Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3603-3612, April 2026.
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

Evolution of specifier proteins in glucosinolate-containing plants

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background The glucosinolate-myrosinase system is an activated chemical defense system found in plants of the Brassicales order. Glucosinolates are stored separately from their hydrolytic enzymes, the myrosinases, in plant tissues.

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Myrosinase-dependent and –independent formation and control of isothiocyanate products of glucosinolate hydrolysis.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Brassicales contain a myrosinase enzyme that hydrolyzes glucosinolates to form toxic isothiocyanates, as a defense against bacteria, fungi, insects and herbivores including man.

Surprising amount of stasis in repetitive genome content across the Brassicales

, 2020
ABSTRACT Genome size of plants has long piqued the interest of researchers due to the vast differences among organisms. However, the mechanisms that drive size differences have yet to be fully understood. Two important contributing factors to genome size are expansions of repetitive elements, such as transposable ...

Evolution spezifizierender Proteine der Ordnung Brassicales

, 2012
Das Glucosinolat-Myrosinase-System ist ein pflanzliches Abwehrsystem der Brassicales. Spezifizierende Proteine sind Teil dieses aktivierten chemischen Abwehrsystems. Bei Gewebeverletzung kommt es zur Hydrolyse der Glucosinolate durch Myrosinasen. Die entstehenden Hydrolyseprodukte lagern sich entweder spontan in toxische, als Abwehrstoffe dienende ...

The AT-hook Motif-encoding Gene METABOLIC NETWORK MODULATOR 1 Underlies Natural Variation in Arabidopsis Primary Metabolism

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Regulation of primary metabolism is a central mechanism by which plants coordinate their various responses to biotic and abiotic challenge. To identify genes responsible for natural variation in primary metabolism, we focused on cloning a locus from ...

Cataloging the Brassica napus seed metabolome

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2016
The allotetraploid Brassicales member canola (Brassica napus L.) is an oil-seed crop sought primarily for vegetable oil, animal feed, and biofuel. With the advent of -omics (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) technologies, numerous ...
