Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase 1 (GDPD1) plays an important function in the abiotic stress responses and participates in the accumulation of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) in plants, which is key to plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). However, the role of GDPD1 in plant responses to biotic stress remains poorly understood. This study characterized the antivirus function of the gene (designated as ) from Eureka lemon.

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, science communication played a crucial role in disseminating accurate information and promoting scientific literacy among the public. However, the rise of anti-intellectualism on social media platforms has posed significant challenges to science, scientists, and science communication, hindering effective public engagement with scientific affairs. This study aims to explore the mechanisms through which anti-intellectualism impacts science communication on social media platforms from the perspective of communication effect theory.

Laboratories play a central role in managing public health emergencies. The COVID-19 pandemic imposed unique challenges on global laboratory systems, including testing protocol uncertainties, supply shortages, rapid need for information dissemination, and disruptions to traditional training methods. In response, the WHO established the Public Health Laboratories (PHL) knowledge sharing webinar series whose goals were to respond to the increased demand in up-to-date and reliable information, which WHO is in a unique position to provide.

Introduction: Native endophytic microorganisms in tobacco seeds are closely related to their resistance to () infections. However, the role of the native seed core microbiome in the suppression of bacterial wilt disease (BWD) remains underexplored.
Methods: The characteristics of endophytic bacterial communities in both resistant and susceptible tobacco varieties were characterized using high-throughput sequencing technology.

Background: Early life gut microbiota is known to shape the immune system and has a crucial role in immune homeostasis. Only little is known about composition and dynamics of the intestinal microbiota in infants with congenital heart disease (CHD) and potential influencing factors.
Methods: We evaluated the intestinal microbial composition of neonates with CHD ( = 13) compared to healthy controls (HC, = 30).
