Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 1712-1727, March 2026.ABSTRACT Gene pyramiding in crop varieties offers a promising strategy to achieve sustainable production and reduce reliance on pesticides. However, stacking resistance genes without understanding their biological functions may result in transient protection.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.The lamina joint determines leaf angle and plant architecture. Xu et al. establish a live‐imaging system for the rice lamina joint and reveal that asymmetric epidermal cell elongation and division between the lateral and medial edges drive leaf angle formation.

Nutritive Value of Foxtail Millet Protein
Eiyo To Shokuryo, 1979 1) 市販粟穀粒より粟粉および抽出たん白質を調製し, それらのたん白質の栄養価さらに粟粉へのアミノ酸添加の効果を検討した。2) アミノ酸分析および人工消化実験から, 粟粉は著しくリジン含量が低いのに対し抽出たん白質はバランスのよい必須アミノ酸組成を有し, また消化性も優れていることが示された。3) 幼若ラットでの成長実験では, 抽出たん白質はカゼインより高いPER, NPRを示したが粟粉は体重を維持させるだけの効果しか示されなかった。一方, L-リジン塩酸塩およびL-スレオニンを添加した粟粉は抽出たん白質と同様の高いPER, NPRを示し, 粟粉へのアミノ酸補足の有効性が明らかにされ。4) 成熟ラットを用いた実験において, 粟粉 ...

Role of Millets for Food Security Under Climate Change
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT The accelerating impacts of climate change pose significant threats to global food security, highlighting critical vulnerabilities within the agricultural system. As greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, global temperatures have increased by 0.6°C over the 20th century, with projections indicating further increases of 0.1°C–2°C per decade.

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.This study examines if plant functional diversity dilutes plant virus prevalence in grass hosts and evaluates how virus prevalence influences net community and host production. Functional diversity did not mitigate or amplify virus prevalence. While we found that species relationships between virus prevalence and production varied, overall, virus ...

Summer cover crops impact weed biomass and C and N acquisition
Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, January/February 2026.Abstract Despite the potential to improve nutrient cycling, weed suppression, and system resilience, mixed‐species cover crops remain underutilized in organic irrigated systems. This study evaluated the influence of cover crop diversity and associated weeds on biomass production (both cover crops and weeds), as well as carbon (C) and nitrogen (N ...

Effects of different preceding crops on soil nutrients and foxtail millet productivity and quality
Frontiers in Plant ScienceCrop rotation can affect crop productivity and soil characteristics; however, the impact of preceding crops on the yield and quality of foxtail millet and the relationship between these two factors have not been well characterised. To further investigate

Isolation of foxtail millet proteins and their subunit structure.
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1980 Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) proteins were fractionated into five fractions, i. e., water-, salt-, ethanol-, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)- and 2-mercaptoethanol (ME)-soluble fractions, by successive extraction with various solvents from millet flour. The proportion in each fraction was 7.2, 5.6, 40, 25 and 20% respectively, of total flour nitrogen.
