Microbial Oxidative Stress in Food Fermentations: A Comprehensive Review

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Oxidative stress has a dual role in food fermentations: low ROS supports adaptive signaling, whereas excessive ROS causes cellular damage and process inhibition. Managing redox state as a controllable process variable can improve fermentation robustness and final food quality.

Integrated Evaluation of the Multifunctional Bioactivity of Curcuma zedoaria (Christm.) Roscoe Essential Oil: Antimicrobial, Insecticidal, and Postharvest Effects on Fresh Ginger

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Multifunctional bioactivity of Curcuma zedoaria essential oil. ABSTRACT Plant‐derived essential oils are increasingly investigated as sustainable alternatives for food preservation and crop protection; however, their multifunctional applicability under postharvest conditions remains insufficiently explored.

Distribution and Occurrence of Cercospora Leaf Spot of Mungbean (Vigna radiata) and Associated Agronomic Factors in Ethiopia

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mungbean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) is a major cash‐generating pulse crop in Ethiopia's lowlands, serving as a key source of plant‐based protein and contributing to soil fertility. However, its production is severely constrained by Cercospora Leaf Spot (CLS), a destructive fungal disease.

Leaf penetration by endophytic Metarhizium brunneum enables infection of Phthorimaea absoluta in tomato mines while inducing the crop defense system

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7794-7808, August 2026.
Spraying Metarhizium brunneum on tomato plants controls heterogeneous and upcoming Phthorimaea absoluta populations by infecting larvae within mines and priming plant induced systemic defences. Abstract BACKGROUND The endophytic entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum Petch EAMa 01/58‐Su shows strong potential for managing Phthorimaea absoluta, a ...

Comparative Valorization of Diverse Food Waste Streams Into Functional ZnO Nanoparticles for Postharvest Pathogen Control

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 31, 17 August 2026.
Due to varying amounts of phytochemical constituents, diverse food waste have shown to differentially mediate the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles with unique physicochemical properties and antimicrobial performance. In this study, raspberry pomace (RP) amongst other waste produces well‐dispersed nanoparticles with superior overall activity against food ...

Soil Microbiomes Across Depth and Ecosystems in Dubai, UAE: Potential Environmental Signatures for Forensic Geolocation

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Soil microbiomes from diverse Dubai environments were profiled using a high‐throughput sequencing approach. Distinct microbial signatures were identified across sites, enabling comparative taxonomic and diversity analyses. These microbial fingerprints demonstrate potential for forensic geolocation, supporting the use of soil microbiome profiling as a ...

Temporal Dynamics of Sporulation of Lecanosticta acicola in Detached Pinus taeda Needles

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The timber industry in the southeastern United States relies heavily on Pinus taeda. Over the past decade, impacts from Lecanosticta acicola causing Brown Spot Needle Blight have been increasing on P. taeda. Disease spread is well documented for living needles, with conidia spreading locally and ascospores spreading long distances.
