Anthocyanins and betalains in evolution: Why mutual exclusion remains the best‐supported model

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Anthocyanins and betalains are plant pigments produced through different biosynthetic pathways and are generally considered mutually exclusive. We examine claims of their co‐occurrence, arguing that methodological flaws and data misinterpretation have led to unsupported reports, and offer recommendations for more rigorous future research.

Stress-specific adaptation of a non-betalain DODA homolog from pansy (Viola × wittrockiana)

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
The mutual exclusivity of anthocyanin and betalain pigmentation in plants is a classic example of metabolic lineage-specific adaptation. Unlike L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) 4,5-dioxygenase (DODA) in betalain-producing plants, which is ...

Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 2166-2188, July 2026.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

Efficient CRISPR‐Cas9 delivery and transgene‐free multiplex genome editing in plants using cymbidium mosaic virus‐derived vectors

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2026.
SUMMARY Virus‐induced genome editing (VIGE) has become a useful method by enabling transient delivery of gene‐editing reagents; however, many viral systems face limitations in cargo size, host range, or reliance on transgenic Cas9‐expressing plants.

From Food Waste to Valorized Nanomaterials: Sustainable Green Synthesis and Biomedical Applications

open access: yesChemFoodChem, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
Food waste‐derived biomolecules act as natural reducing and stabilizing agents for the green synthesis of functional NPs with applications in antimicrobial systems, food packaging, biomedical technologies, and environmental remediation. ABSTRACT Food waste is a global issue, with billions of tons discarded and unutilized annually, causing economic ...

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Insights Into Salinity Tolerance in Dry Pea

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major crop production constraint in dry pea (Pisum sativum L.), making the development of salt‐tolerant varieties essential to improve crop productivity and land‐use efficiency. The genetic mechanisms of salt tolerance in dry pea are largely unknown, and research on salt‐tolerant genes is limited.

Integrative Analysis of Abiotic Stress–Responsive Genes in Soybean Using Differential Gene Expression and Validation With Machine Learning

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and intensity of climate‐associated abiotic stresses highlight the need to better understand soybean stress‐response mechanisms. In this study, transcriptomic data from 112 soybean samples exposed to multiple abiotic stress conditions, including drought, salinity, and heavy‐metal stress, were integrated using a multi ...

Biosynthesis and Extraction of Chlorophyll, Carotenoids, Anthocyanins, and Betalaine In Vivo and In Vitro

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
As natural bioactive compounds, plant pigments play crucial roles not only in plant phenotype, growth, development, and adaptation to stress but also hold unique value in biotechnology, healthcare, and industrial applications. There is growing interest in the biosynthesis and acquisition of plant pigments.
