First Report of Fusarium acuminatum Causing Wilt Disease on Vincetoxicum stauntonii in China and the Control Strategy of Ethylicin via Membrane Damage and Oxidative Stress

Vincetoxicum stauntonii is a valuable traditional Chinese medicinal herb widely used in clinical practice for managing various respiratory disorders in China. However, a severe wilt disease recently prevailed in major V. stauntonii cultivation regions in Hubei Province from May to August 2025, resulting in an overall d...

Fermented Polygonatum kingianum polysaccharide exerts enhanced anti-obesity effects by modulating the gut microbiota-GDCA-TGR5 axis.

Probiotic-fermented Polygonatum kingianum polysaccharide (FPKP0) was previously confirmed to exhibit enhanced anti-adipogenic activity in 3T3-L1 cells in vitro owing to altered structural, prompting an examination of whether this modified FPKP0 exerts superior anti-obesity effects in vivo via related mechanism in high-...

Comparative Phylogenomics Reveals Conserved Protoilludene Synthase Neighbourhoods and Unevenly Distributed Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Families in Armillaria

Fungal biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) offer a genomic entry point for natural-product discovery, but predicted regions alone neither establish pathway activity nor identify metabolites. Armillaria is a useful model because chemically rich, forest-associated species span pathogenic and saprotrophic lifestyles. We ana...

Armillaria mellea sensu lato and related Armillaria species at the crossroads of taxonomy, ecology, and biotechnology: a multi-dimensional review

Controlled release network hydrogel based on zein/sodium alginate-stabilized chrysanthemum essential oil Pickering emulsions for prolonged preservation of fresh-cut Gastrodia elata.

Browning and microbial proliferation are major factors driving quality deterioration in fresh-cut Gastrodia elata. This study developed a zein/sodium alginate-stabilized chrysanthemum essential oil (CEO) Pickering emulsion and incorporated it into gelatin-konjac glucomannan hydrogels for fresh-cut G. elata preservation...
