Transcriptional activity, chromosomal distribution and expression effects of transposable elements in Coffea genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Plant genomes are massively invaded by transposable elements (TEs), many of which are located near host genes and can thus impact gene expression. In flowering plants, TE expression can be activated (de-repressed) under certain stressful conditions, both

Effect of land use change on Melolonthidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) beetle communities in the deforestation arc of the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 404-419, March 2026.
Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,

Geographic provenance and environmental growing conditions as factors influencing phytochemical composition of Arabica green coffee beans

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 520-534, March 2026.
Growth environment strongly influences green coffee bean biochemistry, linking phytochemical composition to adaptation under abiotic stress. Abstract This study explores how bioactive compounds in green coffee beans (Coffea arabica L.) vary across different geographic regions, addressing the key question of how environmental factors shape coffee ...

Indigenous Management Practices to Reduce Pests and Pathogens of Cash Crops in Agroforestry Systems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The crop with the highest damages was cocoa (63.9% plants affected by black pod disease), followed by Fusarium stem rot was the second highest damage in crops (30.0% of vanilla plants infected). Insecticides and fungicides do not have a significant impact in reducing pest and pathogen infestation.

Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.

Genetic and molecular determinism of diterpenes metabolism in Coffea spp [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cafestol and kahweol are two coffee-specific diterpenes. Although various effects of these compounds have been shown or hypothesized on human health, little information is currently available on the genetic and molecular bases of their metabolism.
