Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT The foliar application of amino acids offers a promising strategy to mitigate multiple abiotic stresses—drought, salinity, heat and heavy metals—by enhancing plant physiological, biochemical and molecular responses. This review synthesises recent advances in understanding how external amino acids function as bio‐stimulants, focusing on ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.The StERF10‐StGSH1 module coordinates glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis under low‐phosphorus stress. The low‐phosphate‐induced AP2/ERF transcription factor StERF10 directly activates the transcription of StGSH1 and enhances GSH accumulation. Consequently, GSH scavenges reactive oxygen species and provides sulfur for sulfolipid synthesis, facilitating the ...

Novel Antifungal Scaffold Targeting Tubulin Overcomes Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum Resistance
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.Addressing pesticide resistance, novel chromone‐acylhydrazone hybrids targeting fungal tubulin are synthesized. Compound G24 potently inhibited S. sclerotiorum (EC50 = 0.21µg mL−1) and demonstrated enhanced field performance via microencapsulation, offering a sustainable strategy against resistance and for global food security.
