Yam (vegetable) Yam is the common name for some plant species in the genus "Dioscorea" (family Dioscoreaceae) that form edible tubers. Yams are perennial herbaceous vines cultivated for the consumption of their starchy tubers in many temperate and subtropical world regions. The tubers themselves are also called "yams", having numerous cultivars.

Milmyeon Milmyeon (, meaning "flour noodle") is a Korean dish of long and thin noodles similar to naengmyeon, representing the dishes of Busan. The noodle is basically mixing flour powder with starches of sweet potato and potato with meat broth, which bring it and water, several kinds of vegetables to a simmer in saucepan. The mixture of flour is not fixed at certain ingredients, leading to several transformation like using Artemisia princeps for "ssuk milmyeon" (쑥 밀면). Milmyeon also has its variety of "mul milmyeon" and "bibim milmyeon" applicable for naengmyeon. The difference between the two is chiefly spicy sauce for "bibim milmyeon".

Sarcoscypha Sarcoscypha is a genus of ascomycete fungus in the family Sarcoscyphaceae. Species of "Sarcoscypha" are present in Europe, North America and tropical Asia. They are characterised by a cup-shaped apothecium which is often brightly coloured. Some members of the family such as "S. coccinea" and the - according to new knowledge - more common "S. austriaca" in western Europe and United States have bright scarlet apothecia which have given them familiar names such as the scarlet cup fungus and scarlet elf cap.

Nematostella Nematostella is a genus of sea anemones in the family Edwardsiidae. There are three species. The best known is the starlet sea anemone ("N. vectensis"), which has been extensively studied as a model organism in fields such as genetics, evolution, and ecology. The defining morphological apomorphy of "Nematostella" is the presence of nematosomes.

Methanohalophilus mahii There are a total of four species in the genus "Methanohalophilus" including "Methanohalophilus mahii", "Methanohalophilus halophilus", "Methanohalophilus portucalensis", and "Methanohalophilus euhalobius." The closest relative, "Methanohalophilus portucalensis", has a 99.8% similarity in sequence across the whole genome to "Methanohalophilus mahii". The other "Methanohalophilus" species have less than a 94.7% similarity to "Methanohalophilus mahii". All species in the genus are halophilic methanogens that contribute to marine ecosystem mineral cycling.

Shirataki noodles Shirataki (白滝) are thin, translucent, gelatinous traditional Japanese noodles made from the "konjac" yam (devil's tongue yam or elephant yam). The word ""shirataki"" means "white waterfall", describing the appearance of these noodles. Largely composed of water and glucomannan, a water-soluble dietary fiber, they are very low in digestible carbohydrates and calories, and have little flavor of their own.

Vermilacinia Vermilacinia, a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Ramalinaceae, is a yellow-green fruticose type of lichen with about 30 species that grow on rocks, trees, and soil within the fog zone along the Pacific Coast of North America and South America. The genus name refers to the thallus being divided into narrow worm-like (vermis) branches (lacinia);the latter part of the name (lacinia) generally applied in descriptions and taxonomic keys such as exemplified in a key to Sonoran Desert species of "Ramalina".

Sesame Sesame ( ; "Sesamum indicum") is a flowering plant in the genus "Sesamum", also called "benne". Numerous wild relatives occur in Africa and a smaller number in India. It is widely naturalized in tropical regions around the world and is cultivated for its edible seeds, which grow in pods or "buns". The world harvested 6.2 million metric tonnes of sesame seeds in 2014, with Tanzania, India, and Sudan as the largest producers.

Pullulan Pullulan is a polysaccharide polymer consisting of maltotriose units, also known as α-1,4- ;α-1,6-glucan'. Three glucose units in maltotriose are connected by an α-1,4 glycosidic bond, whereas consecutive maltotriose units are connected to each other by an α-1,6 glycosidic bond. Pullulan is produced from starch by the fungus "Aureobasidium pullulans". Pullulan is mainly used by the cell to resist desiccation and predation. The presence of this polysaccharide also facilitates diffusion of molecules both into and out of the cell.

Tapioca balls Tapioca balls are a product that comes from tapioca, a starch which is in turn extracted from the cassava root. They are also known as "boba" (a transliteration of the word “bubble”) or “pearls” in bubble tea. Some "boba" are five-to-ten-millimeter starch balls, consisting of sweet potato powder, potato powder, or jelly. By adding different ingredients—water, sugar and seasoning—tapioca balls can be made to vary in color and in texture. Tapioca balls are typically neutral in flavor and gel easily,

Protein S (Myxococcus xanthus) Protein S is a protein found in "Myxococcus xanthus". Its name derives from being the "S" band in an alphabetical ordering of proteins run from Myxococcus xanthus cell contents on a SDS-denaturing gel. Its study was initially prompted by the huge increase in Protein S production during sporulation of Myxococcus xanthus.

Acetabularia Acetabularia is a genus of green algae, specifically of the Polyphysaceae family, Typically found in subtropical waters, "Acetabularia" is a single-celled organism, but gigantic in size and complex in form, making it an excellent model organism for studying cell biology. In form, the mature "Acetabularia" resembles the round leaves of a nasturtium, is 0.5 to 10 cm tall and has three anatomical parts: a bottom rhizoid that resembles a set of short roots; a long stalk in the middle; and a top umbrella of branches that may fuse into a cap. The single nucleus of "Acetabularia" is located in the rhizoid, and allows the cell to regenerate completely if its cap is removed. The caps of two "Acetabularia" may also be exchanged, even from two different species. In addition, if a piece of the stem is removed, with no access to the nucleus in the rhizoid, this isolated stem piece will also grow a new cap.

Phytoplasma Phytoplasmas are obligate bacterial parasites of plant phloem tissue and of the insect vectors that are involved in their plant-to-plant transmission. Phytoplasmas were discovered in 1967 by Japanese scientists who termed them mycoplasma-like organisms (MLOs). Since their discovery, phytoplasmas have resisted all attempts at "in vitro "culture in any cell-free medium; routine cultivation in an artificial medium thus remains a major challenge. Although phytoplasmas have recently been reported to be grown in a specific artificial medium, no repetition have been reported. Phytoplasmas are characterized by the lack of a cell wall, a pleiomorphic or filamentous shape, a diameter normally less than 1 μm, and a very small genome.
