• Phytochemical analysis for postharvest disease control: A study explored the phytochemical characterization of forest leaves, including apple leaves, and their application in controlling apple postharvest diseases, highlighting the potential of apple leaf extract in plant-based disease management strategies (Hajji-Hedfi et al., 2024).

• Agrochemical interactions in apple cultivation: Research on the optimization of irrigation and fertilization strategies for apples in arid areas incorporated analysis of apple leaves to assess plant health and nutrient uptake, underscoring the role of natural plant extracts in sustainable agriculture (Duan et al., 2024).

• Screening for disease resistance in apple breeding: An efficient gene screening system from wild apple leaves in response to pathogenic fungi was developed, demonstrating the utility of apple leaf extracts in identifying and harnessing natural resistance traits in plant breeding (Wen et al., 2023).
