Activities of amine oxidase, peroxidase and catalase in seedlings of Pisum sativum L. under different light conditions

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2003
The activities of amine oxidase, peroxidase and catalase were studied in 12 cultivars of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and one accession of wild pea (Pisum sativum subsp. transcaucasicum).

Designer lignins: harnessing the plasticity of lignification

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2016
Lignin is a complex polyphenolic constituent of plant secondary cell walls. Inspired largely by the recalcitrance of lignin to biomass processing, plant engineering efforts have routinely sought to alter lignin quantity, composition, and structure by exploiting the inherent plasticity of lignin biosynthesis. More recently, researchers are attempting to

Identification of stripe rust adult plant resistance genes in the hard winter wheat cultivar Baker's Ann

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is among the most destructive wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) diseases. Identifying resistance genes is crucial for the development of resistant cultivars. Baker's Ann, a hard winter wheat cultivar developed by Oklahoma State University, has shown stable adult plant resistance to stripe ...

Biomimetic Multiscale‐Structured Biomass Graphene/Polyurethane Sponge Composite for Flexible Pressure Sensors and Intelligent Cushioning Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
In this study, a multifunctional conductive sponge composite (MAPU) is developed using a biomimetic, hierarchical construction strategy emulating the growth process of natural wood. This approach involved integrating biomass‐derived graphitic nanoflakes, synthesized from luffa vine (LVGN), into a polyurethane (PU) sponge matrix.

Non‐ Conventional Agents Enhance Sweet Pepper (Capsicum annuum L. var. annuum) Defense against Aphis Gossypii, Thrips Tabaci, and Their Predators Chrysoperla Carnea and Orius Insidiosus

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A study conducted in Egypt evaluated the effectiveness of chemical and microbial agents in enhancing sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum) defenses against major pests Aphis gossypii and Thrips tabaci and their natural predators, Chrysoperla carnea and Orius insidiosus. Five foliar treatments were tested under greenhouse conditions during

Biomechanical Trade‐Offs Between Root Tensile Strength and Porosity in Coastal Marshes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Root biomechanics play a fundamental role in stabilizing wetland soils and sustaining coastal ecosystems under increasing environmental stress. This study investigates the tensile strength (TS) and internal porosity (n) of roots from two dominant marsh grasses, Spartina alterniflora and Spartina patens, across four sites in the Mississippi ...

Systemic Activation of the Antioxidant System by Root Priming With Non‐Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum in Flax Infected With Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Fusarium oxysporum Fo47 primes flax by locally suppressing pathogens in roots and systemically activating antioxidant defences in shoots, offering a sustainable plant protection strategy. ABSTRACT Plants rely on specialised adaptive mechanisms to enhance resistance against environmental stress.

Biology, Detection, and Management of Lecanosticta acicola: Emerging Challenges for the Management of Brown Spot Needle Blight in Pine Forests

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Brown spot needle blight (BSNB), caused by the fungus Lecanosticta acicola, is a widely distributed foliar disease of pines that causes needle necrosis, premature defoliation, and growth loss in both natural forests and commercial plantations. Although L.
