Reconfiguring biofortification strategies to transform food systems and address micronutrient deficiency of the 21st century

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2511-2547, August 2026.
This review explores how to make staple foods and horticultural crops more nutritious, including how artificial intelligence‐based screening of gene banks helps deploy nutritionally rich germplasm into breeding. Genome editing can help develop crops richer in minerals, vitamins, and health‐promoting compounds, supporting healthier diets and more ...

Toward an art of genomic selection in vegetable breeding

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful strategy for accelerating genetic gain in plant breeding. While in recent years GS has been widely adopted in breeding programs for agronomic crops, its implementation in vegetable breeding has been comparatively limited.

Lobeniza: The outcome of an agroecological adaptive pathway in a rural food system undergoing transformation

Urban Agriculture &Regional Food Systems, Volume 11, Issue 1, 2026.
Abstract Local food systems in southern Mexico are increasingly affected by water scarcity, climate variability, and peri‐urban change. Despite growing scholarship on adaptive strategies and agroecology, limited empirical evidence explains how long‐term organizational dynamics translate agroecological principles into sustained adaptation under changing
