Dehydration‐driven organization of metabolites into NaDES‐like assemblies in orthodox seeds

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1172-1187, August 2026.
Summary Desiccation tolerance in plants, especially during orthodox seed dehydration, relies on compatible solute accumulation, complex molecular mechanisms, and intermolecular organizations that remain poorly understood. We combined metabolite profiling, mass spectrometry imaging, and electrospray and cold‐spray ionization mass spectrometry to ...

Phloem loading in Verbascum phoeniceum L. depends on the synthesis of raffinose-family oligosaccharides [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Phloem loading is the initial step in photoassimilate export and the one that creates the driving force for mass flow. It has been proposed that loading occurs symplastically in species that translocate carbohydrate primarily as raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs).

Metabolism of oligosaccharides and starch in lactobacilli: a review

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Oligosaccharides, compounds that are composed of 2 – 10 monosaccharide residues, are major carbohydrate sources in habitats populated by lactobacilli. Moreover, oligosaccharide metabolism is essential for ecological fitness of lactobacilli.

Physiology and Transcriptomics Reveal Divergent Strategies of Mycorrhiza‐Mediated Drought Adaptation in Poplar

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5078-5094, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mycorrhizal symbiosis shapes plant growth and stress resilience. Here, we compared physiological and molecular responses of poplars (P. x canescens) colonised by Paxillus involutus (Pi) or Cenococcum geophilum (Cg) under control conditions, drought stress and recovery.

Understanding the Significance of Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides in Seed Physiology

Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology
Seed vigour and longevity are pivotal agronomic traits with profound implications for crop yield, food security, and the global economy. Seed longevity, often defined by the duration of seed viability, is crucial for effective gene bank management, influencing seed regeneration cycles and ensuring the long-term conservation of plant genetic resources ...

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 829-850, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Design of Plant‐Protein Meat Analogues: Integrating Nutrition, Functionality, and Fibrillation‐Based Texturization

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant proteins provide nutritional value and techno‐functional performance, yet their predominantly globular structures often form isotropic gels that lack the fibrous, anisotropic, and water‐retaining network of animal muscle. This review examines plant‐protein meat analogue design as a multi‐objective challenge requiring the simultaneous ...

Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 2166-2188, July 2026.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

Metabolic process of raffinose family oligosaccharides during cold stress and recovery in cucumber leaves [PDF]

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2018
Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) accumulate under stress conditions in many plants and have been suggested to act as stress protectants. To elucidate the metabolic process of RFOs under cold stress, levels of RFOs, and related carbohydrates, the expression and activities of main metabolic enzymes and their subcellular compartments were ...
