Pepino Mosaic Virus: A Globally Important Tomato Pathogen and a Rising Model in Molecular Virology

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) is a globally important tomato pathogen causing fruit quality losses. It comprises multiple genetic types and spreads via seed and mechanical contact. Lacking resistant cultivars, management relies on cross‐protection. PepMV–tomato interactions provide a valuable model for studying virus–plant molecular mechanisms and ...

Season over plant sex: drivers of leaf damage and plant defence in a dioecious Mediterranean shrub

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 314-320, January 2026.
Considering both seasons revealed higher late‐season herbivory in males than in females of Pistacia lentiscus, while overall herbivory increased and traits varied seasonally. Abstract In dioecious plants, females often prioritize reproduction over growth, potentially investing more in defence, while males grow faster but allocate fewer resources to ...
