INTRODUCTION: Earliness of tuberisation and the quality of potato tubers are important traits in potato breeding. The qualitative traits rely on the metabolite profile of tubers, which are storage organs and net importers of assimilates. Thus, the quality of tubers largely depend...
Plants exude a diverse cocktail of metabolites into the soil as response to exogenous and endogenous influence. So far, root exudates have only been studied under artificial conditions due to methodological difficulties. In this study, each five perennial grass and forb species were investigated ...
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly linked to gut microbial dysbiosis. To date, most studies have been limited to bacterial taxa, neglecting viruses and fungi, and their interactions. Here we performed shotgun metagenomic and ITS2 sequencing on fecal s...
Medulloblastomas (MBs) are malignant pediatric brain tumors that are molecularly and clinically very heterogenous. The application of omics technologies - mainly studying nucleic acids - has significantly improved MB classification and stratification, but treatment options are still unsatisfactor...
Ulmus parvifolia (U. parvifolia) was traditionally used in the treatment of some diseases such as inflammation, diarrhea and fevers. With the wide application of molecular biotechnology in plant development and utilization, the pharmaceutical value and chemical composition of th...
