A Highly Stable Zinc‐Mimosinate Metal–Organic Framework for Controlled Agrochemical Delivery

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 11, 15 April 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the design of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as agrochemicals constructed from active building blocks. The highly robust GR‐MOF‐25 is assembled from the natural herbicide L‐mimosine and Zn2+ ions, combining herbicidal, micronutrient, and antibacterial properties.

KRP3 Stability Controls Rice Plant Architecture and Productivity via MPK3‐Mediated Phosphorylation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1204-1222, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Yield is a critical agronomic trait in cereal crops, shaped by factors like tiller and seed number, and seed weight. Understanding the factors governing these traits will help in improving the yield of plants. In this study, we identified an orphan gene, KRP3, belonging to cereal crops as a key regulator of rice plant architecture.

A Review of Infectious and Non‐Infectious Causes of Pregnancy Loss in Goats

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Goats play a vital role in global agriculture, particularly in developing regions, and are increasingly kept as companion animals. Given their economic and social importance, pregnancy losses in goats represent a substantial challenge, leading to considerable economic losses and raising concerns about animal welfare and public health, as some ...

Systemic Toxicity of L‐Mimosine in Rabbits: A Non‐Rodent Model for Safety Assessment

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 639-651, February 2026.
ABSTRACT L‐mimosine is a non‐protein amino acid primarily found in the Mimosoideae subfamily, with high concentrations in Leucaena leucocephala and Mimosa pudica. These plants are widely used in both human and animal nutrition, as well as in phytotherapeutic applications. While the toxic effects of L‐mimosine have been extensively studied in ruminants,

The Cytological Effects of Mimosine

CYTOLOGIA, 1968
Treatment of dividing cells in root tips of Vicia faba with either mimosine or the sodium salt of mimosine in aqueous solution resulted in clumping and non-division of chromosomes at metaphase. A c-mitosis sometimes resulted from treatment with relatively low concentrations.
