The paper identifies a new Penicillium biforme lineage, cheesy, selected for food fermentation, with genetic and phenotypic differences from P. camemberti and traits advantageous for cheesemaking.

This study examines common and species-specific responses of phytohormones and morphological traits to drought and herbivory in three plant species, revealing shared and unique regulatory pathways.

This study shows poplar trees can distinguish between pathogenic, mutualistic, and saprotrophic fungi using airborne volatile organic compounds (VOCs), leading to specific root and leaf responses.

The paper studies VOC emissions from dryland soils after rewetting, finding strong emissions of sesquiterpenes and benzenoids that can form ozone and aerosols.

This study examines how different terpenoid chemotypes in Tanacetum vulgare respond to root-chewing wireworms and phloem-feeding aphids, revealing chemotype-specific defense strategies.

The paper shows isoprene, a plant volatile, acts as a short-distance immune signal in field conditions, enhancing resistance in neighboring plants to bacterial pathogens.

This study investigates metabolic interactions between Laccaria bicolor and Trichoderma species through VOCs, hyphal metabolomes, and soluble metabolites in dual cultures.

This study examines how pipecolic acid treatment affects terpenoid composition in different tissues of tansy plants, revealing tissue-specific responses and metabolic differentiation.
