Innovations in Edible Packaging Films, Coatings, and Antimicrobial Agents for Applications in Food Industry

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 4, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Packaging reduction, particularly in terms of single‐use plastic (SUP) packaging waste, as well as restrictions on specific packaging formats and regulatory requirements, are driving the demand for sustainable packaging solutions. Notably, within the category of SUP products, packaging accounts for the highest share at 40%. Therefore, advanced

Pharmacophagy in insects: Ecological and evolutionary perspectives on the non‐nutritional use of plant specialized metabolites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 661-673, July 2025.
Insects interact with plants not only for nutrition but also to actively seek plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) for chemical defense, reproduction, and self‐medication—a behavior known as pharmacophagy. This review examines how insects across diverse orders acquire PSMs from both food and non‐food plants for non‐nutritional benefits.

Natural variation of CsUGT71A60 determines growth and cold tolerance via regulating cytokinin glycosylation in Camellia sinensis

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 2809-2823, July 2025.
Summary Cold stress severely limits tea plant (Camellia sinensis) productivity, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying cold adaptation remain elusive. Here, we identified a cold‐inducible glycosyltransferase, CsUGT71A60, through integrative genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) and proteomic profiling.
