Methylglyoxal controls tomato fruit ripening by regulating ethylene biosynthesis

This study shows that methylglyoxal (MG) regulates tomato fruit ripening by controlling ethylene biosynthesis through the SlGLY14 gene.

A ripening-associated ethylene response factor ERF.D7 activates ARF2 orthologs to regulate tomato fruit ripening

This study identifies SlERF.D7 as a ripening regulator in tomatoes that activates SlARF2A/B to control ripening by integrating auxin and ethylene signaling.

Isolation and Characterization of SARS-CoV-2 strains circulating in Eastern India.

The paper isolates and characterizes five SARS-CoV-2 strains from India, showing variations in cytotoxicity and cell line permissiveness, and finds both Covaxin and Covishield vaccines neutralize all isolates effectively.

Quantitative proteomics of hamster lung tissues infected with SARS-CoV-2 reveal host-factors having implication in the disease pathogenesis and severity

This study uses quantitative proteomics to analyze SARS-CoV-2-infected hamster lung tissues, identifying differentially expressed proteins and pathways linked to disease pathogenesis and severity.

Sequence analysis of Indian SARS-CoV-2 isolates shows a stronger interaction of mutated receptor binding domain with ACE2 receptor

The study analyzes SARS-CoV-2 isolates from India, finding a mutation in the RBD that increases binding affinity to human ACE2, suggesting potential for higher infectivity and cross-species transmission.
