The effect of light supplementation on the changes in outer and inner fruit quality of different Selenicereus spp. cultivars

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 14, Page 8503-8514, November 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenicereus spp., belonging to the Cactaceae family, produces pitaya, a fruit recognized for its exotic appearance and rich phytochemical composition. In regions with shorter photoperiods, flowering and fruit development are limited, making light supplementation a promising strategy.

Autonomous self‐pollination provides reproductive assurance, whereas insect pollination enhances yield in sesame under tropical field conditions

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 3, November 2026.
This study demonstrates that Sesamum indicum L. combines autonomous self‐pollination and insect‐mediated pollination under tropical field conditions. Autonomous self‐pollination provides reproductive assurance, whereas insect pollination increases grain yield by 28.6%, corresponding to a pollinator dependence of 22%.

Colony‐level pollen collection reflects visitation of managed bumble bees (Bombus impatiens) in strawberry fields and surrounding landscapes without reducing pollen limitation

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 636-647, November 2026.
We extracted pollen from colony beeswax to quantify season‐long, colony‐level resource use and tested how managed Bombus impatiens visitation and Rosaceae pollen collection relate to landscape context and strawberry pollination. Increased managed bumble bee visitation was not influenced by surrounding landcover, did not reduce pollen limitation and ...

Coupling Oxygen‐Enriched Drip Irrigation With an Optimized Nitrogen Rate Improves Yield, Water Productivity and Grain Quality of Winter Wheat: A Two‐Season Field Study

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Drip irrigation displaces soil air at the emitter and transiently depresses dissolved oxygen (DO) in the wetted root zone, and recovery is slow in fine‐textured, slightly saline soils. Whether aeration of the irrigation stream can be combined with nitrogen (N) management to raise water productivity while safeguarding grain quality in winter ...

The MexMAGIC population reveals the genetic architecture of traits exhibiting clinal variation in Mexican native maize

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 3, Page 1296-1313, November 2026.
The MexMAGIC population mixes native maize varieties from across Mexico to study functional genetic diversity. Summary Defining the genetic basis of local adaptation is a key goal of evolutionary biology and crop improvement. Theory predicts that when selective pressures follow differences in the environment, a cline will be established.
