Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1013-1031, April 2026.
Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...

Cucurbitacin D induces growth inhibition, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis in human endometrial and ovarian cancer cells

Tumor Biology, 2012
Cucurbitacin D, a newly isolated triterpenoid cucurbitacin, has been found to possess anticancer effects. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effects of cucurbitacin D on human endometrial and ovarian cancer cells. Human endometrial and ovarian cancer cells were treated with various concentrations of cucurbitacin D, and its effects on cell ...

Phytochemical Analysis of Veratrum Alkaloids in Medicinal Veratrum Globules Using High‐Performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled With Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Biomedical Chromatography, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Veratrum L. species have been used in traditional medicine for centuries due to their bioactive properties, yet they also contain toxic steroid alkaloids that pose potential health risks when present in herbal preparations. Reliable analytical approaches are therefore essential to ensure product safety, protect consumer health and assess ...

Molecular Mechanism of Mulberrin Regulating Lipid Metabolism Homeostasis Based on the Gut–Liver Axis Fiaf/AMPK Signaling Pathway

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
The molecular mechanism for mulberrin regulating lipid metabolism homeostasis. ABSTRACT Lipid metabolism disorders and the induced metabolic diseases have risen to become one of the primary public health issues. Our preliminary experimental results confirmed that mulberry leaf flavonoid extract exhibited efficacy in lipid metabolism regulation; the ...

High‐throughput transcriptome mining and in silico screening reveal saccharide feeding stimulants for Cydia pomonella larvae

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
We identified and characterized the gustatory and ionotropic receptors of Cydia pomonella using transcriptomics and in silico approaches, linking candidate sugar receptors to larval feeding attraction. Functional assays and behavioral tests highlighted isoquercitrin as a key feeding stimulant, providing a foundation for olfactory‐ and taste‐based pest ...

Population Genetic Differences Between Two Cucurbit Leaf Beetles With Contrasting Feeding Preferences [PDF]

Ecol Evol
The study revealed that the polyphagous A. indica exhibits higher genetic diversity, lower differentiation, and higher gene flow than the oligophagous A. lewisii, with these differences attributed to their distinct dietary preferences. A. lewisii populations showed significant isolation‐by‐distance, whereas A.
