JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 236-247, June 2026.Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT The growing demand for food, energy, and water in resource‐constrained regions intensifies land‐use conflicts, where solar photovoltaic (PV) expansion often competes with agriculture. Agrivoltaics, the co‐location of crop cultivation beneath PV systems, offers a potential dual‐use solution to enhance land efficiency. This study presents one of

Climate‐Driven Food Loss: The Case of Postharvest Tomato Losses in Southern Tanzania
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Increased weather challenges propelled by climate change are projected to significantly impact postharvest operations, threatening the livelihoods of most small‐scale farmers in several parts of Africa. While research on the effects of climate variability on food production exists, less attention has been given to the impacts of climate change

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.Native Regiella insecticola in Myzus persicae provides strong protection against parasitoid wasps but imposes only modest reproductive costs and does not affect virus transmission. Despite stable vertical and horizontal transmission, these effects alone do not explain the low natural prevalence of **Regiella** in field populations.
