Tomato plants control leaf sodium levels to limit damage by Spodoptera littoralis larvae
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3417-3427, June 2026.Summary Sodium is an essential element for animal growth and survival. Here we test the hypothesis that plants exposed to insect feeding can translocate sodium from the feeding site to other plant organs as a defense strategy against phytophagous insects, which need sodium in their diet.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.Emerging evidence suggests that intraneuronal Aβ accumulation represents an early pathogenic event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Using Drosophila AD model, this study shows that a nonsecreted serine protease Yip7 physically interacts with Aβ. This causes intraneuronal Aβ accumulation but surprisingly reduces the associated neurotoxicity, arguing that ...

Harnessing allelic variation to improve the protein content and amino acid profiles of food legumes
Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract The growing demand for safe and nutritious foods places unprecedented demands on agriculture. Widespread malnutrition in the Global South could be minimized by including legumes in predominantly cereal‐based cropping systems. Regular legume consumption provides multiple health benefits to humans, positively impacts soil health and microbiome ...
