Progress in the synthesis of sustainable polymers from terpenes and terpenoids [PDF]

, 2016
The imminent depletion of resources derived from fossil fuels is a major concern for today’s society. 300 Mt of polymers are used every year in the form of plastics, most commonly derived from fossil fuels, hence the necessity to find new materials based

Citrus Yellow Vein Clearing Virus Infection in Lemon Influences Host Preference of the Citrus Whitefly by Affecting the Host Metabolite Composition

Plants
Plant viruses have been known to alter host metabolites that influence the attraction of insect vectors. Our study investigated whether Citrus yellow vein clearing virus (CYVCV) infection influences vector attractiveness, focusing on the citrus whitefly,

Chemical Warfare Agents in Plants: Biodefensive Terpenes from Sagebrush [PDF]

, 2013
To prevent being eaten, some plants create compounds that are toxic to herbivores, and herbivores respond by creating new ways to metabolize these toxins. For example, sagebrush produces bio-defensive terpenes to deter foraging by sage grouse.

De novo production of six key grape aroma monoterpenes by a geraniol synthase-engineered S. cerevisiae wine strain [PDF]

, 2015
[Background] Monoterpenes are important contributors to grape and wine aroma. Moreover, certain monoterpenes have been shown to display health benefits with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer or hypotensive properties amongst others. The aim

The limitations of the methods of identifying the floral source of honeys [PDF]

, 1998
The pollen grains in honey reveal the types of plants that were around when the bees produced the honey, thus it is valid to use melissopalynology to determine the geographical origin of honeys, but there are several reasons why it is less valid for ...

Transcriptome pathways unique to dehydration tolerant relatives of modern wheat [PDF]

, 2009
Among abiotic stressors, drought is a major factor responsible for dramatic yield loss in agriculture. In order to reveal differences in global expression profiles of drought tolerant and sensitive wild emmer wheat genotypes, a previously deployed shock ...

Mechanisms of Aristolochic Acid Resistance in Specialist Butterflies and Evolutionary Insights for Potential Protective Pathways

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
The study provides an extreme example of insect adaptation to highly toxic defenses of host plants, and investigates the complex strategies to resist carcinogenic aristolochic acids, including physical isolation, metabolic detoxification, and DNA repair.

Comparative effects of deep-frying and non-fat reheating on characteristic volatile organic compounds and quality of crispy fried pork

Food Chemistry: X
Deep-frying reheating brings the signature crispy texture of crispy fried pork (CFP), but additional oil absorption raises concerns for health-conscious consumers. This study compared deep-frying (DF) with non-fat reheating methods, including air-frying (
