Hyperspectral imaging has a limited ability to remotely sense the onset of beech bark disease

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 656-669, December 2025.
Although hyperspectral imaging is a powerful remote sensing tool, it proved ineffective in predicting the progression of beech bark disease, except in its later stages, both at the canopy and leaf levels. While some alterations in chlorophyll, water content, and canopy structure may have influenced foliar reflectance at the canopy scale, as suggested ...

Resilience of Indigenous healthcare systems: Ethnobotanical approaches among the Baka, southeastern Cameroon

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2879-2894, November 2025.
Abstract Indigenous Peoples rely on biodiversity and traditional knowledge for health and well‐being, yet biological and cultural systems are threatened by ecological and social changes. Limited understanding exists on the factors that support the resilience of Indigenous Peoples' healthcare systems—the capacity of a healthcare system to adapt to ...

Ovule Clearing Method for Solanaceous Species

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2013
Depending on the species, embryo sacs can be difficult to observe. Ovule clearing allows precise observation of whole tissues under Differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy.

Rice developmental stages modulate rhizosphere bacteria and archaea co-occurrence and sensitivity to long-term inorganic fertilization in a West African Sahelian agro-ecosystem

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiome, 2023
Background Rhizosphere microbial communities are important components of the soil-plant continuum in paddy field ecosystems. These rhizosphere communities contribute to nutrient cycling and rice productivity.

The importance of tree allometry for local-scale variation in aboveground biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aboveground biomass (AGB) plays a critical role in determining the long-term dynamics of carbon in tropical forests. Consequently, understanding what factors are important in controlling AGB in tropical forests has major implications for projecting the ...

Associations between soil characteristics and ground‐nesting bees on farms Associations entre les caractéristiques du sol et les abeilles terricoles dans les exploitations agricoles

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1037-1052, November 2025.
We collected ground‐nesting bees at 35 farms over two summers and assessed their abundance, diversity, and community composition in relation to local soil characteristics (texture, compaction, slope, and ground cover). Ground‐nesting bee abundance and species richness increased with bare ground and sand content.

Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Inoculation of Sphaerosporella brunnea Significantly Increased Stem Biomass of Salix miyabeana and Decreased Lead, Tin, and Zinc, Soil Concentrations during the Phytoremediation of an Industrial Landfill

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Fast growing, high biomass willows (Salix sp.) have been extensively used for the phytoremediation of trace element-contaminated environments, as they have an extensive root system and they tolerate abiotic stressors such as drought and metal toxicity ...

French lag in scientific research on organic farming: a scientometric approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
France suffers from a large research deficit in most areas related to sustainable development and public health. The case of research on organic farming, within the framework of the broader sector of agronomic research, constitutes a largely under ...

Identification of QTLs for Physiological and Agro‐Morphological Traits Associated With Water‐Saving Capacity in Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench)

open access: yesPlant Breeding, Volume 144, Issue 5, Page 641-651, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Sorghum is a major cereal crop that plays an important role in food security for millions of people in arid and semi‐arid regions, but its production is threatened by drought. Therefore, understanding the genetic basis of transpiration rate during the early development stage is a key step towards improving sorghum production.
