Summary: Two strains of Actinobacteria, CRXT-Y-14(T) and CRXT-G-22(T), isolated from healthy leaves and seeds of Xanthium sibiricum, display characteristic morphological features consistent with the Streptomyces genus. Phylogenetic analyses suggest CRXT-Y-14(T) may represent a novel species, while CRXT-G-22(T) is closely related to Streptomyces acidiscabies. Proper classification as Streptomyces xanthii and Streptomyces roseirectus is proposed based on genetic and phenotypic characteristics.

Summary: The sulfakinin (SK) signaling pathway plays a positive and significant role in feeding regulation in the Chinese white pine beetle, Dendroctonus armandi. The expression levels of SK and SKR genes vary between male and female adults, as well as different developmental stages, tissues, and starvation/re-feeding states. Targeting the SK pathway could provide a potential molecular target for pest control.

Summary: This study sequenced and characterized two CYP6 genes from Chinese white pine beetle and revealed their expression characteristics and functions. The expression of these genes varied significantly in different developmental stages and tissues, and was significantly induced after feeding on pine phloem or exposure to terpenoids. Silencing these genes increased sensitivity to terpenoids and led to a significant increase in adult mortality.

Summary: A transcription factor called RiMsn2 from Rhizophagus irregularis is identified and found to be highly conserved across AM fungal species. RiMsn2 is induced during the early stages of symbiosis and upregulated in mycorrhizal roots under severe drought conditions. It regulates osmotic homeostasis and trehalose contents and plays a critical role in arbuscule formation and enhancing plant tolerance to drought stress.
