Identification of the AKR gene family in sweet cherry and its response to different abiotic stresses

Scientific Reports
To explore the role of aldehyde-keto reductase (AKR) gene family in sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) responses to abiotic stresses, we identified 38 PaAKR genes via bioinformatics and analyzed their expression under PEG6000 (drought), NaCl (salinity), and ...

Rewiring Steroidal Metabolic Pathways for Diosgenin Production in Solanum nigrum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3032-3047, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Diosgenin is a key starting material for the synthesis of steroidal drugs, such as corticosteroids and sex hormones. While the primary commercial source of diosgenin is the tubers of Dioscorea spp., identifying alternative plant hosts capable of diosgenin biosynthesis could enhance its production.

Chromosome‐Scale Haplotype Genome Assemblies for the Australian Mango ‘Kensington Pride’ and a Wild Relative, Mangifera laurina, Provide Insights Into Anthracnose‐Resistance and Volatile Compound Biosynthesis Genes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3172-3188, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Mango (Mangifera indica) is one of the most popular fruits cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The availability of reference genomes helps to identify the genetic basis of important traits. Here, we report assembled high‐quality chromosome‐level genomes for the Australian mango cultivar ‘Kensington Pride’ and M ...

Endophytic Biostimulant Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Enhances Banana Growth and Primes Immunity Against Fusarium Wilt

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor derived from prokaryotes that participates in various biological processes involving dehydrogenase enzymes. Previous field trials identified a PQQ‐producing endophyte, Burkholderia seminalis 869T2, which enhances banana growth and reduces Fusarium wilt incidence from 24.5% to 3.4%.

Recombinant Escherichia coli-driven whole-cell bioconversion for selective 5-Aminopentanol production as a novel bioplastic monomer

Bioresources and Bioprocessing
5-Aminopentanol (5-AP) is a valuable amino alcohol with potential applications in polymer synthesis and bioplastics. Conventional production methods rely on petroleum-based feedstocks and metal catalysts, which raise environmental and sustainability ...

Chemo‐Enzymatic Route for Covalent Cellulose Fiber Dyeing

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 14, 15 April 2026.
This work presents a proof of concept for a chemo‐enzymatic approach to the covalent dyeing of cotton fibers. Laccase/TEMPO oxidation introduces aldehyde groups, enabling subsequent reductive amination with amino dyes. Excellent color homogeneity and wash fastness were demonstrated using acid red 33, highlighting the robustness of the approach and its ...
