A tomato MIK2‐clade receptor is involved in the perception of a Fusarium‐derived elicitor

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2777-2798, September 2026.
Fusarium elicitor responsivness and MIK2‐clade proteins are conserved across plant families. Summary Plants continuously monitor their environment to adapt to threats affecting health and fitness. Cell‐surface receptors detect conserved microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or endogenous immunogenic signals to activate signaling pathways that ...

Evolutionary interplay between sister cytochrome P450 genes shapes plasticity in plant metabolism

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Genes in the cytochrome P450 family have evolved a wide range of functions. Here, Liu et al. reconstruct the evolution of the P450 genes CYP98A8 and CYP98A9in the Brassicales, revealing a complex history of retrotransposition, tandem duplication and ...

Plant Traits and Reproduction in a Multitrophic System: The Role of Aphids, Parasitoids and Hyperparasitoids

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 822-830, August 2026.
This field mesocosm study examined the top‐down effects of hyperparasitoids, parasitoids and aphids on plant growth and fitness. Parasitoids reduced aphid populations, but this effect was attenuated by hyperparasitoids. However, these multitrophic interactions did not affect plant traits and reproduction, likely due to the plant's fast life cycle and ...

Towards an integrated molecular understanding of plant hormones

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2787-2826, August 2026.
This review offers a comprehensive overview of the nine plant hormones, delving into their biosynthesis, transport, signaling and crosstalk mechanisms. Because the complexity of plant hormonal control goes beyond these core elements, additional specific features are discussed. Lastly, this review highlights how fundamental insights drive hormonal‐based

Bioresponsive pseudoGlucosinolates (psGSLs) Release Isothiocyanates (ITCs) in the Presence of Nitroreductases

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 25, 2 July 2026.
This work introduces the concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) and reports the synthesis and evaluation of nitroreductase‐responsive psGSLs. These compounds represent a complementary prodrug strategy to natural glucosinolates (GSLs) for the controlled release of isothiocyanates (ITCs), enabling bio‐responsive protein labeling, as demonstrated in ...

Adaptation of flea beetles to Brassicaceae: host plant associations and geographic distribution of Psylliodes Latreille and Phyllotreta Chevrolat (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2019
The cosmopolitan flea beetle genera Phyllotreta and Psylliodes (Galerucinae, Alticini) are mainly associated with host plants in the family Brassicaceae and include economically important pests of crucifer crops.

Insectary Plant Species Preferences of Predators and Parasitoid Families in a Mediterranean Horticultural Agroecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 803-815, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of insectary plants to provide alternative food and shelter resources for enhancing natural enemy activity has been established as a common practice in IPM. Candidate flowering plant species have been screened and evaluated for their contribution to enhance life parameters of beneficial insects.

Anatomy And Morphology Of Bracts And Bracteoles In Order Brassicales

open access: yes, 2012
The results of comparisons of the anatomy and morphology of the leaves, bracts and bracteoles within representatives of the order Brassicales indicate similarity of bracts and leaves, as well as the similarity between bracteoles and stipules. This is evidence in favor of homologous leaf and bracts, and stipules and bracteoles.

Antioxidant Activity and Inhibition of Carbohydrate Hydrolyzing Enzymes by Underutilized Parts From Some Plant‐Based Foods and Their Effect on Postprandial Hyperglycemia

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 285-294, June 2026.
The underutilized parts viz: pawpaw seed, banana, plantain, and potato peels showed promising antioxidant and inhibition of α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase activities (IC50 values ≤ 100 μg/mL). Similarly, pawpaw seed, banana, plantain, and potato peels reduced postprandial hyperglycemia in sucrose‐ and maltose‐induced hyperglycemia in rats.
