Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.Small versus large scale soybean production systems' footprints. ABSTRACT Soybean is increasingly grown in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), produced mainly in small‐scale systems and supplied locally for human consumption. Prospects of large‐scale expansion and intensification, with potential environmental drawbacks, loom and call for a ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.Abstract Genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) typically require large populations to achieve sufficient statistical power; however, maintaining large populations is labor‐intensive and costly. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of improving GWAS detection power by strategically integrating small maize (Zea mays L.) subpopulations for kernel‐

Past, present and future of local crop evolution
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1989-2004, November 2026.Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 317-355, November 2026.ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.
