Cellulose Binding Protein from the Parasitic Nematode Heterodera schachtii Interacts with Arabidopsis Pectin Methylesterase: Cooperative Cell Wall Modification during Parasitism
PLANT CELL, 20(11), 3080–3093.
MeSH headings : Animals; Arabidopsis / enzymology; Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / parasitology; Arabidopsis Proteins / genetics; Arabidopsis Proteins / metabolism; Carboxylic Ester Hydrolases / metabolism; Cell Wall / metabolism; DNA, Complementary / genetics; Genes, Helminth; Molecular Sequence Data; Plants, Genetically Modified / enzymology; Plants, Genetically Modified / genetics; Plants, Genetically Modified / parasitology; RNA, Helminth / genetics; RNA, Plant / genetics; Tylenchoidea / genetics; Tylenchoidea / metabolism
TL;DR:
Exercise of CBP in the pme3 knockout mutant revealed that PME3 is required but not the sole mechanism for CBP overexpression phenotype, indicating that CBP directly interacts with PME 3 thereby activating and potentially targeting this enzyme to aid cyst nematode parasitism.

2008 review
Disrupted female reproductive physiology following neonatal exposure to phytoestrogens or estrogen specific ligands is associated with decreased GnRH activation and kisspeptin fiber density in the hypothalamus
[Review of ]. NEUROTOXICOLOGY, 29(6), 988–997.
author keywords: Genistein; Equal; Soy; Isoflavones; Gonadotropin; Puberty; Development; Endocrine disruption; DPN; PPT
MeSH headings : Analysis of Variance; Animals; Animals, Newborn; Estradiol / analogs & derivatives; Estradiol / pharmacology; Estrous Cycle / drug effects; Female; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone / metabolism; Hypothalamus / drug effects; Kisspeptins; Nerve Fibers / metabolism; Phenols / pharmacology; Proteins / metabolism; Pyrazoles / pharmacology; Rats; Receptors, Estrogen / agonists; Reproductive Physiological Phenomena / drug effects
TL;DR:
The data suggest that neonatal exposure to EDCs can suppress GnRH activity in adulthood, and that ERalpha plays a pivotal role in this process.

Detection of Quantitative Trait Loci and Inheritance of Root-knot Nematode Resistance in Sweetpotato
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 133(6), 844–851.
author keywords: Ipomoea batatas; Meloidogyne incognita; RKN; quantitative trait loci
TL;DR:
Based on molecular and phenotypic data, RKN resistance in sweetpotato is hypothesized to be conferred by several genes, but at least nine AFLP markers are associated with genomic regions that have the biggest effect in the number of egg masses of RKN produced in the root system.
