Dual role of benzoxazinoids in plant response to combined drought stress and aphid feeding
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 45-57, January 2026.Benzoxazinoids enhance wheat's defence against aphids and drought stress by triggering callose accumulation, and MYB transcription factors regulate wheat stress response. Abstract Plants produce specialized metabolites like benzoxazinoids (BXDs) to survive adverse environmental conditions and deter herbivory, while insects have evolved mechanisms to ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.We modeled the global distributions of four Diolcogaster wasp species using MaxEnt and evaluated their ecological niches, phylogenetic relationships, and haplotype diversity. All species showed strong model performance, with D. claritibia exhibiting the broadest and most suitable habitats.

A Brief History of Canola Genetic Gains: From Classical Breeding to Genome Editing
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 6, November/December 2025.ABSTRACT Canola exemplifies the transformation of a crop from industrial use to a globally significant edible oilseed through sustained genetic and biotechnological innovation. Historically, rapeseed was characterized by high erucic acid and glucosinolate contents, restricting its use primarily to industrial applications.

Toxicity of soursop extracts to diamondback moth
Bioscience Journal, 2017 This study aimed to evaluate the effects of three solvent extractors (water, ethanol and hexane) of grounded seeds of soursop, Annona muricata L. (Annonaceae), in the mortality, biology and oviposition of Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae).

Genomic Evolution and Patterns of Horizontal Gene Transfer in Coccomorpha Species
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study reveals the genomic adaptations of Coccoidea pests through comparative analysis of five chromosome‐level genomes. Key findings include whole‐genome duplication events, expansion of antioxidant‐related gene families, horizontal gene transfer for nutrient metabolism, and species‐specific detoxification mechanisms linked to pesticide resistance.
