Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.

Herbivore induction of the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system: major trends, biochemical bases and ecological significance [PDF]
, 2009 Like many other plant defense compounds, glucosinolates are present constitutively in plant tissues, but are also induced to higher levels by herbivore attack.

Proteins of the pollen coat of Brassica oleracea
Journal of Plant Physiology, 1997 Summary In higher plants, proteins in the coat of the pollen grain are assumed to play an important role in the interaction between pollen and stigma upon pollination. A polyclonal antiserum was raised against a mixture of these proteins. The antiserum strongly reacted with proteins extracted from the pollen coat and from whole stamens, whereas there

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality [PDF]
, 2015 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

Herbivores induce plant chemical defenses based on the identity of their attacking parasitoid
Oikos, EarlyView.Many parasitoids increase plant fitness by decreasing herbivore feeding damage. Solitary parasitoids (where only one individual completes development per host) generally cause their hosts to feed less than unparasitized herbivores, reducing pressure on plants to induce chemical defense production.
