Rationale on the High Radical Scavenging Capacity of Betalains

Antioxidants, 2019
Betalains are water-soluble natural pigments of increasing importance as antioxidants for pharmaceutical use. Although non-phenolic betalains have lower capacity to scavenge radicals compared to their phenolic analogues, both classes perform well as ...

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

iMetaOmics, 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

Legume 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.

Continuous Flow UV-C Irradiation Effects on the Physicochemical Properties of Aloe vera Gel and Pitaya (Stenocereus spp.) Blend

Foods, 2020
Physicochemical properties of a blend of 10% Aloe vera gel with 5% pitaya juice subjected to UV-C doses of 16.5, 27.7, and 40 mJ/cm2 were evaluated at pH 3.5 and 5.5. Unprocessed treatments were used as the control.

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

Plant-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 ...

The Biosynthesis and Functions of Flavonoids: Recent Advances From Studies Across Land Plant Diversity

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2026.
Over the last decade there have been significant advances in genome sequencing and model species development for ferns, lycophytes, and the bryophyte lineages—mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. This has facilitated research on the biosynthesis and function of flavonoids in these non‐seed land‐plant lineages.

Cytosolic and Nuclear Co-localization of Betalain Biosynthetic Enzymes in Tobacco Suggests that Betalains Are Synthesized in the Cytoplasm and/or Nucleus of Betalainic Plant Cells

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Betalains replace anthocyanins as color pigments in most families of Caryophyllales. Unlike anthocyanins, betalains are derived from tyrosine via three enzymatic steps: hydroxylation of L-tyrosine to L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA; step 1), and ...

Statistical Optimization of Vegetable Washwater Treatment Using Electrocoagulation

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 6, June 2026.
Optimized electrocoagulation (0.32 A, 8.8 min, aluminum electrode) effectively removes suspended solids, turbidity, and COD from four types of raw vegetable washwaters. This provides a simple, robust solution for treating and reusing these agricultural effluents.

Pea Protein and Maltodextrin‐Based Encapsulation of Anthocyanins From Black Rice Bran: Characterization, Storage Stability, and In Vitro Anthocyanin Release

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to encapsulate anthocyanins from black rice bran (an agro‐industrial by‐product) using pea protein (PR) and maltodextrin (MA) as wall materials. The microcapsules were characterized by determining encapsulation efficiency, structural and thermal characteristics, color and storage stability, and in vitro anthocyanin release ...
