Article Synopsis
- Rhynchosia minima plants from the Indian Institute of Pulses Research exhibited yellow mosaic symptoms, suspected to be caused by begomoviruses, primarily identified as mungbean yellow mosaic India virus in four samples tested via PCR.
- One plant sample (Rhm2) tested negative for this virus but later analyses revealed it contained two DNA molecules associated with the rhynchosia yellow mosaic virus (RhYMV), which were closely related to known isolates with significant nucleotide similarities.
- Phylogenetic analysis indicated RhYMV-IN-Knp's lineage and highlighted two recombination events, suggesting a risk of infection to cultivated legumes, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring, particularly in pigeonpea
Chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are a family of small, soluble proteins that play a crucial role in transporting odorant and pheromone molecules in the insect chemosensory system. Recent studies reveal that they also function in development, nutrient metabolism and insecticide resistance. In-depth and systematic characterization of previously unknown CSPs will be valuable to investigate more detailed functionalities of this protein family.

Here we report insights into detrimental effects of plant glucosinolate molecule, sinigrin, on Helicoverpa armigera growth and development. In-silico screening of multiple glucosinolates predicted sinigrin as one of the potential inhibitor of H.
