Three identification methods for the resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum previously-reported in Brassicaceae crops were compared using 5 cauliflower varieties under the same condition to develop the effective screening technique in cauliflower. The results showed that the correlation between inoc...

Two new species, Phaeoclavulina aurea and P. fulva, were discovered and described from North China. Identification was based on morphological observations combined with phylogenetic analysis of nrITS–nrLSU sequences. Phaeoclavulina aurea is characterized by its pale yellow to golden yellow basidioma...

Glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHS) are the most widely used herbicides worldwide, yet their potential endocrine-disrupting effects in humans remain inadequately studied. We analyzed data from 1532 participants aged ≥6 years in the 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Su...

In nature, plants are often exposed to ever-changing external stimuli during their growth and development, including pathogen infection, drought, salinity and various other biotic and abiotic stresses. These extracellular stimuli are perceived by the plant through a highly elaborate signaling networ...
