Stage‐Specific Metabolic and Proteomic Dynamics Underlying Ripening and Quality Formation in Tropical Evergreen Pomegranate

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Integrated multi‐omics reveals that pomegranate ripening between 90 and 130 days drives optimal sugar‐acid balance and pigmentation via coordinated regulation of phenylpropanoid, flavonoid, and carbohydrate metabolism pathways. ABSTRACT Pomegranate fruit development involves coordinated physiological, metabolic, and proteomic changes shaping coloration

Bioaccessibility of Phytochemicals, Amino Acids, Antioxidant Capacity, and Enzyme Inhibitory Activities of Hawthorn (Crataegus spp.) Fruits Following INFOGEST Simulated Gastrointestinal Digestion

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Comprehensive compositional and functional characterization of three Crataegus species demonstrated that simulated gastrointestinal digestion substantially altered the bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds and associated biological activities. The pronounced interspecific variation observed highlights the importance of species selection for the ...

Harvest Stage‐Dependent Variation in Essential Oil Chemotype and Agronomic Yield of Parsley (Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss)

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) was harvested at four ontogenetic stages (Pet‐1 to Pet‐4; May–September) under Mediterranean field conditions. Harvest timing significantly affected both agronomic yield and essential oil (EO) composition. Biomass yield peaked at Pet‐4 (10,076 kg da−1); EO content was highest at Pet‐2 (0.70%). GC–MS identified 55 volatile

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2747-2767, August 2026.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

Twists and turns: a tale of two shikimate-pathway enzymes

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2003
We are studying two enzymes from the shikimate pathway, dehydroquinate synthase (DHQS) and 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). Both enzymes have been the subject of numerous studies to elucidate their reaction mechanisms. Crystal structures of DHQS and EPSPS in the presence and absence of substrates, cofactors and/or inhibitors are now

Climate change and crop resilience: harnessing metabolomics for predicting stress tolerance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 975-995, August 2026.
Summarised methodology for metabolite biomarker discovery and genomic targets selection for those metabolites to predict high‐throughput phenotypic and agronomic traits of interest for direct uptake in breeding programmes. Summary Global warming is driving climate change to levels not experienced since the advent of agriculture, primarily due to ...

The Shikimate Pathway: Early Steps in the Biosynthesis of Aromatic Compounds. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1995
The shikimate pathway was discovered as the biosynthetic route to the aromatic amino acids phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan through the classic studies of Bernhard Davis and David Sprinson and their collaborators. This pathway has been found only in microorganisms and plants. Phenylalanine and tryptophan are essential components of animal diets,

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5210-5227, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.
