A century of vitamin E research: The innovative journey from basic biology to synthetic bio‐manufacturing

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 985-1012, April 2026.
For a century, Vitamin E has been studied for its health benefits. This review traces its journey from basic biological discovery, and the recent identification of its link to chlorophyll degradation, to the modern era of sustainable microbial manufacturing, highlighting the innovative technologies that define its future production.

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 54-73, April 2026.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

A Chemical Probe for Increasing Leaf Tocopherol Levels by Coordinated Modulation of Biosynthesis, Competition and Storage

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2204-2219, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant biofortification with phytonutrients typically relies on metabolic engineering strategies known as ‘push’ (enhancing biosynthetic flux), ‘block’ (inhibiting competing pathways) and ‘pull’ (promoting metabolite storage). Here, we describe a novel synthetic compound, X57, that simultaneously targets biosynthesis, competition and storage to

Two Indel Variations in the Regulated Carotenoid Pigment Gene Hold the Key to the Interspecies Flower Colour Differentiation in Liriodendron Plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2260-2275, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Flower colour variation is pivotal for plant evolution, ecological adaptation, and pollinator attraction. In the Liriodendron genus, L. tulipifera features a distinct orange petal stripe which is absent in L. chinense, driven by differential carotenoid accumulation, yet the underlying genetic mechanism remains unclear.
