ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

ABSTRACT Legume plants can interact with nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) simultaneously, forming a tripartite symbiotic association. Co‐inoculation studies performed on a variety of legumes have shown that rhizobia and AMF influence each other when they co‐occur in tripartite association and affect host plant ...

Drought stress leads to reduced nectar secretion and alters nectar composition of day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species, which may impair plant–pollinator interactions. Abstract The frequencies of droughts worldwide will increase in the future due to climate changes. Nectar composition of plant species varies in relation to pollinator and can also

Pre‐treatment of grapevine plants with oregano essential oil vapour alleviates downy mildew susceptibility by accumulation of monoterpenol glycosides. Abstract Grapevine downy mildew, caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola, is a destructive disease that causes major economic losses as most elite grapevine cultivars are susceptible to this pathogen.

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

Influence of Two Hexose Transporters on Substrate Affinity and Pathogenicity in Magnaporthe oryzae
Hexose transporters (HXT) play a crucial role in the pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae, serving not only as key facilitators for acquiring and transporting sugar nutrients to support pathogen development, but also as sugar sensors which receive ...

Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Lactuca sativa L. losses and wastes as a source of biobased ingredients
Abstract BACKGROUND The growing global population and increasing consumer focus on healthy eating challenge the agricultural sector to ensure both sustainable food production and safety. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa Mill.), the most cultivated leafy vegetable worldwide, can lose up to 40% of its weight during processing.

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...
