Calcium oxalate crystals of plant leaves pass through chewing invertebrate larvae virtually unchanged

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
Can calcium oxalate crystals protect plants against herbivorous insects? These Hazel leaves are consumed by caterpillars despite their high content of mineral druses (right image, arrows. Scale bar = 100 μm). This study illustrates what happens to crystals and caterpillars after the meal.

Blue light‐induced stomatal opening is associated with species‐specific changes in primary metabolism but not with starch breakdown in guard cells

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Blue light (BL)‐induced stomatal opening has been associated with starch breakdown within Arabidopsis guard cells (GCs). However, whether this mechanism is conserved in angiosperms and which metabolic pathways are activated downstream of BL perception and/or starch degradation, remains unknown.

MOLECULAR ANALYSIS FOR INTROGRESSION OF ALLIUM FISTULOSUM INTO ALLIUM CEPA [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1992
The edible Alliums are economically important world-wide. The bulb onion (Allium cepa) is the most widely grown. The Japanese bunching onion (A. fistulosum) has many desirable characters, e.g., resistance to pink root, Thrips, smut, maggot, and Botrytis. Transfer of pink root resistance from A. fistulosum into A.

Exploring potential strategies for haploid induction based on double fertilization in plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Haploid induction (HI), an indispensable procedure in doubled haploid breeding, has attracted increasing attention in crop genetic improvement due to its ability to rapidly fix desirable traits in a homozygous state, thereby shortening the breeding cycle.
