Interplay between Developmental Flexibility and Determinism in the Evolution of Mimetic Heliconius Wing Patterns
Current Biology, 29(23), 3996–4009.e4.
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Evolution; Biological Mimicry; Butterflies / growth & development; Phenotype; Pigmentation; Selection, Genetic; Wings, Animal / growth & development; Wings, Animal / physiology
TL;DR:
The role that the signaling ligand WntA plays in generating mimetic wing patterns in Heliconius butterflies, a group with extraordinary mimicry-related wing pattern diversity, is explored, highlighting a surprising unpredictability in the developmental paths underlying convergence in a recent radiation.

Stand age and species traits alter the effects of understory removal on litter decomposition and nutrient dynamics in subtropical Eucalyptus plantations

TL;DR:
The results indicate that the role of understory plants in mediating litter decomposition and nutrient mineralization is more important than overstory trees, and it can be altered by stand age and plant species.

Diet is not the primary driver of bacterial community structure in the gut of litter-feeding cockroaches
BMC MICROBIOLOGY, 19(1).
author keywords: Insects; Gut microbiota; Deep sequencing; Cockroaches; Lignocellulose
MeSH headings : Animals; Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / genetics; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Cockroaches / microbiology; DNA, Bacterial / genetics; DNA, Ribosomal / genetics; Diet; Gastrointestinal Microbiome; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing / methods; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Isoptera / microbiology; Lignin / metabolism; Phylogeny; Plant Leaves / chemistry; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S / genetics
TL;DR:
The results indicate that diet is not the primary driver of bacterial community structure in the gut of wood- and litter-feeding cockroaches, and the high similarity to the gut microbiota of omnivorous cockroached suggests that the dietary components that are actually digested do not differ fundamentally between feeding groups.

Effects of global change factors and living roots on root litter decomposition in a Qinghai-Tibet alpine meadow
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 9.
MeSH headings : Biomass; Carbon / analysis; Climate Change; Ecosystem; Nitrogen / analysis; Nutrients; Phosphorus / analysis; Plant Roots; Soil / chemistry; Temperature; Tibet

Effectiveness of Fungicides and Their Application Timing for the Management of Sorghum Foliar Anthracnose in the Mid-Atlantic United States
PLANT DISEASE, 103(11), 2804–2811.
author keywords: chemical; economic impacts; field crops; fungi
MeSH headings : Agriculture / methods; Colletotrichum / drug effects; Fungicides, Industrial / pharmacology; North Carolina; Plant Diseases / prevention & control; Sorghum / microbiology; Time; Virginia
TL;DR:
Results suggest that when disease onset occurs at or prior to boot, a single application of pyraclostrobin-containing fungicide at or just prior to flowering reduces anthracnose, protects yield, and increases income, however, when disease is absent or severity is low prior to Flowering, fungicide application may not be profitable.

Dominant, Heritable Resistance to Stewart’s Wilt in Maize Is Associated with an Enhanced Vascular Defense Response to Infection with <i>Pantoea stewartii
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®, 32(12), 1581–1597.
Contributors: P. Doblas-Lbéfiez, K. Deng*, M. Vasquez *, L. Giese*, P. Cobine *, J. Kolkman *, H. King*, T. Jamann *
author keywords: bacterial pathogenesis; electron-dense materials; maize; Pantoea stewartii; plant responses to pathogens; secretion and cell wall changes; Stewart's bacterial wilt; type-3 secretion; vascular defense response; WtsE; xylem-dwelling bacteria
MeSH headings : Disease Resistance / genetics; Genome, Plant / genetics; Pantoea / physiology; Seedlings / microbiology; Xylem / microbiology; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / microbiology
TL;DR:
It is shown that seedlings of maize inbred lines with pan1 mutations are highly resistant to Stewart's bacterial wilt of maize (SW), and it is proposed that this vascular defense response restricts P. stewartii spread through the vasculature, reducing both systemic bacterial colonization of the xylem network and consequent wilting.
