Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant growth and reduce chemical inputs. Biostimulant use is rapidly increasing globally, but hurdles remain,

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
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).

Sustainable treatment of banana leaves for phytosanitary applications: impact, spreading, and impregnation of mineral oil

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Mineral oil droplets spread anisotropically, penetrate banana leaf tissues, and diffuse into the palisade parenchyma, revealing a delayed, Fickian mechanism that supports improved phytosanitary spray strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Efficient application of phytosanitary sprays is essential for sustainable control of foliar fungal diseases such as Black

Residue dynamics and dietary risks of diflufenican and flufenacet in wheat using field experiments and model simulations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Combining field trials with model simulations allows for an effective and efficient evaluation of residues of herbicides diflufenican and flufenacet in wheat and related dietary risks for humans. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide usage and related food safety and human health concerns have received great attention worldwide.

Thirty years of glyphosate‐resistant crops and weeds: Current situation and future prospects

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Since 1996, when the first glyphosate‐resistant crop was commercialized and the first resistant weed was reported, resistance has expanded globally. This review analyzes emergence patterns across weed species, crops, regions, resistance mechanisms, and herbicides.
