Comparative Genomics of Pinna rudis and Pinna nobilis Reveals Conserved and Divergent Features of the Bivalve Defensome

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We present the first high‐quality annotated genome of Pinna rudis and an updated genome assembly for Pinna nobilis, two Mediterranean fan mussel species differentially affected by mass mortality events. Comparative genomic analyses of gene sets associated with the “defensome” show that these genes are largely functionally conserved between the two ...

Water‐Holding Capacity Regulation of Dietary Fibers in Soybean Residue: From Modification Strategies, to Function Improvement and Food Texture Optimization

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Soybean residue exhibits poor water holding capacity (WHC) due to high insoluble dietary fiber (>95%). Modification strategies (physical, biological, and chemical) enhance WHC by altering fiber structure/function, enabling optimized food texture and functional food development in meat, bakery, dairy, and other food systems.

Gut Microbiota–Metabolism Axis Shapes the Individual Metabolic Phenotype of Different Microbiota‐Accessible Carbohydrates

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Specific MAC bioactivities are associated with gut biotransformation. ABSTRACT Increasing the intake of microbiota‐accessible carbohydrates (MACs) has emerged as a promising nutritional strategy for preventing metabolic diseases. However, the consistency of their beneficial effects remains unclear, hindering their optimized application.

Protein Energy Malnutrition: Opportunities for Cold Plasma Technologies

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is a major global health concern driven by biological, environmental, and nutritional factors, including gut microbiota imbalance and low protein intake. Cold atmospheric plasma technologies offer promising, sustainable solutions by improving food security, enhancing protein quality and absorption, and modulating gut ...
