Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...

Application of Bacillus tequilensis for the control of gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea in blueberry and mechanisms of action: inducing phenylpropanoid pathway metabolism

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundBotrytis cinerea a blueberry gray mold, is one of the main diseases affecting postharvest storage, causing significant losses. Several studies have shown that Bacillus tequilensis can prevent the growth of plant pathogens by producing various ...

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Estimating the minimal cost of delivering nutrition‐specific and nutrition‐sensitive interventions in Ethiopia

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
The minimum cost of the 10 years on identified nutrition‐specific and nutrition‐sensitive interventions of the National Food and Nutrition Strategy in Ethiopia is estimated to be US$ 2.55bn with an average annual cost of $250 million over 10 years (2021–2030), which is only 2.3% of the Ethiopian Annual GDP 111.27 billion US dollars in 2021 (World bank).

Unexpected Suppression of Tomato Fruit Cuticle Formation by Overexpression of a Key Cutin Biosynthetic Enzyme

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit cuticles regulate the diffusion of water, gases and solutes, functioning as essential protective interfaces against environmental and biotic stresses. Engineering cuticle structure and mechanics therefore represents a promising strategy for improving fruit quality and resilience.

Mechanism Analysis of Amphotericin B Controlling Postharvest Gray Mold in Table Grapes

Foods
Gray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is the primary factor contributing to postharvest losses in table grape fruit. In this study, we have identified amphotericin B (AMB), a natural compound originating from Streptomyces nodosus, as a promising agent ...

Enhancing Frozen Storage Stability and Nutritional Quality of Barhi Dates Using Okra Extract and Gelatin-Based Edible Coatings Combined With Different Packaging Systems. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Okra and gelatin edible coatings preserved Barhi date quality during frozen storage. Gelatin at 100 g L−1 with polyethylene packaging showed the best overall performance. Coatings improved dry matter, carbohydrates, protein, and sugar retention. Okra extract increased nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in stored dates.

Selection of Apple Trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) Based on Genetic Parameters Estimated Through Mixed Models

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Brazilian apple breeding (Malus domestica Borkh.), Active Germplasm Banks are providing the genetic diversity required for selecting genotypes with low chilling requirements, high yield and superior fruit quality. This study estimated genetic parameters and perform genotype selection based on phenotypic traits from the IDR‐Paraná breeding ...

Intercropping and low‐rate banded fertilizer to reduce nitrogen leaching in sweet corn

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Water quality can be impacted by agricultural production on coarse‐textured, low organic matter soils where groundwater is shallow. This study investigated the effects of intercropping, decreased nitrogen rate, and precision nitrogen placement as nitrate leaching reduction strategies on sweet corn (Zea mays L.) yield.
