40S ribosome biogenesis co-factors are essential for gametophyte and embryo development [PDF]
, 2013 Ribosome biogenesis is well described in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In contrast only very little information is available on this pathway in plants. This study presents the characterization of five putative protein co-factors of ribosome biogenesis in ...

Evolution of molecular communication in the permanent Azolla symbiosis
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1666-1674, February 2026.Summary Heritable symbioses exist across eukaryotes with different degrees of intimacy. In most cases, the symbionts are obligate and require inheritance for their survival. On the host side, symbiont retention can facilitate fitness benefits. Only rarely are these symbioses interwoven to the point that host survival relies on the symbiont.

Doubled Haploid production in fruit crops. [PDF]
, 2006 The interest of fruit breeders in haploids and doubled haploids (DH), lies in the possibility of shortening the time needed to produce homozygous lines compared to conventional breeding.

Loss of E3 ligase HvST1 function substantially increases distal crossover frequency
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1325-1341, February 2026.Summary This study characterizes the function of a grass‐specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, HvST1, in regulating synapsis and crossover (CO) formation during meiosis in barley (Hordeum vulgare). In large‐genome cereals, COs are predominantly restricted to distal chromosomal regions, limiting genetic recombination and breeding flexibility.

Mapping QTLs for mineral accumulation and shoot dry biomass under different Zn nutritional conditions in Chinese cabbage ( Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis ) [PDF]
, 2008 Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis) is one of the most important vegetables in China. Genetic dissection of leaf mineral accumulation and tolerance to Zn stress is important for the improvement of the nutritional quality of Chinese cabbage

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT Abiotic stress, particularly heat and drought, significantly impacts plant reproductive development, threatening crop productivity and food security. Understanding stress tolerance mechanisms requires a multi‐level approach that integrates physiological, biochemical, and molecular traits in different experimental settings. This review explores

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.
