Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

A High Soluble‐Fibre Allele in Wheat Encodes a Defective Cell Wall Peroxidase Responsible for Dimerization of Ferulate Moieties on Arabinoxylan

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2751-2761, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing dietary fibre (DF) intake is an important target to improve health. An attractive strategy for this is to increase DF in wheat which is derived principally from the endosperm cell wall polysaccharide arabinoxylan (AX). The water‐extractable form of this (WE‐AX) accounts for most soluble dietary fibre (SDF), which is believed to ...

Characterization of Microbotryum lychnidis-dioicae Secreted Effector Proteins, Their Potential Host Targets, and Localization in a Heterologous Host Plant

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Microbotryum lychnidis-dioicae is an obligate fungal species colonizing the plant host, Silene latifolia. The fungus synthesizes and secretes effector proteins into the plant host during infection to manipulate the host for completion of the fungal ...

S2‐PepAnalyst: A Web Tool for Predicting Plant Small Signalling Peptides

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3244-3260, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Small signalling peptides (SSPs) serve as crucial mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication in plants, orchestrating diverse physiological processes from development to stress responses. While recent advances in sequencing technologies have improved genome annotation, the identification of novel SSPs remains challenging due to their small size ...

You Shall Not Pass: Root Vacuoles as a Symplastic Checkpoint for Metal Translocation to Shoots and Possible Application to Grain Nutritional Quality

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plant nutrient uptake is performed mostly by roots, which have to acquire nutrients while avoiding excessive amounts of essential and toxic elements. Apoplastic barriers such as the casparian strip and suberin deposition block free diffusion from the ...

Linking Superoxide Production and Scavenging in Plant Development

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 2048-2068, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Due to their strong oxidizing potential, rapid membrane permeability, and high reactivity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play essential roles in plant development and stress responses. Superoxide (O2•‐) is a primary product of molecular oxygen reduction and a crucial source of hydrogen peroxide, representing a ROS species of substantial ...

Plant subtilases as key initiators of peptide ligand‐receptor signaling

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
SUMMARY Peptide ligand‐receptor signaling plays a crucial role in regulating diverse biological processes in plants. Over the past three decades, numerous peptide ligands and their corresponding receptors have been identified, and our understanding of their downstream signaling pathways and biological functions has gradually advanced.

Research Progress and Hotspots Analysis of Apoplastic Barriers in the Roots of Plants Based on Bibliometrics from 2003 to 2023

open access: yesPlants
The apoplastic barriers, composed of Casparian strip (CS) and suberin lamellae (SL), are integral to the regulation of water and plant nutrient uptake in plants, as well as their resilience to abiotic stresses.

Towards single-cell ionomics: a novel micro-scaled method for multi-element analysis of nanogram-sized biological samples

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2020
Background To understand processes regulating nutrient homeostasis at the single-cell level there is a need for new methods that allow multi-element profiling of biological samples ultimately only available as isolated tissues or cells, typically in ...
