Biochemical Defence of Plants against Parasitic Nematodes

Plants
Plant parasitic nematodes (PPNs), such as Meloidogyne spp., Heterodera spp. and Pratylenchus spp., are obligate parasites on a wide range of crops, causing significant agricultural production losses worldwide. These PPNs mainly feed on and within roots, impairing both the below-ground and the above-ground parts, resulting in reduced plant performance ...

Combined effects of lance nematode populations and use of plant growth regulators on creeping bentgrass putting greens

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used to optimize turfgrass growth, reduce management inputs, and potentially mitigate diseases. However, golf course superintendents have reported anecdotal evidence linking increased PGR‐induced phytotoxicity with high populations of lance nematodes (Hoplolaimus galeatus).

Influence of irrigation and cultivar on peanut growth and yield

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Understanding the influence of cultural practices on peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) growth and development is important for enhancing production in North Carolina. Irrigation practices and cultivar selection can influence pest reaction, peanut pod yield, and market grade characteristics.

Can Repeated Reductive Genome Evolution Across Archaeplastida Explain Volatility in Traits?

Advanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 4, December 2026.
Genome evolution in Archaeplastida is often framed around gene gains and increasing complexity. Yet ancestral reconstructions reveal recurrent genome contraction, with ancestors frequently harboring larger gene repertoires than descendants. Across red algae, land‐plant ancestry, and embryophyte diversification, repeated expansion and reduction cycles ...

Advances in the Integration of Genomic and Phenomic Tools in Cowpea Breeding for Improving Stress Resilience and Grain Yield and Quality

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) is a multi‐use crop highly valued as a food crop, high‐protein fodder, and sustainable cover crop. Yet, it remains underused, and yields in most growing regions are below the crop's potential due to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses.

Mucuna pruriens as a Sustainable Functional Food: Applications From Seed to Product

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.
This review highlights Mucuna pruriens as a nutrient‐rich legume with significant nutritional, therapeutic, and agricultural value. Its protein‐rich seeds contain essential minerals and L‐DOPA, but high antinutritional compounds require effective processing before consumption.

Beyond Mycorrhizae: A Multi‐Kingdom Community in Epiphytic Orchid Roots Reveals Cyanobacteria Intracellular and a Velamen Microbial Refuge

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 6, December 2026.
This study redefines orchid ecology by revealing Cattleya purpurata roots host a multi‐kingdom microbiota. We report the first intracellular cyanobacteria in orchids, coexisting with mycorrhizal fungi in the cortex. The velamen functions as a structured refuge for specific, highly diverse microbial communities. ChatGPT (OpenAI) was used only for visual

Modulation of Anaphase‐Promoting Complex Genes Regulates Root‐Knot Nematode Gall Development and Plant Susceptibility

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 10379-10400, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The anaphase‐promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi‐subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that regulates cell cycle progression, but its role in plant‐pathogen interactions is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that regulation of the ubiquitin–proteasome system, involving APC/C‐associated components, is critical for coordinating host cell ...

Insect-Parasitic Nematodes Resembling Plant-Parasitic Forms

, 1988
Entomo-nematology is a large discipline. Poinar (1975) records 3150 cases of association between nematodes and insects, and there are 1140 entries in Shephard (1974). However, only a small fraction of these nematodes resemble plant-parasitic forms. They are found among Aphelenchida and Tylenchida, and they represent about 450 species distributed among ...
