Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 762-787, April 2026.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In

Plant Microbiome and Its Link to Plant Health: Host Species, Organs and Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae Infection Shaping Bacterial Phyllosphere Communities of Kiwifruit Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is the causal agent of the bacterial canker, the most devastating disease of kiwifruit vines. Before entering the host tissues, this pathogen has an epiphytic growth phase on kiwifruit flowers and leaves, thus ...

Methodologies for Scoring Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae Floral Bud Rot and the Impact on Yield Potential in Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Flower production is a key determinant of yield in many fruit crops, including kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa). Floral development is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors, with biotic stressors such as pathogens also playing a role in reproductive success.

Subjective and Objective Pericarp Colour Measurement in Block‐Red Kiwifruit

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) genotypes include fruit with green, yellow, or red flesh. Red‐fleshed kiwifruit may be either starburst, with a red inner pericarp, or block red, in which both inner and outer pericarp are red. In the research reported here, the flesh colour of two block‐red A. chinensis var. chinensis genotypes has been evaluated during

Developmental Differences and Implications for Small and Large ‘Zesy002’ Kiwifruit

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
‘Zesy002’ (Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis, sold commercially as Zespri SunGold Kiwifruit) now dominates the New Zealand kiwifruit industry and the global market for yellow‐fleshed kiwifruit. It is an inherently larger‐fruited cultivar than the traditional green‐fleshed “Hayward” fruit, with an average fruit mass of ∼120 g compared to ∼100 g for ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme papain, a cysteine endopeptidase complex from the latex of Carica papaya L.

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme is a cysteine endopeptidase complex, containing papain (EC 3.4.22.2), chymopapain (EC 3.4.22.6), caricain (EC 3.4.22.30) and glycyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.22.25), obtained from the latex of unripe Carica papaya L. by Enzyme Development Corporation. It is intended to be used in 13 food manufacturing processes.
