Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a key regulator of physiological processes in pollen grains, and an essential component of stigma exudate. The mechanisms of this redox-based regulatory system and its features in different plant groups are still unclear. For two species from different families (tobacco and lily), the dynamics of total ROS, O generation, and HO concentration in stigma exudate were examined using EPR spectroscopy and quantitative colorimetric analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzed the intestinal microbiota diversity among adolescents with obesity and those with normal weight, focusing on different ethnic groups, specifically Russians and Buryats.
  • - Researchers utilized metasequencing of the 16S rRNA gene to evaluate alpha diversity using several statistical indices, revealing significant differences in microbiota between the groups studied.
  • - Findings suggest that alpha diversity indices are useful for assessing variations in intestinal microbiota linked to complex conditions like adolescent obesity, although careful consideration of their application is necessary.

Pollen germination in vivo on wet stigmas is assisted by the receptive fluid-stigma exudate. Its exact composition is still unknown because only some components have been studied. For the first time, hormonal screening was carried out, and the fatty acid (FA) composition of lipid-rich () and sugar-rich () exudates was studied.

Abnormalities in gut microbiota diversity are considered important mechanisms in metabolic disorders in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). However, the data on the association of these disorders with the PCOS phenotype remain controversial. The objectives of this study were to estimate the alpha diversity of the gut microbiota of healthy women and PCOS patients depending on phenotype.
