Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Towards domestication ofJatropha curcas

Biofuels, 2010
Jatropha curcas L. attracts a lot of interest as a biofuel crop, triggering large investments and rapid expansion of cultivation areas, and yet, it should still be considered as a (semi-)wild, undomesticated plant. To use the full potential of Jatropha and to support further expansion and systematic selection, breeding and domestication are a ...

Fertiliser supplementation with a PGR complex of chlormequat chloride (CCC) and paclobutrazol (PBZ) alters Cannabis sativa growth

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 53, Issue 5, Page 3113-3123, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Cannabis (Cannabis sativa) is a high‐value crop, wherein growth within controlled environments is common for the purposes of maximising yield, quality, and uniformity, however, uncontrolled‐growth in proximity to artificial lighting can compromise yields. Within the floricultural industry it is common practice to apply plant growth regulators (
