Circulating granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor as a sex‐unbiased global marker of lung and colorectal cancer cachexia pre‐clinical models

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia, affecting up to 80% of patients with advanced cancer, is characterized by metabolic and inflammatory dysregulation driven by tumour‐ and host‐derived factors. Although cytokines are central to cachexia pathogenesis, their circulating profiles and transcriptional relevance across models and sexes remain incompletely defined. We

Genetic diversity and population structure analysis of Ethiopian mustard (Brassica carinata A. Braun) accessions using simple sequence repeat markers

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Brassica carinata A. Braun is an oilseed that originated in Ethiopia with a wide range of industrial and food applications. Exploring the genetic structure of the crop is crucial for breeding and conservation measures. Despite the fairly large number of B.

In vitro collection of berry and fruit crops and their wild relatives at VIR

open access: yesБиотехнология и селекция растений, 2019
Background. The problem of ex situ conservation of plant genetic resources (PGR) is particularly relevant due to the decreasing of their genetic diversity. Accessions of vegetatively propagated crops are usually preserved in field genebanks.

Diversity analysis of 80,000 wheat accessions reveals consequences and opportunities of selection footprints

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Genebanks hold comprehensive collections of wild species, wild relatives, and landraces that are useful for genetic improvement. Here, the authors report the genotype of nearly 80,000 wheat accessions using DArTseq technology to show the less explored ...

Gut Microbiomes of Two Bamboo Locusts Reveal Divergent Metabolic Potentials

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We compared the gut microbiota of two bamboo‐feeding locust pests, Ceracris kiangsu and Ceracris nigricornis, using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for six geographic populations of C. kiangsu and publicly available C. nigricornis datasets. Both species were dominated by Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, but showed significant differences in community ...

Tolerance to Simulated Pod‐Borer Herbivory Among Several Genotypes of Extra Short‐Duration Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Pigeonpea is a major global legume crop that provides nutrition and income for some of the world's poorest people. Global pigeonpea yields are constrained due to damage from flower‐ and pod‐feeding lepidopteran pests, particularly Helicoverpa armigera.

Status and future of seed conservation of threatened plants in the post‐2020 era

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1763-1777, September 2026.
Ambitious targets have been set to backup seeds of threatened plants by the global strategy for plant conservation (GSPC), but it is unclear in how far these targets have been met and how seed collection should be organized to meet future challenges. Here, we provide an overview of the status of 44 countries in achieving seed conservation targets.

A fast and effective method to distinguish cultivated fonio species: conservation and evaluation perspectives

open access: yesGenetic Resources
Plant genetic resources characterization is essential for their conservation and their use in both breeding strategies and adaptation to global change. This is all the more important for species often neglected by research such as fonio. Fonio refers to
