Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Grey mould, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is a significant postharvest disease leading to substantial economic losses in the grape industry. This study investigated the regulatory mechanism of 3‐methyl‐1‐butanol (3M1B), a yeast volatile substance, on B. cinerea resistance in red grapes (Vitis vinifera L.).

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ripening of climacteric fruits is characterised by a sharp increase in ethylene production, coinciding with the conversion of starch into soluble sugars. However, the regulatory interplay between ethylene and starch degradation in apple remains largely unclear. Here, we report a negative correlation between starch accumulation and ethylene

The Postharvest Education Foundation’s role in reducing postharvest losses
Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018 The Postharvest Education Foundation (PEF) was founded to address postharvest losses through education and training. Postharvest expertisewas identified as a key weakness in many developing countries. The PEF provides innovative programs that motivate and empower people to reduce food losses and waste. At the heart of the PEF is a structured e-learning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Free amino acids (FAAs) play a fundamental role in determining fruit quality and stress adaptation, yet their genetic regulation remains poorly understood. Through an integrated approach combining metabolomic and sensory analyses of 120 peach (Prunus persica) hybrids, we identified glutamate as a key metabolite linking FAA content to umami ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ethylene plays a crucial role in fruit ripening and is perceived by specialised receptor proteins embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. As an ethylene antagonist, 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) binds to these receptors and delays papaya ripening, but improper use can cause ripening disorders.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pathogens commonly secrete effectors into host cells to facilitate invasion. In the host ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS), E3 ubiquitin ligases often target pathogen effectors for degradation, thereby enhancing immune responses. In turn, pathogen effectors frequently disrupt E3 ligase function to promote virulence. However, it remains largely

Photochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 338-349, March/April 2025.In the present work with mouse models, we demonstrate that a novel compound, NEO400, is able to profoundly protect skin against damage caused by UV radiation (UVR) when it is applied to skin post‐UVR exposure. In comparison, Aloe vera or linoleic acid are unable to achieve a similar level of protection.

Artificial intelligence‐powered plant phenomics: Progress, challenges, and opportunities
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI), a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is being rapidly integrated into plant phenomics to automate sensing, accelerate data analysis, and support decision‐making in phenomic prediction and genomic selection.

Peanut combine residue distribution and nutrient stratification across the harvest swath
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production contributes substantial organic matter and nutrients to subsequent rotations, but residue distribution by harvest equipment is often uneven. This study quantified peanut chaff distribution across 6‐row combines at multiple sites in the Missouri Delta during 2023 and 2024.

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT Small‐scale fisheries and aquaculture constitute critical pillars of food security, livelihoods, and rural economies across East Africa, yet persistent gendered inequalities continue to constrain both equity and sectoral performance. This study provides a synthesis of empirical evidence from Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania to examine how ...
