Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is an important pest of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in Europe. The objective of the present study was to gain a better understanding of host plant related factors affecting its oviposition behaviour with the aim of developing new sustainable control strategies.

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.This study evaluated the population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (SRN) in field rotations with cover crops and the subsequent effect of this rotation on sugar beet quality and quantity attributes. It was clear that the SRN densities under field conditions are influenced by multiple factors, such as the type of cover crops grown, soil disturbance ...

Herbal Medicine for Colorectal Cancer Treatment: Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Applications
Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Colorectal cancer is a prevalent gastrointestinal tumour and the second deadliest cancer worldwide, affecting approximately 10% of all cancers and cancer‐related deaths. Current clinical methods for treating CRC cause gastrointestinal abnormalities and myelosuppression.

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Higher cruciferous vegetable (e.g., broccoli) intake is associated with lower risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but limited causal evidence exists. We investigated if cruciferous vegetable intake improved glycaemic control compared to root/squash vegetables in non‐diabetic adults with elevated blood pressure.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Repetitive DNA is a feature of all organisms, ranging from archaea and plants to humans. DNA repeats can be seen both in coding and in noncoding regions of the genome. Due to the recurring nature of the sequences, simple DNA repeats tend to be more prone to errors during replication and repair, resulting in variability in their unit length ...

BAF60/SWP73 subunits define subclasses of SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complexes in Arabidopsis
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Evolutionarily conserved switch‐defective/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) ATP‐dependent chromatin remodelling complexes (CRCs) alter nucleosome positioning and chromatin states, affecting gene expression to regulate important processes such as proper development and hormonal signalling pathways.

Nectar metabolomes contribute to pollination syndromes
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary ‘Pollination syndromes’, where convergent floral signals reflect selection from a functional pollinator group, are often characterized by physical features, yet floral rewards such as nectar may also reflect selection from pollinators. We asked whether nectar chemistry shows evidence of convergence across functional pollinator groups, i.e.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) are compounds that are not involved in primary metabolism but instead confer other roles for the plant host, often related to ecological interactions. In the field of plant–microbe interactions, many PSMs have traditionally been considered for their roles in shaping interactions with pathogens.

Non‐coding RNAs in plant stress responses: molecular insights and agricultural applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Non‐coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in plant responses to environmental stress, orchestrating complex networks that finetune gene expression under both abiotic and biotic challenges. To elucidate this intricate ncRNA crosstalk, this review comprehensively summarizes recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of key ...

CsMYB213‐CsbHLH35 module regulates theanine biosynthesis in tea plants (Camellia sinensis L.)
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary Theanine is a non‐protein free amino acid accumulated in tea plant leaves and makes a major contribution to the unique umami and sweet taste and a multitude of human health benefits of tea. However, its biosynthesis and transcriptional regulation in tea plant leaves remain to be fully understood.
