Florpyrauxifen‐Benzyl Controls Cirsium arvense by Inhibiting Root Growth and Decreasing Root Bud Regeneration

open access: yesWeed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cirsium arvense L. (Canada thistle) is a perennial weed with an extensive root system and prolific vegetative propagation through adventitious root buds, making long‐term management challenging. Florpyrauxifen‐benzyl, a novel synthetic auxin herbicide, has shown potential for controlling broadleaf weeds, but its effects on C.

Stress related epigenetic changes may explain opportunistic success in biological invasions in Antipode mussels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Different environmental factors could induce epigenetic changes, which are likely involved in the biological invasion process. Some of these factors are driven by humans as, for example, the pollution and deliberate or accidental introductions and others

Field Survey of Freshwater Invertebrates Reveals That Several Groups Are Potential Carriers of the Fungal Pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The amphibian disease chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has devastated global amphibian biodiversity. The specific reasons for its rapid global spread, especially to pristine areas, are not well understood. Freshwater invertebrates might function as carriers of Bd, but the diversity and extent

Nonthermal Plasma Regeneration of Coke‐Deactivated Catalysts Used for Plasma‐Catalytic VOC Removal

open access: yesPlasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2026.
The research focused on the regeneration of coke‐deactivated catalysts previously used for plasma‐catalytic toluene removal from the air. Three regeneration techniques (plasma, ozone and thermal) were compared. The plasma regeneration showed the highest efficiency in removing the coke deposits, whereas the effect of ozone and heat was negligible ...

Modeling Upper Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics in Response to Interannual Sea‐Ice Variability in the Western Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract In the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), marine plankton dynamics are tightly linked to the interannual variability in environmental conditions, including phenological shifts in sea‐ice seasonality. To explore these linkages, we use a 1‐dimensional vertical ocean‐ice‐ecosystem model (KPP‐Eco‐Ice, or KEI) that simulates physical and ecosystem ...

Efficacy of pH elevation as a bactericidal strategy for treating ballast water of freight carriers

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2015
Treatment of ship ballast water with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is one method currently being developed to minimize the risk to introduce aquatic invasive species. The bactericidal capability of sodium hydroxide was determined for 148 bacterial strains from
