Conservation status of species used in the UK herbal medicine industry

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Given the ongoing biodiversity crisis, sustainable use and management of medicinal plants is critical. We assessed the conservation status, threats and conservation actions of 298 species sold by UK suppliers to medical herbalists. We found that most species used are unevaluated, representing a gap in conservation knowledge, and of those with ...

Rootstock impacts on citrus flush dynamics, vegetative growth, and Diaphorina citri infestation and dispersion: Implications for huanglongbing management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Dwarfing citrus rootstocks restrict flush shoot growth on the scion, thereby reducing Asian citrus psyllid infestation, dispersal, and huanglongbing (HLB) progression. These findings support the use of dwarfing rootstocks as an effective cultural strategy in integrated HLB management for citrus orchards.

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Essential oils as bioherbicides: effects of orange and citronella oils on weed germination and early growth

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Essential oils from orange and citronella showed dose‐dependent inhibition of weed germination and early growth, highlighting their potential as bioherbicides and sustainable tools for integrated weed management. Abstract BACKGROUND Increasing selection of herbicide‐resistant weed biotypes has intensified the search for alternatives to the intensive ...

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.

Time‐series digital camera photos combined with machine learning algorithms can realize accurate observation of flowering phenology

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Intelligent approaches are required to extract valuable phenological information from time‐series digital camera photos. In this research, we employed YOLO‐based object detection and semantic segmentation models to identify flowers and flower pixels, acquire flower count and flower cover data, and extract phenophases such as first, peak, and end ...

Hepatic ferroptosis induced by Clonorchis sinensis exacerbates liver fibrosis.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis) is a food-borne zoonotic parasite link to liver fibrosis and cholangiocarcinoma. Limited understanding of its mechanisms in causing liver fibrosis has impeded therapeutic advances for C.
