Variation in herbivore defense strategies among plant species differing in elevational distribution and the role of temperature in defense

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3091-3103, March 2026.
Summary Temperature influences the distribution and performance of both plants and insect herbivores. Consequently, plant–herbivore interactions are likely to vary across thermal gradients, which could affect the evolution of plant defense. Furthermore, temperature fluctuations may elicit immediate changes in defense.

Optimization of carbon and nitrogen utilization for enhanced photosynthesis, biomass and yield by coexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, aspartate aminotransferase and glutamine synthetase in Brassica juncea

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1110-1132, March 2026.
Summary Coexpression of genes involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism offers a promising avenue for improving crop yield. This study investigated the impact of coexpressing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [ZmPEPC (P)], aspartate aminotransferase [GmAspAT (A)] and glutamine synthetase [NtGS (G)] in Brassica juncea to enhance plant yield ...

Naturally-occurring glucosinolates, glucoraphanin and glucoerucin, are antagonists to aryl hydrocarbon receptor as their chemopreventive potency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
As a cytosolic transcription factor, the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor is involved in several patho- physiological events leading to immunosuppression and cancer; hence antagonists of the Ah receptor may possess chemoprevention properties.

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Protective Role of (RS)-glucoraphanin Bioactivated with Myrosinase in an Experimental Model of Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2013
The discovery of new natural compounds with pharmacological properties is a field of interest widely growing. Recent literature shows that Brassica vegetables (Cruciferae) possess therapeutic effects particularly ascribed due to their content in glucosinolates, which upon myrosinase hydrolysis release the corresponding isothiocyanates.

Diet rich in high glucoraphanin broccoli reduces plasma LDL cholesterol: evidence from randomised controlled trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cruciferous-rich diets have been associated with reduction in plasma LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), which may be due to the action of isothiocyanates derived from glucosinolates that accumulate in these vegetables.

Production of plant-derived anticancer precursor glucoraphanin in chromosomally engineered Escherichia coli

open access: yesMicrobiological Research, 2020
Glucoraphanin is a methionine-derived glucosinolate that imparts numerous health-benefits with broad bioactivity. Low amounts in plant tissues and high cost of extraction have limited the production of glucoraphanin. Metabolic engineering in heterologous microorganisms is an attractive approach to achieve efficient production of valuable natural ...

How Glucosinolates Affect Generalist Lepidopteran Larvae: Growth, Development and Glucosinolate Metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Multiple lepidopteran larvae feed successfully on plants containing glucosinolates despite the diverse array of toxic and deterrent breakdown products, such as isothiocyanates (ITCs), formed upon plant damage.
