Field Trials and Baking Studies of Ultra‐Low Asparagine, Genome Edited (CRISPR/Cas9) and Mutant (TILLING) Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4704-4715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Field trials were conducted of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv. Cadenza in which asparagine synthetase gene, TaASN2, had been knocked out, either on its own or together with a partial knockout of the related gene, TaASN1, using CRISPR/Cas9. Chemical mutagenesis (TILLING) TaASN2 nulls in the Claire background were also included.

Counter-season cultivation of truffles in the Southern Hemisphere: an update

Italian Journal of Mycology, 2017
The cultivation of truffles in the Southern Hemisphere began in New Zealand in the mid-1980s and the first fruiting bodies of Tuber melanosporum were harvested in Gisborne in 1993.

Endophytic and ectomycorrhizal, an overlooked dual ecological niche? Insights from natural environments and Russula species

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3946-3960, June 2026.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are key components of temperate ecosystems, and recent studies suggest that they can also inhabit non‐EcM plant roots as endophytes. We aimed to (1) provide new evidence of EcMF colonization of non‐EcM hosts, (2) offer direct microscopic confirmation of such endophytism and (3) assess factors influencing ...

Is small mammal mycophagy relevant for truffle cultivation?

Acta Mycologica, 2013
The role of small mammal mycophagy as vectors of hypogeous fungi is well established. However, little is known about dispersal of gourmet truffle species by mammal vectors, or about the potential role of mycophagy in truffle plantations.

Fermented Foods and Beverages of Ethiopia: Substrates, Traditional Preparation Techniques, and Nutritional Quality

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Traditional Ethiopian fermented foods and beverages such as Injera, Kocho, and Tella provide important health benefits, including improved nutrient bioavailability, gut health, and digestibility. However, challenges such as lack of standardization, insufficient documentation, and economic constraints limit their wider development and commercialization.

Recent Advances in Biology, Epidemiology and Host Resistance to Potato Powdery Scab

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in understanding powdery scab and potato resistance, providing new perspectives for developing durable and integrated strategies to manage the disease. ABSTRACT Powdery scab of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) is caused by the soil‐borne protist Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss).

Comparison of the fragrance constituents of Tuber aestivum and Tuber brumale gathered in Hungary

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
Scent components from two species of Tuber truffles gleaned in Hungary were examined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry subsequent to Likens-Nickerson simultaneous distillation extraction. The analysis revealed several differences between them. In

Complex chemical evaluation of the summer truffle (Tuber aestivum Vittadini) fruit bodies

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2014
Summer truffle (Tuber aestivum Vittadini) is one of the most important mycorrhizal mushrooms with underground fruit bodies. Formerly the scientific investigations were focused mainly on its specific fragrant constituents.

Niche Segregation Between Black‐Necked Crane and Common Crane in Human‐Modified Landscape, Huize Black‐Necked Crane National Nature Reserve, Yunnan Province, Southwestern China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We investigated how Black‐necked Cranes and Common Cranes coexist in agro‐wetland landscapes of southwest China by reconstructing their plant‐based diets using eDNA metabarcoding. Black‐necked Cranes maintained broad, stable diets centered on natural vegetation, while Common Cranes shifted dynamically to energy‐dense crops, leading to progressive niche
