CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Editing in Plant Immunity and Its Potential for the Future Development of Fungal, Oomycete, and Bacterial Pathogen‐Resistant Pulse Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3573-3585, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.

Effects of Elevated CO2 on Bean Pod Mottle Virus Infection in Both Incompatible and Compatible Interactions With Phaseolus vulgaris L

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4493-4512, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses cause significant crop losses, a situation that could worsen due to anthropogenic activities driving global climate change, one factor of which is the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. This study assessed the impact of elevated CO2 concentration (eCO2, 1000 vs. 400 ppm) on two genotypes of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Identification and Functional Characterization of Isoflavone synthase Gene Family in Pea (Pisum sativum): The Entry Point to Pisatin Biosynthesis

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Isoflavone synthase (IFS), a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase of the CYP93C subfamily, catalyzes the conversion of flavanones into isoflavones, the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoflavonoid phytoalexins. In pea (Pisum sativum L.), the phytoalexin pisatin plays a pivotal role in defense against pathogens.

Progress and Challenges in Faba Bean Genetic Engineering

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes are essential for global food security, serving as a vital source of plant‐based protein and playing a significant role in sustainable agricultural practices. Among legumes, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is noteworthy due to its high‐protein content, broad climate adaptation, and suitability for cultivation in temperate regions.

Pyoverdine Plays Only a Minor, Strain‐Specific Role in the Inhibition of Phytophthora infestans by Pseudomonas Strains

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Pseudomonas strains R32 and R47 inhibit Phytophthora infestans, which causes late blight in potato. To assess the importance of pyoverdine, a high‐affinity siderophore both strains produce, in P. infestans inhibition, we produced pyoverdine‐deficient mutants and tested their antagonistic activity at different developmental stages of the pathogen ...

Cellulose Biosynthesis in Oomycetes [Elektronisk resurs]

, 2008
Oomycetes have long been considered as a separate class within the kingdom Fungi, but they are in fact closer to brown algae. They are currently classified in the Stramenopile eukaryotic kingdom, which includes heterokont algae and water molds. The major
