Plant responses to iron nutrition with emphasis on the underutilized crop tef (Eragrostis tef): A review

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Iron (Fe) deficiency limits the physical health, cognitive development, and economic output of billions of people globally, especially children and productive‐age women. Tef is an underutilized and stress‐resilient crop, which is becoming popular for its grains containing high bioavailable Fe and has the potential to mitigate Fe deficiency.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant performance in trace element‐contaminated soils with element‐specific accumulation patterns

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil contamination by toxic trace elements is a growing global challenge that threatens food safety, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem health. We combined results from many experiments worldwide to assess whether beneficial soil fungi can help plants cope with contaminated soils.

When alien plants become health hazards: An applied study on toxic and allergenic risks in Italy

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Alien plants are often studied for their ecological harm, but their risks to human and animal health remain poorly documented. This study provides the first comprehensive catalogue of poisonous and allergenic alien plants in Italy, identifying which species are dangerous, where they grow and who is most at risk—from children in city parks to pets and ...

A putative nursery pollination mutualism between Japanese Chrysosplenium plants and Nipponorhynchus sawflies

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding ecological interactions is increasingly important for biodiversity conservation. This study reveals a unique nursery pollination mutualism between Japanese endemic plants and sawflies. These partners exhibit tightly synchronized life cycles in riparian forests, making them sensitive to environmental changes.

Novel tetronamides derived from mucobromic acid: synthesis, structural elucidation, DFT calculations and phytotoxic activity

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The acyclic mucobromic acid, activated by (1S)‐(+)‐10‐camphorsulfonic acid, afforded the chiral compound 1b, precursor for aza‐Michael addition/elimination on the butenolide yielding tetronamides 2b‐7b. Their relative SRSR configuration was confirmed by the spectrometric methods, DFT calculation and statistical methods.

In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action. Cinmethylin inhibits FATs, disrupting eukaryotic de novo lipid biosynthesis and causing defects in cell division, elongation and integrity. We confirm FATs as the primary site of action in planta.

Comprehensive analysis of microtubule‐inhibiting herbicides reveals shared subcellular phenotypes and distinct resistance profiles

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Using cellular phenotyping and resistance profiling, we show that herbicides across the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) Groups 3 and 23 induce indistinguishable, dose‐dependent microtubule defects. Resistance patterns, rather than cellular phenotypes, reveal distinct sites of action and support reclassifying Group 3 as α‐tubulin binders ...
