High metabolic sensitivity to hot drought in two declining pine species with constrained physiology

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 239-255, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decline syndromes preceding tree mortality under increased abiotic stress often include reductions in transpiring leaf area and tree growth. However, the mechanisms regulating the metabolism and physiology of declining trees before they cross irreversible thresholds in ...

Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.
