Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1343-1348, August 2026.
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.

Optimizing 6-benzylaminopurine for micropropagation: A cyclodextrin monomers and polymers approach

Carbohydrate Polymers
In the face of escalating climate change challenges, there is an imperative to enhance crop resilience and productivity. The plant growth regulator 6-benzylaminopurine (BA[P]) shows considerable potential in agriculture, yet its practical use is hampered by low water solubility and susceptibility to light and heat instability.

Late Blight Effector Pi05910 Suppresses Plant Immunity by Promoting Destabilisation of Host Scaffold Protein RACK1

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
The core RXLR effector Pi05910 of P. infestans suppresses host immunity and growth by promoting destabilisation of its binding protein RACK1 via the 26S proteasome pathway, leading to the suppression of PTI and protein translation. ABSTRACT Late blight, caused by oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating diseases of ...

Enhanced Rice Yellow Mottle Virus Resistance via CRISPR/Cas9‐Targeted Mutagenesis of the Rice eIF(iso)4G Gene

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Using CRISPR/Cas9 to edit the susceptibility gene in rice eIF(iso)4G helped to lower the infection of rice yellow mottle virus in mutated lines of the Indica rice cultivar IR2793‐80‐01. ABSTRACT Rice is a staple crop primarily recognised for its high content of carbohydrates and proteins.

Concentrations of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) in micropropagation of banana ‘Farta Velhaco’ (AAB)

Comunicata Scientiae, 2018
Propagation methods such as in vitro micropropagation have been developed and improved to increase the multiplication rate in a short time and improve the seedlings quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the different BAP concentrations on micropropagation of ‘Farta Velhaco’ banana during in vitro multiplication phase ...

The Transcription Factor DPB Confers Antiviral Defence Against Potato Virus X by Modulating MYB‐Dependent Signalling

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study identified that NbDPB confers resistance to potato virus X by directly activating the transcription factor NbMYB, which engages a hormone‐signalling network likely involving jasmonic acid and salicylic acid pathways. ABSTRACT As a transcriptional co‐factor of E2F, DP proteins are typically involved in the regulation of plant cell‐cycle ...

Efficient CRISPR‐Cas9 delivery and transgene‐free multiplex genome editing in plants using cymbidium mosaic virus‐derived vectors

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2026.
SUMMARY Virus‐induced genome editing (VIGE) has become a useful method by enabling transient delivery of gene‐editing reagents; however, many viral systems face limitations in cargo size, host range, or reliance on transgenic Cas9‐expressing plants.

Synergistic regulation of abiotic stress adaptation by copper miRNAs miR398 and miR408 in melon

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 2, July 2026.
Significance Statement Copper‐miRNA engineering through miR398 and miR408 overexpression represses Cu‐related target genes and promotes transcriptome reprogramming in transgenic melon. This regulatory strategy enhances plant growth and confers broad resilience against drought, salinity, heat, and cold stress.

Effects of Foliar Application of Iron Chlorine e6 on the Starch Physicochemical Properties and In Vitro Digestibility of Waxy Maize

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
In waxy maize production, foliar application of plant growth regulator iron chlorine e6 (ICE6) improves starch quality by altering its physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility. Foliar application of ICE6 at 90 g ha−1 improve starch pasting properties, swelling power, starch morphology and granule size, and slowly digestible and resistant ...
