Plant accession and insect infestation, rather than silicon supplementation, shape defence strategies of Arabidopsis halleri towards a leaf beetle

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Chemical and mechanical defences of a metal‐hyperaccumulating plant species Arabidopsis halleri were more influenced by plant accession (genetic background) and insect herbivory by a leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae than by supplementation of the metalloid silicon.

Aphid parasitism alters induced plant responses allowing a hyperparasitoid to locate its hidden parasitoid host

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2055-2070, February 2026.
Summary Plants typically host insect communities composed of multiple trophic levels that are intricately linked through interactions mediated by the shared food plant. Hyperparasitoids are top‐level carnivores in such systems, preying on parasitoid larvae developing inside herbivores. These hyperparasitoids can dramatically reduce the effectiveness of

Targeted Mutagenesis of the Multicopy Myrosinase Gene Family in Allotetraploid Brassica juncea Reduces Pungency in Fresh Leaves across Environments

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Recent breeding efforts in Brassica have focused on the development of new oilseed feedstock crop for biofuels (e.g., ethanol, biodiesel, bio-jet fuel), bio-industrial uses (e.g., bio-plastics, lubricants), specialty fatty acids (e.g., erucic acid), and ...

Elucidation of Sulforaphane‐Mediated Effects on the Cellular Human Metabolome Using Metabolic Profiling

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate derived from broccoli and is related to various health‐promoting effects. By using metabolic profiling on the hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 several effects on pathways such as TCA cycle, urea cycle and redox metabolism through SFN were identified.

Sulphoraphane Affinity-Based Chromatography for the Purification of Myrosinase from Lepidium sativum Seeds

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Sulforaphane and other natural isothiocyanates released from the respective plant glucosinolates by the plant enzyme myrosinase (β-thioglucoside glucohydrolase) show extensive anticancer and antimicrobial effects.

Studies on the Myrosinase fromWasabia japonica:Purification and Some Properties of Wasabi Myrosinase

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1979
The myrosinase from Wasabi (Wasabia japonica) is effectively extracted by sonication. The enzyme is purified about 100-fold by gel-filtration on Sephacryl S-200, Sepharose 6B and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. The enzyme is active only when L-ascorbic acid is added to the reaction mixture. General reducing reagents (2-mercaptoethanol and

Effect of Glucoraphanin on the Abundance of Nrf2 Regulated Genes Within Circulating Small Extracellular Vesicles: A Pilot Dietary Intervention

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 2, 29 January 2026.
Broccoli accumulates glucoraphanin, converted to sulforaphane, which activates nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2), which may reduce age‐related inflammation. Given sulforaphane's rapid excretion, we hypothesised that its effects are mediated via plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs).

SNRK3.15 Is a Crucial Component of the Sulfur Deprivation Response in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Sulfate deprivation (–S) results in numerous metabolic and phenotypic alterations in plants. Kinases are often key players in transducing nutrient status signals to molecular components involved in metabolic and developmental program regulation, but despite the physiological importance of sulfur, to date, no signaling kinases have been ...

Allyl isothiocyanate induced stress response in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) from mustard is cytotoxic; however the mechanism of its toxicity is unknown. We examined the effects of AITC on heat shock protein (HSP) 70 expression in Caenorhabditis elegans.
