Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 429-444, August 2026.ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd2+) contamination in agricultural soils has been reported to pose risks to crop productivity, food safety, and human health. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms by which essential (S, Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca) and beneficial (Si, Se, rare earth elements) elements mitigate Cd2+ toxicity in plants.

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT In the current era, climate change has emerged as a fundamental threat to African agriculture, driven by increasingly erratic climatic patterns such as prolonged rainfall, decadal droughts, and escalating thermal stress. This review evaluates contemporary agricultural productivity by gathering and analyzing empirical data from academic ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.Soil biodiversity may help reduce dependence on nitrogen fertilization, but experimental evidence remains limited. We tested how microbiome predator diversity (protists and nematodes) and nitrogen addition influence Cannabis sativa performance. Increasing microbiome predator diversity enhanced plant biomass by up to 60%, exceeding the effects of ...

Natural biostimulants reduce the incidence of BER in sweet yellow pepper plants (Capsicum annuum L.)
Agricultural and Food Science, 2013 Modern greenhouse pepper production should evolve towards more sustainable systems. The growing technique which combines soilless culture and biostimulants may reduce nutrient and water use with beneficial impact on the environment.

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5563-5579, August 2026.ABSTRACT Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) has a high phosphorus (P) requirement, yet its shallow root system and the strong P‐fixing capacity of many soils limit the effectiveness of soil fertilisation. Foliar application of nano‐hydroxyapatite particles (nHAPs) has emerged as a promising alternative P fertilisation practice.

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 6, August 2026.Abstract Introduction Invasive annual grasses (IAGs) pose a significant threat to sagebrush rangelands, but restoring native perennial species using seed is challenging because pre‐emergent herbicides, used to control IAGs, also harm desired seedlings. This necessitates seeding after herbicide effects diminish. Objective This collection of three papers
