Toward Sustainable Pesticide Application: Bridging Efficacy and Food Safety

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
A fully bio‐based lignin coacervate system is developed for pesticide delivery, enhancing leaf retention, UV resistance, adhesion, and wetting. The formulation enables pH/laccase‐triggered release for prolonged action, reduces ecological toxicity, and is fully washable, reconciling agricultural efficacy with food and environmental safety.

Vigorous propagation material and organic breeding in the Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Organic cultivation depends on robust and healthy propagation material and the availability of suitable plant varieties. To be able to facilitate organic farmers and growers, Wageningen UR and the Louis Bolk Institute carry out a variety of research ...

Toward an art of genomic selection in vegetable breeding

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful strategy for accelerating genetic gain in plant breeding. While in recent years GS has been widely adopted in breeding programs for agronomic crops, its implementation in vegetable breeding has been comparatively limited.

Bee on Boron—Sufficient Boron Supply of Brassica napus Is Crucial for Attracting Pollinating Insects to Ensure Seed Yield

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The study demonstrates that sufficient B supply is crucial for successful rapeseed flower growth and fertility as well as for attracting pollinating insects, thus securing yield in a pollinator‐dependent crop. It is illustrated that climate change can pose a threat to crop yield via both direct effects, that is, an impaired nutrient uptake, and ...

Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 1, Page 87-101, January 2026.
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Allelopathic effect of aqueous extracts of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and of Casearia sylvestris Sw. on crops
Efeito alelopático de extratos aquosos de Eucalyptus globulus Labill. e de Casearia sylvestris Sw. sobre espécies cultivadas

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2011
Allelopathy is characterized by the harmful or benefic effects caused by secondary metabolites, that are produced by plants, microorganisms or fungi and are released in the environment, on the development of natural biological systems or implemented ones.

RNA tomography reveals spatial gene expression maps of Arabidopsis thaliana roots infected with Heterodera schachtii

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 588-602, January 2026.
Summary Plant‐parasitic cyst nematodes, such as Heterodera schachtii, cause substantial crop losses world‐wide and induce specialized feeding structures in host roots, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying feeding structure initiation and development remain poorly understood.

Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of glucosinolates in cruciferous plants during their life cycles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Glucosinolates produced by Brassica species were investigated in relation to biofumigation, a term used to describe the effects some allelochemicals, including glucosinolate derived products, may have on soil-borne pathogens or other herbivores.
