Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Rapid design of transgene‐free cabbage with desired anthocyanin contents via HI‐Edit
The HI‐Edit system combines haploid induction and CRISPR/Cas‐based genome editing to provide a promising way to design crops with desired traits in a rapid, precise and transgene‐free manner. HI‐Edit was applied to produce cabbages with desired anthocyanin contents.

The glutamate receptor‐like GLR2.7 modulates insect egg‐induced defense responses in Arabidopsis
Summary Upon perception of insect eggs, Arabidopsis thaliana activates a generic immune response that culminates in cell death (hypersensitive‐like response (HR‐like)). While this response can subsequently impact egg survival, the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood.

Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality [PDF]
Selenium (Se) at very low doses has crucial functions in humans and animals. Since plants represent the main dietary source of this element, Se-containing crops may be used as a means to deliver Se to consumers (biofortification). Several strategies have

Summary Intake of glucosinolates through the consumption of cruciferous vegetables has been associated with numerous health benefits. In recent decades, glucosinolate glucoraphanin has gained a lot of attention, as its hydrolysis product (sulforaphane) is known to possess numerous health‐promoting benefits, including anti‐cancer and chemopreventive ...
