Progress and Challenges in Faba Bean Genetic Engineering

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes are essential for global food security, serving as a vital source of plant‐based protein and playing a significant role in sustainable agricultural practices. Among legumes, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is noteworthy due to its high‐protein content, broad climate adaptation, and suitability for cultivation in temperate regions.

Constructing Haustorium-Specific cDNA Libraries from Rust Fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The haustorium is a distinguishing feature of biotrophic plant pathogens. Several highly diverged -pathogen classes have independently evolved haustoria, suggesting that they represent an effective adaptation for growing within living plant tissue.

Disarming the Pathogen's Metabolic Weapon: A Novel Route to Durable Disease Resistance

open access: yesModern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
Two routes to sugar acquisition in pathogenic bacteria and corresponding ‘pathogen‐starvation’ strategies. TAL effectors activate plant SWEET transporters to promote sucrose efflux into the apoplast, which can be blocked by editing SWEET promoter effector‐binding elements to prevent TAL binding. The T3E AvrBs2 converts host UDP‐galactose into xanthosan,

Abscisic acid and the antioxidant system are involved in germination of Butia capitata seeds

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2018
Seed germination is an important step for plants without vegetative propagation and is a physiological process that begins with specific environmental cues resulting in biochemical responses. Breaking-dormancy is necessary to study germination in dormant

Deciphering the soybean root rot pathogen Phytophthora sojae: Signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and effector biology

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

Strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in Castilleja

open access: yesiScience
Strigolactones serve as germination signals for several root-parasitic plant species within the Orobanchaceae family. Yet, their role in the life cycle of the facultatively parasitic genus Castilleja has remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that strigolactones initiate the formation of haustorium-like structures in Castilleja.

Evaluations on the physical, chemical and nutritional analyses of coconut haustorium

open access: yesFood Research
Coconut haustorium is a part of the embryo embedded in the endosperm nearer to the coconut germination pores. This young sponge part will grow to form a cotyledon structure known as a haustorium. The coconut haustorium will grow and finally fill the entire coconut water cavity within 20-24 weeks after germination.

Embryo sac haustorium in Dryas octopetala L. (Rosaceae)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The embryo sac haustorium found in <em>Dryas octopetala</em> L. from the Tatra Mts is the first record of its occurrence in <em>Rosaceae</em>. At the eight-nucleate stage of the embryo sac, the antipodal end of the central cell began to grow into a narrow caecum filled with dense cytoplasm and elongated in the chalazal direction
