Microsatellite analysis of a broad hybrid zone in Aesculus (Sapindales) – Inferences in genetic structure and evolution
International Journal of Plant Sciences, 169(5), 647–657.
author keywords: aesculus; hybrid zone; ISSR; long-distance gene flow; microsatellites
TL;DR:
The data from this study and previous allozyme and chloroplast DNA studies indicate that both historical localized gene flow and recurrent long‐distant gene flow have contributed to the existence of the hybrid zone, that is, its origin via historical localized genes flow, while its maintenance involves ongoing long‐distance pollen dispersal.

Resin flow responses to fertilization, wounding and fungal inoculation in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) in North Carolina
TREE PHYSIOLOGY, 28(6), 847–853.
author keywords: Dendroctonus frontalis; hypersensitive response; Ophiostoma minus; southern pine beetle
MeSH headings : Animals; Coleoptera; Fertilizers; North Carolina; Pinus taeda / drug effects; Pinus taeda / growth & development; Pinus taeda / microbiology; Pinus taeda / parasitology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Diseases / parasitology; Trees / drug effects; Trees / growth & development; Trees / microbiology; Trees / parasitology; Wounds and Injuries
TL;DR:
The long-lasting effects of fungal inoculation on resin flow, as well as the response to fertilization, suggest that acquired resistance through induced resin flow aids in decreasing susceptibility of loblolly pine to southern pine beetle.

Phenotypic plasticity and genotype by environment interaction for olfactory behavior in Drosophila melanogaster
GENETICS, 179(2), 1079–1088.
MeSH headings : Animals; Behavior, Animal; Drosophila Proteins / genetics; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Drosophila melanogaster / physiology; Environment; Female; Gene Expression Profiling; Genes, Insect; Genetic Complementation Test; Genetic Variation; Genotype; Male; Mutation; Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis; Phenotype; Phylogeny; Quantitative Trait Loci; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Smell / genetics; Smell / physiology; Transferrin / genetics
TL;DR:
It is found that ∼50% of phenotypic variation in adult olfactory behavior is attributable to GEI, and transcriptional analysis revealed that only 20 genes show GEI at the level of gene expression [false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05], some of which are associated with physiological responses to environmental chemicals.

Stem and leaf hydraulics of congeneric tree species from adjacent tropical savanna and forest ecosystems
OECOLOGIA, 155(3), 405–415.

MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Brazil; Ecosystem; Hymenaea / physiology; Melastomataceae / physiology; Plant Leaves / physiology; Plant Stems / physiology; Primulaceae / physiology; Styrax / physiology; Trees / physiology; Tropical Climate; Water / physiology
TL;DR:
The results of this study suggest that the relative success of savanna over forest species in savanna is related in part to their ability to cope with drought, which is determined more by leaf than by stem hydraulic traits.

Influence of moisture content and cultivation duration on Clostridium thermocellum 27405 end-product formation in solid substrate cultivation on Avicel
BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY, 99(7), 2664–2671.
author keywords: C. thermocellum; Avicel; solid substrate cultivation (SSC); moisture content; thermophilic
MeSH headings : Cellulose / metabolism; Clostridium thermocellum / growth & development; Clostridium thermocellum / metabolism; Water / chemistry
TL;DR:
Performance of C. thermocellum 27405 in SSC was more dependent on the kinetic properties rather than the thermodynamic properties of substrate moisture content, and cessation of metabolism was observed prior to complete Avicel conversion; the mechanisms involved need further investigation.

Instrained compounds may be amenable to pathway engineering for tissue-specific expression in susceptible host plants as a defense against aflatoxin contamination and show promise as protectants during crop storage.

High frequency (900 MHz) low amplitude (5 V m(-1)) electromagnetic field: a genuine environmental stimulus that affects transcription, translation, calcium and energy charge in tomato
PLANTA, 227(4), 883–891.
author keywords: mode stirred reverberation chamber; radiofrequency electromagnetic field; stress; tomato; wound-like responses
MeSH headings : Calcium / metabolism; Electromagnetic Fields; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant / drug effects; Solanum lycopersicum / genetics; Solanum lycopersicum / metabolism; Solanum lycopersicum / radiation effects; Protein Biosynthesis / radiation effects; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Transcription, Genetic / radiation effects
TL;DR:
These responses occur very soon after exposure, strongly suggesting that they are the direct consequence of application of radio-frequency fields and their similarities to wound responses strongly suggests that this radiation is perceived by plants as an injurious stimulus.

Pathway, inhibition and regulation of methyl tertiary butyl ether oxidation in a filamentous fungus, Graphium sp
APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 77(6), 1359–1365.
author keywords: methyl tertiary butyl alcohol; cometabolism; Graphium sp; tertiary butyl alcohol; tertiary butyl formate; alkane monooxygenase
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / metabolism; Biodegradation, Environmental; Methyl Ethers / antagonists & inhibitors; Methyl Ethers / metabolism; Mycelium / metabolism; Oxidation-Reduction; Propane / metabolism; tert-Butyl Alcohol / metabolism
TL;DR:
The results collectively suggest that propane-grown mycelia only have a limited capacity to degrade TBA, and the regulatory effects of MTBE oxidation intermediates proposed for MTBE-degrading organisms such as Mycobacterium austroafricanum are not universally relevant mechanisms for MT BE-degRading organisms.
