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 ...

Integrated Metabolomics and Selection Signal Analysis Provide Insights Into the Selection for Flavonol Biosynthesis Associated With Lettuce Quality Improvement

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lettuce is a critical leafy vegetable consumed worldwide and is a substantial dietary source of health‐promoting compounds. Exploring changes in metabolism during lettuce domestication under artificial selection conditions is important to facilitate further breeding and cultivation for quality improvement.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Stability studies of cynaropicrin–major sesquiterpene lactone of Cynara cardunculus leaves

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8820-8830, September 2026.
This study investigated its stability under high temperature and pH, mimicking agronomic extremes and under soil context. Bioassays demonstrated that degradation products exhibited higher phytotoxic activity than cynaropicrin and deacylcynaropicrin. This is the first study about cynaropicrin's stability, characterizing degradation products, and their ...

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Contact Sensitisation Trends in Slovenian Children and Adolescents: A Retrospective Single‐Centre Study

Contact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 301-308, September 2026.
Nickel sensitisation in children decreased significantly over time, while dyes and isothiazolinones are emerging allergens. These findings underscore shifting exposure patterns and the need for continuous surveillance to guide effective patch testing and prevention strategies.
