We present concise results of method validation for trehalose quantitation by LC-MS/MS in spruce ectomycorrhizal roots in order to describe spruce health status, mainly in connection to contamination by a pathogenic fungus, . The procedure is based on Rogatsky et al. (2005) developed for human plasma. We found out that the best extraction yield was achieved with 80% methanol/water (v/v) solution and optimal extraction temperature was set between 50-60°C. In contrast to previous papers, we minimized the activity of trehalase enzyme by putting root samples into liquid N immediately after root excavation, followed by freeze-drying in order to stop trehalase activity. Higher content of trehalose was recorded in healthy trees, confirming the idea that ectomycorrhiza plays a significant role in plant-pathogen interactions.

Strain LCG007, isolated from Lu Chao Harbor's intertidal water, phylogenetically represents a novel genus within the family Rhodobacteraceae. Metabolically, it possesses a wide array of amino acid metabolic genes that enable it to thrive on both amino acids or peptides. Also, it could hydrolyze peptides containing D-amino acids, highlighting its potential role in the cycling of refractory organic matter.

Objective: To investigate the physiological characteristics of subspecies (Bti) with double mutations of and genes and to assess the activity of Bti against larvae of under different external factors, so as to provide the theoretical evidence for the use of engineered bacteria of Bti for effective mosquito control.
Methods: wild-type strain Bt-59 and Bt-59 strain with mutation [Bt-59 (Δ)] were cultured in nutrient broth media for 24 hours, and Bt-59 strains with mutation [Bt-59 (Δ)] and double mutations of and [Bt-59 (Δ)] were cultured in nutrient broth media for 48 hours. Then, 5 μL of culture media were transferred to glass sides, and cell morphology and mother cell lysis were observed under an optical microscope.
Transgenerational Plasticity of Maternal Hemolymph Trehalose in Aphids.
Arch Insect Biochem Physiol

College of Agriculture, Ibaraki University, Inashiki, Japan.
Aphids exhibit a unique reproductive strategy known as pseudoplacental viviparity, in which embryos develop internally and are thought to receive nutrients such as sugars and amino acids directly from the maternal hemolymph through an ovariole sheath, bypassing the need for traditional yolk storage. This system enables viviparous aphids to adapt to diverse and potentially stressful environments by transmitting maternal environmental cues that influence transgenerational plasticity. However, the mechanisms underlying this nutrient-mediated plasticity are poorly understood.

Trehalose (Tre) is composed of two molecules of D-glucose joined by an α,α-1,1 glucosidic linkage. Because Tre is utilized by the gut microbiome and enhances gut immunity in chickens, it is used as a feed ingredient. However, taste preference and metabolic dynamics of Tre in chickens are not fully understood.

Cadmium (Cd) is recognized as one of the most toxic heavy metal in the environment that causes pronounced phytotoxicity. This study investigated the physiological and biochemical responses and detoxification mechanisms of Hemarthria compressa under various concentrations of Cd stress (0, 30, 60, 90, and 270 mg·kg). Our research findings indicate that the growth and photosynthetic capacity of H.
