Article Abstract
Although interactions between microalgae and bacteria are observed in both natural environment and the laboratory, the modalities of coexistence of bacteria inside microalgae phycospheres in laboratory cultures are mostly unknown. Here, we focused on well-controlled cultures of the model green picoalga and the most abundant member of its phycosphere, . The prevalence of in cultures raises questions about how this bacterium maintains itself under laboratory conditions in the microalga culture. The results showed that did not promote growth in the absence of vitamin B while depended on to grow in synthetic medium, most likely to obtain organic carbon sources provided by the microalgae. grew on a range of lipids, including triacylglycerols that are known to be produced by in culture during abiotic stress. Genomic screening revealed the absence of genes of two particular modes of quorum-sensing in genomes which refutes the idea that these bacterial communication systems operate in this genus. To date, the 'opportunistic' behaviour of in the laboratory is limited to several phytoplanktonic species including Chlorophyta such as . This would indicate a preferential occurrence of in association with these specific microalgae under optimum laboratory conditions.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi may promote growth and stress resilience of plants, particularly under water-deficit conditions. However, interactions among mycorrhizal fungi, wheat plants, and aphids like the English grain aphid Sitobion avenae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) under water-deficit stress are still not well understood. Here, we examined the colonization of the fungus Claroideoglomus etunicatum (Glomerales: Claroideoglomeraceae) on wheat, and its effects on development and behavior of S.
Microglia play important roles in maintaining homeostasis and immunoreactive defense in the central nervous system including retina. To accomplish such a wide range of functions, microglia are highly heterogeneous. Dark microglia (DM) were recently identified by electron microscopy (EM).

A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric chlorocyclization of 1,6-enynes has been described. Controlling the chloride ion concentration in the system by substrate design is the key to achieving asymmetric chlorinated cyclization. In the presence of Pd(PhCN)Cl and chiral phosphoramidite ligands, the reaction accesses diverse chiral ()-α-chloromethylene-γ-butyrolactams with excellent selectivity and enantioselectivity.

An electrochemical reductive bimolecular cycloaddition of 2-arylideneindane-1,3-diones has been reported for the synthesis of spirocyclopentanole indane-1,3-diones bearing five contiguous stereocenters with vicinal tetrasubstituted stereocenters, especially involving a quaternary carbon center, in moderate to good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities. The present protocol features mild reaction conditions, no external chemical redox reagents, excellent atom economy, and gram-scale synthesis. In addition, a mechanistic investigation indicates that the reactions proceed through a radical pathway.
