Rhizobacteria regulate colonising Sitobion avenae aphid populations through induced host resistance and alter plant volatiles promoting early parasitoid recruitment on barley (Hordeum vulgare)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7050-7061, July 2026.
Rhizobacterial inoculation of barley reduced Sitobion avenae populations by inducing plant resistance and modifying volatiles that attracted parasitoid wasps earlier, enhancing both bottom‐up and top‐down pest control. Abstract BACKGROUND Soil rhizobacteria can enhance crop resistance to insect herbivores and influence higher trophic interactions ...

Insecticides alter wild and managed pollination dynamics on oil crop yield

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our results show that combining honey bee hives with insecticide use does not automatically enhance crop yield. Pollination outcomes are strongly scale‐ and context‐dependent, with wild pollinators providing disproportionately important services. Agricultural management should therefore prioritize integrated strategies that reduce pesticide pressure ...

Effects of Organic and Inorganic Fertilizers on Biomass Production and Nickel Yield in the Hyperaccumulator Bornmuellera emarginata Under Field Conditions

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of fertilization regime (organic vs. inorganic) on the growth performance, nickel accumulation, and total nickel yield of the nickel hyperaccumulator Bornmuellera emarginata, cultivated under realistic field conditions in its native ultramafic environment in Northern Greece over a 3‐year period ...

Local Adaptation and Edaphic Divergence Across Ultramafic and Non‐Ultramafic Soils: Insights From Artificially Controlled Experiments and Elemental Profiles

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
The study addresses early‐stage edaphic divergence between ultramafic and non‐ultramafic soils using Solidago virgaurea as a model species, and aims to advance our understanding of local adaptation to contrasting soil environments. By combining reciprocal transplant experiments under controlled conditions with elemental analyses of soils and plant ...

Enhanced Nickel Uptake in Mixed Plant Communities of Hyperaccumulator and Non‐Hyperaccumulator Species Under Nickel Stress

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study investigated how species richness and biotope space affect phytoextracted nickel mass. Growing monocultures and bicultures of two endemic species across a nickel stress gradient revealed that bicultures generally enhanced soil nickel bioavailability, aboveground biomass, and nickel phytoextraction compared to monocultures.

Seed‐Associated Trichoderma and Their Potential as Biocontrol Agents Against Plant Diseases

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Trichoderma is a genus of beneficial fungi widely used in agriculture. Over 2 years of routine seed health analyses, we investigated the diversity of seed‐borne Trichoderma strains associated with seeds from 32 cultivated plant species. We assessed their mycoparasitic activity and their potential for disease suppression and plant growth promotion ...
