Sulfur (S) is a major heteroatom in organic matter. This project evaluated spatial variability in the concentration and molecular-level composition of organic sulfur along gradients of depth and latitude. We measured the concentration of total organic sulfur (TOS) directly from whole seawater. Ou...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) storage roots exhibit significant variation in starch content among cultivars, yet the metabolic and molecular mechanisms governing carbon allocation between storage and structural components remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated carbon partitioning in...
Lipids, fundamental constituents of cell membranes, cellular energy carriers, and signaling molecules, play a pivotal role in the interaction between pathogens and hosts. During microbial infections, lipids not only fuel the activation of the immune system but also, acting as signaling molec...
