Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 2, Page 1394-1406, 30 January 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Optimizing preplant nitrogen rate for early versus late biomass sorghum in the US Mid‐Atlantic

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Biomass sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an alternative biofuel feedstock to maize [Zea mays (L.)]. One advantage of biomass sorghum over maize is relatively lower nitrogen (N) requirement and its ability to tolerate late planting or fit into double cropping systems. To evaluate the most economic rate of N (MERN) for biomass sorghum in

Root rot suppression mechanisms in lentil promoted by organic intercropping

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Intercropping a grain legume with a grain nonlegume is of increased interest by producers in the Canadian Prairies, especially under organic production where intercropping is an alternative to the lack of economic returns of green manure or summer fallow.

Assessing alternative strategies to control almond red leaf blotch through the reduction of Polystigma amygdalinum inoculum in leaf litter

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 278-286, January 2026.
Cultural practices offer effective RLB disease management strategies. Urea application or removal of almond leaf litter reduces the primary inoculum of Polystigma amygdalinum. Abstract Background Red leaf blotch (RLB), caused by Polystigma amygdalinum, is a major foliar disease of almond trees in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions.

Recent Advances in Lemongrass Essential Oil: Food Safety, Preservation, and Bioactivity in Food Systems

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Lemongrass essential oil (LGEO) has gained recognition as a natural preservative in food systems due to its distinctive phytochemical composition and multifunctional bioactivities. Dominated by citral and complemented by terpenes and phenolic compounds, LGEO demonstrates potent antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antibiofilm, and antioxidant
