Potato leafroll virus: A re‐emerging threat to sustainable potato production

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) is a positive‐strand RNA virus. Virus particles of PLRV are isometric, 24 nm in diameter. PLRV is the causal agent of leafroll disease in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) which causes significant losses in yield and quality of potato tubers.

The Solanaceae: foods and poisons

open access: yesJournal of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, 2006
The plant family Solanaceae contains important foodstuffs such as the potato, tomato and aubergine, together with powerful poisons including mandrake, henbane and deadly nightshade. In the first article in this short series on the family, the history and importance of the potato are described. It was first cultivated by the Inca people in the altiplano

Is There Life After Death? The Role of Standing Dead Phorophytes in Supporting Tropical Epiphyte Diversity

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...

BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE Genes Enable Genetic Bottleneck Mitigation Through Cross‐Species Repurposing of Floral Persistence Traits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study shows that BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE (BOP) proteins regulate floral abscission and senescence in tomato by interacting with TFAM1 to form transcriptional condensates controlling the ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA HOMEOBOX GENE 1 (ATH1)‐mediated abscission pathway.

Pierceable, Water‐Resistant, and Transparent Nanofilm Electrodes Comprising Carbon Nanotubes for Long‐Term Monitoring of Plant Electrophysiology

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
Ultra‐flexible electrodes composed of single‐walled carbon nanotubes on a polymeric substrate exhibit excellent transparency, water resistance, and conformability to hairy surfaces. These non‐invasive nanofilms are easily pierced by trichomes, overcoming the structural barriers in plant electrophysiology.

Evaluation of Withaferin A Content in Withania somnifera Using NMR and HPLC: A Comparative Assessment of Traditional and PCSL Extraction Methods

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 6, June 2026.
A comparative evaluation of traditional aqueous extractions and innovative pressurised cyclic solid–liquid extraction is presented for Withania somnifera leaves. Quantitative NMR, validated by HPLC, reveals a markedly enhanced preservation and recovery of withaferin A using PCSL.

Wild Seasons, Urban Stasis: Anthropogenic Food Subsidies Buffer Seasonal Dietary Shifts for Coyotes (Canis latrans) in a Wildland‐Urban Landscape South of Mexico City

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Coyote populations are expanding into urban areas, and this study examines how their diet adapts along a gradient from conserved to human‐modified habitats. Mammals dominated the diet at both sites, and there was no significant difference in annual dietary diversity between the conserved and modified areas.
