Strigolactones serve as germination signals for several root-parasitic plant species within the Orobanchaceae family. Yet, their role in the life cycle of the facultatively parasitic genus has remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in .

Traditionally, flavor chemistry research has relied on sensory-guided chromatography techniques to identify individual compounds responsible for aroma or taste activity. Among the over 12,000 volatile compounds identified in foods, hundreds have been linked to aroma characteristics, and many taste-active compounds have also been discovered.

The microbiota influences the dietary preference for yeast (DPY). We previously identified four transposon insertion mutants in that significantly influence fly DPY, and three of these insertions were in genes that are associated with thiamine metabolism. Here, we tested if thiamine influences fly DPY in monoassociated flies.

To determine whether supplemental vitamin D improves event-free survival (EFS) in these patients, we conducted a comparative double-blind study of vitamin D vs. placebo.
