Lost and Found: Coffea stenophylla and C. affinis, the Forgotten Coffee Crop Species of West Africa.
Coffea arabica (Arabica) and C. canephora (robusta) almost entirely dominate global coffee production. Various challenges at the production (farm) level, including the increasing prevalence and severity of disease and pests and climate change, indicate that the coffee crop portfolio needs to be substantially diversified in order to ensure resilience and...Davis, Aaron P. ; Gargiulo, Roberta ; Fay, Michael F. ; Sarmu, Daniel ; Haggar, Jeremy

The role of the tryptophan-NAD + pathway in a mouse model of severe malnutrition induced liver dysfunction.
Mortality in children with severe malnutrition is strongly related to signs of metabolic dysfunction, such as hypoglycemia. Lower circulating tryptophan levels in children with severe malnutrition suggest a possible disturbance in the tryptophan-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (TRP-NAD+) pathway and subsequently in NAD+ dependent metabolism regulator sirtuin1 (SIRT1). Here we show that...Hu, Guanlan ; Ling, Catriona ; Chi, Lijun ; Thind, Mehakpreet K. ; Furse, Samuel …

A haploid pseudo-chromosome genome assembly for a keystone sagebrush species of western North American rangelands.
Increased ecological disturbances, species invasions, and climate change are creating severe conservation problems for several plant species that are widespread and foundational. Understanding the genetic diversity of these species and how it relates to adaptation to these stressors are necessary for guiding conservation and restoration efforts. This need is particularly...Melton, Anthony E ; Child, Andrew W ; Beard, Richard S ; Dumaguit, Carlos Dave C ; Forbey, Jennifer S …
