Living yeast-based biostimulants: different genes for the same results?

Nowadays, many products are available in the plant biostimulants market. Among them, living yeast-based biostimulants are also commercialized. Given the living aspect of these last products, the reproducibility of their effects should be investigated to ensure end-users' confidence.

Elicitation of Roots and AC-DC with PEP-13 Peptide Shows Differential Defense Responses in Multi-Omics.

The root extracellular trap (RET) has emerged as a specialized compartment consisting of root AC-DC and mucilage. However, the RET's contribution to plant defense is still poorly understood. While the roles of polysaccharides and glycoproteins secreted by root AC-DC have started to be elucidated, how the low-molecular-weight exudates of the RET contribute to root defense is poorly known.

Preventive Medicine Physicians' Role in Health Care Organizations' Pursuit of the Triple Aim.

Context: The Institute for Healthcare Improvement's Triple Aim is rooted in improving population health and therefore requires a focus on prevention as well as management of disease. Preventive medicine (PM) physicians are uniquely trained in clinical medicine as well as health care delivery and systems-based practice, thus potentially positioning them to lead population health and contribute to the Triple Aim.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to (1) describe PM physicians' contributions related to the Triple Aim and (2) describe PM physician satisfaction with these activities.

New Insights into Plant Extracellular DNA. A Study in Soybean Root Extracellular Trap.

exDNA is found in various organisms, including plants. However, plant exDNA has thus far received little attention related to its origin and role in the RET (root extracellular trap). In this study, we performed the first high-throughput genomic sequencing of plant exDNA from a with worldwide interest: soybean ( (L.

Root extracellular traps versus neutrophil extracellular traps in host defence, a case of functional convergence?

The root cap releases cells that produce massive amounts of mucilage containing polysaccharides, proteoglycans, extracellular DNA (exDNA) and a variety of antimicrobial compounds. The released cells - known as border cells or border-like cells - and mucilage secretions form networks that are defined as root extracellular traps (RETs). RETs are important players in root immunity.
