The diversity of karyotypes and genomes within section Syllinum of the Genus Linum (Linaceae) revealed by molecular cytogenetic markers and RAPD analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The wide variation in chromosome number found in species of the genus Linum (2n = 16, 18, 20, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 42, 72, 84) indicates that chromosomal mutations have played an important role in the speciation of this taxon.

Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Comparative Phytochemical and Fatty Acid Profiling of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) Cultivars Across Diverse Geographic Origins

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 5, May 2026.
Flax varieties differ in growth, oil quality, and beneficial compounds, but these differences are not always clear‐cut. In this study, 10 flax types were grown under the same conditions and compared for plant traits, natural compounds, and oil content. Some showed high omega‐3 and lignan levels, making them valuable for healthier foods and future crop ...

Autoactive Alleles of the Flax L6 Rust Resistance Gene Induce Non-Race-Specific Rust Resistance Associated with the Hypersensitive Response

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2005
L6 is a nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat (NBS-LRR) gene that confers race-specific resistance in flax (Linum usitatissimum) to strains of flax rust (Melampsora lini) that carry avirulence alleles of the AvrL567 gene but not to rust strains ...

Multi‐Target Mechanisms of Moroccan Aphrodisiac Plants: An Integrative Computational and Phytochemical Investigation

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Moroccan medicinal plants with in silico‐approved aphrodisiac effects provide 94 phytochemicals. Docking against PDE5, AR, ERα, and aromatase gives top scores for lutein (−10.6), baicalein (−9.5), liquiritigenin (−9.2), and procyanidins (−9.7). ADMET filtering passes baicalein and liquiritigenin but excludes lutein and procyanidins. MD simulations (200

Genetic variability and associations among yield and yield‐related traits in Ethiopian linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) landraces

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is a key oilseed crop in Ethiopia's central highlands. However, its productivity is constrained by the limited availability of high‐yielding varieties, highlighting the importance of investigating genetic variability and trait associations among local landraces.

Microsatellite marker development in the crop wild relative Linum bienne using genome skimming

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2020
Premise Nuclear microsatellite markers were developed for Linum bienne, the sister species of the crop L. usitatissimum, to provide molecular genetic tools for the investigation of L. bienne genetic diversity and structure.

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 2, March-April 2026.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.

Nutritional and Health Potential of Edible Seeds: Micronutrient Bioavailability and Mechanistic Insights

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Their bioactive constituents act through antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and metabolic‐regulating mechanisms, validating their classification as functional foods. Evidence from clinical and biochemical studies largely supports these benefits, although some claims stem from preliminary or in vitro findings.
