Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food
EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 This study investigated the allelopathic effect of Axonopus compressus litter on Asystasia gangetica and Pennisetum polystachion. In experiment 1 the bioassays with 0, 10, 30, and 50 g L−1 of aqueous A. compressus litter leachate were conducted. Experiment 2 was carried out by incorporating 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 g L−1 of A.

Heterelogous Expression of Plant Genes
International Journal of Plant Genomics, Volume 2009, Issue 1, 2009., 2009 Heterologous expression allows the production of plant proteins in an organism which is simpler than the natural source. This technology is widely used for large‐scale purification of plant proteins from microorganisms for biochemical and biophysical analyses.

Nitrogen losses mitigated with maize–legume intercropping in the Yucatan Peninsula
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2025.Abstract In recent years, nitrate leaching and environmental impacts from agriculture have become global issues, due in part to the increased use of nitrogen (N) fertilizers in agriculture. In the Yucatan Peninsula, intercropping is a traditional farming practice known as the “Milpa” system (i.e., a traditional farming practice characterized by the ...

Homologous Lectins Elicit Different Patterns of Antinociceptive Responses
Natural Product Communications, 2013 Canavalia gladiata (CGL), C. maritima (ConM) and C. brasiliensis (ConBr) lectins were evaluated in nociception models. ConBr inhibited first (32%) and second (100%) phases of the formalin test; CGL inhibited only the first (74%) and ConM only the second (

Elsinoe species: The rise of scab diseases
Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 39-58, January 2025.We critically evaluate research on the taxonomic status, phylogenetic relationships, host range, biology and epidemiology of Elsinoe causing scab diseases—a genus known for over 100 years but which remains poorly understood. Abstract The genus Elsinoe contains many aggressive pathogens of a wide range of plants, many of which are economically important.

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Peptide size is a key factor influencing their biological activity. Taking advantage of this relationship, ultrafiltration (UF) emerges as a valuable tool for fractionating complex peptide mixtures obtained from natural sources. Recent studies have focused on the application of this technology to legumes and oilseeds, with the aim of identifying ...
