Suppression of soil microbiota rather than neighbours facilitates absinthe Artemisia absinthium invasion in native grasslands

Oikos, EarlyView.
Many mechanisms can lead to successful plant invasion, but their importance is often context dependent. One such mechanism is allelopathy: chemical inhibition of neighbouring plants. The importance of allelopathy may be mediated by soil microbiota and environmental conditions, and depend upon the species or functional group affected.

Soil amendment effects on field‐saturated and unsaturated hydraulic properties of sodic soils

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Soil sodicity degrades soil structure and restricts water movement by promoting clay swelling, dispersion, and surface sealing, thereby reducing infiltration and hydraulic conductivity. This study aims to evaluate the effects of four soil amendments (elemental sulfur, gypsum, compost, and humate) on the hydraulic conductivity of sodic soils ...

Validation of a portable near‐infrared reflectance spectrometer to determine harvest maturity in grass seed crops

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Seed moisture content (SMC) is the most reliable indicator of seed maturity and the optimal harvest timing in grass seed crops. Current SMC testing methodologies used in grass seed crops are slow or inaccurate, making it difficult to make timely harvest decisions.

The influence of a cluster‐rooted species on Bossiaea linophylla (Fabaceae) under extremely phosphorus‐impoverished conditions: Phosphorus competition and altered plant–microbe interactions

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1709-1724, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) limitation may intensify plant competition. However, in severely P‐impoverished soils of south‐western Australia, cluster‐rooted Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae) can facilitate P acquisition of neighbouring species by mobilising tightly bound P from soil ...

Plant growth regulator and spring nitrogen effects on grass seed crops in western Canada

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used in herbage seed crops to mitigate lodging risk and protect seed yield, though their effects on aging perennial grass stands remain understudied. This study evaluated the effect of PGRs on the agronomic characteristics of herbage seed crops of creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra L.), meadow brome (Bromus ...
