New insights into the dynamics of the glutathione-ascorbate redox system of plants

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
The Hallilwell-Asada-Foyer redox cascade (HAF) is viewed as a H2O2 detoxifying system with a great variety of responses against environmental changes. The functional consequences of these responses are interpreted intuitively because a systemic analysis ...

Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 1955-1967, 15 March 2026.
Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.

A review of the postharvest biochemical, biophysical and biological properties of 61 cultivars of North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 1968-1980, 15 March 2026.
Abstract Fruit from the North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) is unfamiliar to many as a food crop and botanically unusual because it is the northernmost genus and only temperate member of the tropical Annonaceae family. It is the largest edible fruit native to North America.

Exploring the role of exogenous salicylic acid in cereals resilience to water deficit stress: Advances and challenges

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Salicylic acid (SA) is an elicitor of abiotic stress tolerance in plants, but a comparative analysis of its effects across cereals remains under‐explored. This review article assesses the literature on the biological functioning of exogenous SA application (foliar‐ or root‐applied) in water‐stressed cereals.

A Comprehensive Review on the Significance of Antioxidants and Their Influence on Biopolymer Packaging Films: Recent Advances and Challenges

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Influence of antioxidants‐loaded biopolymer films on food security and extended shelf life. ABSTRACT Autooxidation is a significant cause of quality deterioration in food systems, leading to nutrient loss, off‐flavor formation, textural changes, and overall spoilage.

Antioxidation is a Common Defense Strategy for Different Species Under Mechanical Stress

Advanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 1, March 2026.
Mechanical stress‐induced oxidative stress is a universal challenge across species, triggering a conserved antioxidant defense strategy. This perspective delves into the molecular evolutionary logic of this response, comparing mechanisms across plants, microorganisms, and animals to reveal their profound phylogenetic significance.

Enhancing polyphenol synthesis and antioxidant activity in Camellia sinensis using shikimic and salicylic acids

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 73-87, March 2026.
Abstract Background Camellia sinensis, widely consumed as tea, is the second most popular beverage globally and is valued for its health benefits. However, environmental stressors pose a significant challenge to the tea industry. This study investigates the potential of shikimic acid (ShA) and its derivative, salicylic acid (SA), as inducers to enhance

In Silico and In Vitro Therapeutic Effects of Phycocyanin Against Lipid Micelle and/or Endotoxin‐Induced Oxidative Damage and Barrier Dysfunction in Human Intestinal Epithelial Cells Model

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 6, 29 March 2026.
PHY was evaluated for its protective effects against oxidative stress, inflammation, and barrier disruption induced by LM and LPS in Caco‐2 cells. PHY improved cell viability, reduced oxidative and inflammatory responses, preserved tight junction integrity, and alleviated ER stress.

Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.
