Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Beyond a dual role: how Purpureocillium lilacinum reprograms citrus metabolism for integrated biocontrol and growth promotion

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants harbor complex microbial communities that are fundamental to their health and productivity. Among them, endophytic fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum establish mutualistic associations, offering dual benefits as plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.

Phytochemical composition and cultivar‐dependent variation in colored lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and their α‐amylase inhibitory activity

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study investigated cultivar‐dependent variation in the phytochemical composition of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) profiling and high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) quantification, with a focus on enzyme inhibitory activity. RESULTS Significant differences were

Polymeric nano‐delivery of gibberellic acid enhances fruit quality, yield and pedicel strength in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.)

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Nanoparticulate systems offer an effective strategy for the targeted delivery of agrochemicals and for enhancing their efficacy. This study aimed to synthesize and characterize gibberellic acid (GA3)‐loaded poly(d,l‐lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) nanoparticles (PLGA NPs) and to evaluate the effects of their application on the flower ...

Agronomic and nutritional performance of lentil–hull‐less barley mixtures under temperate Swiss conditions: protein content, protein yield stability, β‐glucan content and separation ability

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Intercropping of legumes with cereals enhances resilience, resource efficiency, and nutritional quality in food systems, yet few studies have integrated yield stability with grain quantity and post‐harvest processability. Lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.) and hull‐less barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var.

Cereal–legume intercropping for climate‐smart livestock production: insights from oat–alfalfa intercropping

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cereal–legume intercropping can improve forage productivity and quality at the same time as enhancing soil function and reducing environmental impacts, yet integrative evaluations under low‐input conditions are scarce. This study assessed oat (Avena sativa L.)–alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) intercropping for forage yield, nutritive ...
