Genetic control underlying dynamics of blueberry bioactive compounds during postharvest can drive breeding for functional fruits

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) are widely recognized as a superfruit due to their high content health‐promoting bioactive compounds, including flavonoids and phenolic acids. While these metabolites provide significant health benefits, their postharvest stability and implications for shelf life are not well characterized, a fact that is essential

TaUGT6, a Novel UDP-Glycosyltransferase Gene Enhances the Resistance to FHB and DON Accumulation in Wheat

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Fusarium head blight (FHB), a devastating wheat disease, results in loss of yield and production of mycotoxins including deoxynivalenol (DON) in infected grains. DON is harmful to human and animal health and facilitates the spread of FHB symptoms.

Genome assembly of Elcysma westwoodi provides insights into host‐plant cyanogenic glucoside detoxification and chemical defence gene evolution

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 653-668, December 2026.
A chromosome‐level genome of Elcysma westwoodi was assembled. The genome encodes 272 detoxification‐related genes. A single‐copy bCAS was retained for cyanide detoxification. CYP405A and CYP332A were recruited into cyanogenic defence evolution. UGT33A retained a conserved GT‐B fold and catalytic domains.

SbWRKY62 Coordinates With SbERF096 to Activate Pterostilbene Biosynthesis and Targets a Xylanase Inhibitor Protein for Anthracnose Resistance in Sorghum

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 9524-9539, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Sorghum anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum sublineola (C. sublineola) is a destructive disease leading to severe crop damages. Pterostilbene is a phytoalexin that contributes to defence responses in sorghum, but the transcriptional regulation of its biosynthesis remained poorly understood.

Almost 200 years of anthocyanin research: What we know, what we assume and what remains unknown

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 2149-2158, December 2026.
Nearly 200 years of anthocyanin research reveal a well‐understood anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway. However, there are still open questions regarding its evolution, functions and ecological significance. Abstract Flavonoids are frequently presented as health‐beneficial plant metabolites, and their subclass anthocyanins is best known for striking flower

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2217-2234, November 2026.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Comparative genomic and biochemical analyses identify a collagen galactosylhydroxylysyl glucosyltransferase from Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus

Scientific Reports, 2022
Humans and Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus share numerous homologous genes, including collagens and collagen-modifying enzymes. To explore this homology, we performed a genome-wide comparison between human and mimivirus using DELTA-BLAST (Domain ...
