Efficacy of Streptomyces melanosporofaciens strain X216 at controlling clubroot disease on oilseed rape

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) is highly susceptible to infection from the soilborne pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin that causes clubroot disease and deleteriously affects production throughout the world.

The nicotinamide hypothesis revisited—plant defense signaling integrating PARP, nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, epigenetics, and glutathione

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 22, Page 3355-3368, November 2025.
Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

How safe are peat‐free growing media? An exploration of plant pathogen risks to the horticultural industry and recommendations for risk mitigation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 6, Page 1684-1699, November 2025.
The UK's horticultural industry is shifting from reliance on unsustainable peat‐based growing media to products that contain alternative constituents, including coir, bark, wood fibre and composted green waste. Some peat‐alternatives carry an elevated risk of harbouring plant pathogens, including the potential to introduce novel pathogens from overseas,

Screening of clubroot-resistant varieties and transfer of clubroot resistance genes to Brassica napus using distant hybridization.

open access: yesBreeding science, 2018
Clubroot is an economically important disease affecting plants in the family Cruciferae worldwide. In this study, a collection of 50 Cruciferae accessions was screened using Plasmodiophora brassicae pathotype 4 in China. Eight of these demonstrated resistance, including three Chinese cabbages, two cabbages, one radish, one kale, and one Brassica juncea.

Identifying canola (Brassica napus L.) accessions with superior photosynthetic traits and unique resource partitioning strategies

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Canola (Brassica napus L.) yields in Canada are not increasing sufficiently to meet future global demands. Improving photosynthetic efficiency and optimizing photoassimilate allocation represent a promising strategy to enhance yield potential.

Woodchip Incorporation Alleviates Soil‐Borne Disease Caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae

open access: yesJournal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Plasmodiophora brassicae infects roots and causes clubroot disease in cruciferous crops worldwide. Enhancing soil health through the application of bioresources represents a sustainable strategy for disease management. This study evaluated the effect of woodchip incorporation on clubroot suppression in Brassica rapa var.

Analysis of the Genetic Diversity of Houttuynia cordata Thunb Germplasm and Associated Variations in Lead Content

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Houttuynia cordata is an important medicinal and vegetable crop in Southwest China. Due to the accumulation of heavy metal ions such as lead ions (Pb2+) in H. cordata, consumption of this plant carries risks, such as ingestion of lead‐contaminated H. cordata, may lead to Pb2+ bioaccumulation, which is associated with developmental retardation,
