Glycomolecules: from “sweet immunity” to “sweet biostimulation”?
Abstract Climate changes and environmental contaminants are daunting challenges that require an urgent change from current agricultural practices to sustainable agriculture. Biostimulants are natural solutions that adhere to the principles of organic farming and are believed to have low impacts on the environment and human health.

A Perspective on CRN Proteins in the Genomics Age:Evolution, Classification, Delivery and Function Revisited [PDF]
Plant associated microbes rely on secreted virulence factors (effectors) to modulate host immunity and ensure progressive infection. Amongst the secreted protein repertoires defined and studied in pathogens to date, the CRNs (for CRinkling and Necrosis ...

Development of a molecular method to detect and quantifyAphanomyces euteichesin soil [PDF]
A real-time PCR assay using 136F/211R primers and 161T TaqMan probe for the detection and quantification of Aphanomyces euteiches in soil is presented. The specificity of primers was tested on 105 different A. euteiches isolates, mainly from France. A calibration curve was established with a plasmid pHS1 resulting from the target region cloned into the

ABSTRACT Pea production across the world is significantly limited by root rot disease, which is caused by many fungal and oomycetes pathogens. In Canada, Fusarium avenaceum is the most devastating pathogen of the Fusarium root rot complex of pea. Host genetic resistance is the most effective control method for this disease.

Is there genetic variation in mycorrhization of Medicago truncatula? [PDF]
Differences in the plant’s response among ecotypes or accessions are often used to identify molecular markers for the respective process. In order to analyze genetic diversity of Medicago truncatula in respect to interaction with the arbuscular ...

β-Aminobutyric Acid-induced Resistance in Plants [PDF]
Thehe broad sprectrum protective effect of the non-protein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) against numerous plant diseases has been well-documented in the literature.

Abstract Root system architecture (RSA) plays a central role in water and nutrient acquisition in plants. Plasticity and genetic variation in RSA can be used as an adaptive strategy to optimize plant performance under variable environments. We quantified phenotypic variation for seedling RSA among 44 diverse pea (Pisum sativum L.) genotypes, including ...

Creating saponin‐free yellow pea seeds by CRISPR/Cas9‐enabled mutagenesis on β‐amyrin synthase
Abstract Dry pea (Pisum sativum) seeds are valuable sources of plant protein, dietary fiber, and starch, but their uses in food products are restricted to some extent due to several off‐flavor compounds. Saponins are glycosylated triterpenoids and are a major source of bitter, astringent, and metallic off‐flavors in pea products. β‐amyrin synthase (BAS)

Biological activity of glucosinolate derived compounds isolated from seed meal of Brassica crops and evaluated as plant and food protection agents [PDF]
Glucosinolates are amino acid derived allelochemicals characteristic of plants of the order Capparales. These compounds are present in seeds of agriculturally common Brassica crops in varying quantities depending on the species (ref).
