Domain‐Targeted RNAi of VeA Reveals Its Essential Role in the Fusarium oxysporum–Pseudostellaria heterophylla Interaction

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pseudostellariae VeA, containing a conserved Velvet domain and nuclear localization signal (NLS), regulates growth, conidiation and virulence. VeA silencing weakened pathogenicity, reduced reactive oxygen species accumulation and activated host defence, suggesting VeA is a key virulence regulator and potential target for SIGS ...

Mycotoxins in plant‐based drinks (soy, almond and oat): the BfR updates its assessment of their health risks based on newly collected data

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Mycotoxins (mould toxins) are secondary metabolites of moulds. They are natural toxins whose occurrence in food and feed is undesirable but cannot be completely avoided. Mycotoxins may occur as contaminants in plant products and raw materials such as grains, nuts and almonds if they are infested with mould during cultivation, storage or ...

Climate Change and Aflatoxin B1 in Agriculture Products: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Climate change mainly involves increasing temperatures and concentrations of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. These changes increase the expression of genes for mycotoxin synthesis, including aflatoxin B1, in fungi. These stressors also lead to reduced plant defenses against fungal infections.
