Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Organic Sunscreens Used Worldwide, Alone and in Mixture, on Terrestrial Plants

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 257-269, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

New technologies accelerate the exploration of non-coding RNAs in horticultural plants. [PDF]

, 2017
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), that is, RNAs not translated into proteins, are crucial regulators of a variety of biological processes in plants. While protein-encoding genes have been relatively well-annotated in sequenced genomes, accounting for a small ...

Tandem MADS‐Box Genes FUL2 and MADS1 Form a Regulatory Module to Repress Serotonin Biosynthesis via Direct ASMT5 Activation in Tomato Fruit

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2891-2902, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The regulation of serotonin metabolism during fruit development and ripening remains poorly understood, despite its potential roles in plant defence and human nutrition. Here, we demonstrated that the MADS‐box transcription factor FUL2 acts as a key repressor of serotonin accumulation in tomato by forming a functional module with MADS1. CRISPR‐

Formation of biologically active benzodiazepine metabolites in Arabidopsis thaliana cell cultures and vegetable plants under hydroponic conditions. [PDF]

, 2019
The use of recycled water for agricultural irrigation comes with the concern of exposure to crops by contaminants of emerging concerns (CECs). The concentration of CECs in plant tissues will depend on uptake, translocation and metabolism in plants ...

Machine Learning‐Driven Construction of High‐Yielding Cucumber Plant Architectures in Greenhouse Environments

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2917-2938, May 2026.
Schematic summary of the machine learning‐driven analysis for high‐yield cucumber architecture. This study employs machine learning methods to analyze key shoot and root traits, building a predictive model for yield. The analysis identifies an optimal plant architecture: a compact and sturdy shoot structure, combined with a narrow yet larger‐diameter ...

Untargeted Metabolomics Coupled With Machine Learning Unravels Crop‐Specific Versus Generalized Effects of Biostimulants in Cucumber, Pepper, and Tomato

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, agricultural practices have shifted toward sustainability, aiming to reduce the use of agrochemicals and rely more on bio‐based solutions. However, the effectiveness of these latter suffers from inconsistency. Understanding how different crops respond to biostimulants, instead of referring to a specific trial or crop, is a ...
