Article Abstract
Problems with pesticide residues in medicinal and edible plant have received great attention. The dietary exposure risk induced by presence of pesticide residues depends on its release from the food matrix, i.e., its bioaccessibility. The bioaccessibility of pesticide residues in human food is poorly understood and thus, we used in vitro digestive method to measure the bioaccessibility of six pesticides in Chaenomelis speciosa. Results showed that the lower and upper boundary bioaccessibility values of the six pesticides in C. speciosa was 4.26 and 86.52%, and the bioaccessibility varied for the pesticide types and digestion phase. The α-amylase and pancreatin play an important role in vitro bioaccessibility. Our findings suggest that risk assessment studies should be taken into account the pesticide metabolism, and that previous studies may have underestimated pesticide bioaccessibility.

Introduction: The procedural complexity and time-consuming of conventional pesticide residue detection methods in traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) significantly impeded their application in modern systems. To address this, this study presented an innovative dual-mode sensor driven by Cu/Cu redox-cycling, which achieved efficient signal transduction from enzyme inhibition to optical response for rapid acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and organophosphorus pesticide (OP) residue detection.
Methods: The AB-Cu NPs sensor, a dynamic redox-responsive system, was constructed via coordination-driven assembly of Azo-Bodipy 685 (AB 685) and Cu.

The olfactory system of insects plays a vital role in their survival by enabling them to detect chemical cues and adapt to changing environments. The rape stem weevil, Ceutorhynchus asper, is a significant pest posing a challenge for rapeseed production due to its destructive feeding habit and increasing resistance to insecticides. So far, there's still limited knowledge about structure and function of odorant binding proteins (OBPs) in beetles like C.

The cerambycid beetles are important components in the terrestrial ecosystem as they play a dual role in both degrading dying trees and killing healthy plants. The factors including human activity, habitat contraction, climate changes and pesticide use have been shaping the adaptation of beetles to host plants and the environment. As suggested in research on the functions of beetles' olfactory proteins, odorant binding proteins (OBPs) have been found to be involved in insecticide resistance other than chemoreception.

Potato virus Y (PVY) is one of the most economically detrimental phytoviruses affecting global Solanaceae, possessing challenges in agrochemical control. The structural elucidation of PVY coat protein (CP) offers opportunities for the rational design of CP-targeted antivirals; however, the feasibility of identifying lead compounds via virtual screening remains largely unexplored. Herein, we report the successful case of structure-based virtual screening leveraging PVY CP, enabling the identification of a structurally novel lead with a unique mechanism of action.

Entomopathogenic fungi such as Metarhizium acridum are pivotal for sustainable pest management, yet the industrial conidial production is hindered by low yields and environmental sensitivity. Transcriptional regulation provides key targets for engineering strain modification. AP-1 transcription factors (TFs) are well-known for their roles in fungal growth, development, conidiation, pathogenicity and stress tolerance across various fungi.
