Differences in bioactive compounds between red cabbage grown as microgreens or to mature plants under organic conditions

There is increasing demand for healthy and organic foods, particularly for microgreens, which have strong flavour and aroma linked to their bioactive components. Microgreens are young vegetables that are harvested after the seeds have germinated but before the true leaves emerge....

Knockout of the soybean phosphatase gene GmLOPP confers pathogen resistance without compromising nodulation

Enhancing plant immunity often improves resistance to pathogens, yet its consequences for beneficial symbionts remain underexplored. Here, we assessed the effects of disrupting GmLOPP, a soybean type 2 C protein phosphatase, on both immune activation and rhizobial symbiosis. Loss...
