Reconfiguring biofortification strategies to transform food systems and address micronutrient deficiency of the 21st century

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2511-2547, August 2026.
This review explores how to make staple foods and horticultural crops more nutritious, including how artificial intelligence‐based screening of gene banks helps deploy nutritionally rich germplasm into breeding. Genome editing can help develop crops richer in minerals, vitamins, and health‐promoting compounds, supporting healthier diets and more ...

Preservative Ethanol From Stomach Contents Is a Reliable Proxy for Diet DNA Metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
We tested whether DNA metabarcoding of preservative ethanol can substitute bulk stomach contents for reconstructing diets. Using two ethanol DNA extraction methods (precipitation and drying), the resulting profiles showed minor differences relative to each other and to bulk contents in richness, composition, and read counts, mostly limited to low ...

Host preferences of non‐native Acalolepta aesthetica (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) on the Island of Hawaiʻi

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 149-159, May 2026.
Acalolepta aesthetica is a non‐native cerambycid established on the Island of Hawaiʻi. We show its preferred hosts are woody species that are highly valued for agricultural, horticultural and cultural uses. We used a resource selection function to estimate host preferences and found that kukui (Aleurites moluccanus), the state tree, was preferred ...

Zooarchaeological Analysis of an Atoll Assemblage From Central Micronesia

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 177-198, April 2026.
ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.

Using multilayer socioecological networks to assess ecosystem service flow in a subsistence farming community in Papua New Guinea

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 854-870, April 2026.
Abstract Ecosystem services are rapidly degrading under anthropogenic pressure. Therefore, it is increasingly important to understand how ecosystem services flow, particularly at local scales, where people directly rely on nature for their livelihoods and well‐being. Many ecosystem services are underpinned by ecological (e.g.

Optical Diversity and Nanostructural Organization in the Colored Scales of Sternotomis

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 12, 25 March 2026.
Vivid colors in Sternotomis beetles originate from nanoscale photonic architectures embedded within individual scales. Here, we provide a comparative optical and structural analysis of 57 scale types that reveal how ordered, quasi‐ordered, and disordered 3D networks tune color, saturation, and angular response.

Remain thou as thou art: The bargain of vegetabling

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Vegetabling resulted in the development of a unique food source comprised of highly immature plant organs that delivers desirable textures, flavors, and nutritional diversity to human diets. In contrast to some dry‐seeded crops, perishable vegetables require enormous inputs of energy and technology during the postharvest period to preserve ...

Preliminary investigation on pasting properties, solvent retention capacity and antioxidant properties of mature green breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis, Moraceae) flour modified using plant food waste Hibiscus sabdariffa bioactive components

Food Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 184-196, March 2026.
Abstract Effects of bioactive components of white variety of Hibiscus sabdariffa (WHS) at 4 regimen and 2 regimen samples without WHS as reference carried out at room temperature for 14 days, with periodical stirring on pasting, antioxidant and solvent retention capacity properties of mature green breadfruit flour were studied.
