Functional foods : a conceptual model for assessing their safety and effectiveness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This report shows that the product-diet dilemma can be solved by developing a predictive model. The model integrates food intake data, dynamic consumption patterns and the production chain model and combines them with a risk-benefit ...

Anholocyclic overwintering of Myzus persicae: Host plant selection as a driver for aphid performance and survival

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 732-744, May 2026.
The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, is the main virus vector in sugar beet. We examine its performance on potential winter hosts as well as the host selection and overwintering success of anholicyclic aphids in order to improve forecasting models for virus outbreaks through targeted monitoring of suitable winter hosts. Abstract Virus yellows (VY) is

Impact of High Glucosinolate Mustard Biomass and Meal on Black Bean Yield [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Brassicae crops (mustard family) contain chemicals called glucosinolates. These compounds are present in the leaves, stem, roots, and seed of the plants.

Genetic Variation in Chemical Defence Affects Protection of an Herbivorous Insect Against Predation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic variation contributes to intraspecific differences in the chemical defence in many insect species, yet the underlying genetic mechanisms remain poorly understood. The horseradish flea beetle, Phyllotreta armoraciae, sequesters glucosinolates from its horseradish host plant and activates them using endogenous myrosinase enzymes.

‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Effector SDE4250 Targets Citrus Proteasome Protein RPN10 to Inhibit Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
SDE4250 suppressed 26S proteasome activity by targeting CsRPN10 and enhancing its degradation via the proteasome pathway. This impairment of proteasome function subsequently attenuates SA‐mediated defence responses, thereby increasing citrus susceptibility to promote CLas infection.

Down-regulation of LACS8A03 gene in Brassica napus L. decrease the content of glucosinolates

open access: yesOil Crop Science
Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (LACS), belonging to the AMP-bound superfamily, catalyzes the activation of long-chain fatty acids to their coenzyme A esters.

Nutritional value of cruciferous oilseed crops in relation to profile of accumulated biomolecules with especial regard to glucosinolates transformation products [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Cruciferous oilseed crops accumulate relatively high concentrations of nutritional high quality oil and proteins in their seeds. In addition to these major seed components, their co-occurrence with high concentrations of dietary fibre (DF) and various ...

Cell‐type‐specific gating of gene regulatory modules as a hallmark of early immune responses in Arabidopsis leaves

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2007-2025, May 2026.
Summary In plants, multiple cell types contribute to immunity, but what division of labor exists among cell types when immunity is activated? We compared, at single‐cell resolution, the response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells during pattern‐triggered and effector‐triggered immunity (PTI/ETI), sampled at 3 and 5 h after infection with Pseudomonas ...

The Arabidopsis NPF7.2 mediates coumarin uptake for root iron acquisition

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1619-1633, May 2026.
Summary Iron (Fe) is a transition metal necessary for achieving essential physiological processes throughout the plant lifecycle. In Arabidopsis thaliana, secreting Fe‐mobilizing coumarins (FMC) is a key mechanism enabling roots to acquire nonbioavailable Fe present in soils.
