various raw materials for industry. Moreover, plants can be green factories producing high value bioproducts such as biopharmaceuticals and vaccines. ... -
Plant-produced Vaccines: Future Applications in Aquaculture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-08-12)Aquaculture has undergone rapid development in the past decades. It provides a large part of high-quality protein food for humans, and thus, a sustainable aquaculture industry is of great importance for the worldwide food ... -
Planting Material of Enset (Ensete ventricosum), a Key Food Security Crop in Southwest Ethiopia, Is a Key Element in the Dissemination of Plant-Parasitic Nematode Infection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-09)Enset (Ensete ventricosum), is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the family Musaceae, along with banana and plantain. Despite wild populations occurring in eastern, central and southern Africa, it is only in Ethiopia ... -
Potato Cyst Nematodes: A New Threat to Potato Production in East Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05-25)Potato cyst nematodes (PCN), such as Globodera rostochiensis and Globodera pallida, are quarantine restricted pests of potato causing major yield and financial losses to farmers. G. rostochiensis was first reported from ... -
Propagule pressure build-up by the invasive Hymenoscyphus fraxineus following its introduction to an ash forest inhabited by the native Hymenoscyphus albidus.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-30)Dieback of European ash, caused by the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus originating from Asia, has rapidly spread across Europe, and is threatening this keystone tree at a continental scale. High propagule pressure is ... -
Successful Production and Ligninolytic Activity of a Bacterial Laccase, Lac51, Made in Nicotiana benthamiana via Transient Expression
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-05-13)Giant panda could have bamboo as their exclusive diet for about 2 million years because of the contribution of numerous enzymes produced by their gut bacteria, for instance laccases. Laccases are blue multi-copper oxidases ... -
Transcriptional profiling of defense responses to Botrytis cinerea infection in leaves of Fragaria vesca plants soil-drenched with β-aminobutyric acid
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-08)Grey mold caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea can affect leaves, flowers, and berries of strawberry, causing severe pre- and postharvest damage. The defense elicitor β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) is ...
