Assessment of Insect and Mite Pests and Their Natural Enemies in Sweet Orange (Citrus sinensis L.) Rutaceae Cultivations in Eastern Ethiopia

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Severe infestations of insect and mite pests constrain sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L.) Rutaceae, production in eastern Ethiopia. Little information exists in eastern Ethiopia regarding the insect and mite pests and their natural enemies. This study was conducted to assess the occurrence of pests and their natural enemies in the sweet orange.

Non‐coding RNAs in plant stress responses: molecular insights and agricultural applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 8, Page 3195-3233, August 2025.
Summary Non‐coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in plant responses to environmental stress, orchestrating complex networks that finetune gene expression under both abiotic and biotic challenges. To elucidate this intricate ncRNA crosstalk, this review comprehensively summarizes recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of key ...

Emerging Trends and Application of Edible Coating as a Sustainable Solution for Postharvest Management in Stone Fruits: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 3, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Stone fruits, also known as drupes, include apricots, peaches, plums, cherries, and nectarines that have high global demand due to their nutritional benefits and palatable characteristics. Being soft fruits, they are susceptible to various postharvest issues, reducing their shelf life, with postharvest loss reaching 15%–50%.
