A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

NAD replenishment restores mitochondrial function and thermogenesis in the brown adipose tissue of mice with obesity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A high‐fat diet (HFD) induces brown adipose tissue (BAT) whitening, mitochondrial dysfunction (damaged cristae, fragmentation), reduced NAD+ levels and impaired thermogenesis, leading to lower energy expenditure and metabolic inflexibility.

Productivity, energy indices, and environmental impact of newly adapted ultrahigh‐density mango (Mangifera indica L.) orchards

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Increased farm productivity and income, along with increased energy use efficiency and a reduced carbon footprint, are deemed imperative for sustainable mango (Mangifera indica L.) production. In this study, we assessed the comparative benefits in terms of productivity, energy indices, carbon footprint, and farm income under ultrahigh‐density ...

In the Bag: Leaf Litter‐Filled Artificial Cover Objects Reveal Urban Habitat Associations for Predatory Invertebrates (Onychophora: Peripitoides novaezealandiae and Araneae: Uliodon spp.)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Velvet worms and vagrant spiders are two predatory invertebrate taxa that can occupy urban forests, but understanding their habitat associations in these environments has been hampered by a lack of effective monitoring methods. We assessed how forest age and type affected the numbers of velvet worms and vagrant spiders detected within leaf litter ...

Optimising the greenhouse cultivation of Lotus japonicus under dimmable LED

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.
Optimisation of growth conditions for Lotus japonicus ecotypes MG‐20 and Gifu in climate‐controlled greenhouses indicated that L. japonicus produced less flowers and pods under the fluctuating light of mobile LED (location = 5) than under stationary LED (location = 9) and the effect of the light source increased under low ambient light conditions in ...
