Worldwide evaluations of quinoa: preliminary results from post International Year of Quinoa FAO projects in nine countries [PDF]
Chenopodium quinoa Willd, a high quality grain crop, is resistant to abiotic stresses (drought, cold, and salt) and offers an optimal source of protein. Quinoa represents a symbol of crop genetic diversity across the Andean region.

ABSTRACT By 2050, the global population is projected to reach ~10 billion, leading to 50% increase in food demand. This growth will place immense pressure on agricultural systems that are already struggling with the impacts of climate change and resource depletion.

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.

Reação de quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) a resíduos de herbicida em um solo de Cerrado [PDF]
O cultivo da quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), um dos mais promissores em sucessão à soja ou ao milho, depende do controle de plantas daninhas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar a reação da quinoa a resíduos de herbicidas num solo de cerrado.

ABSTRACT The aging population presents an increasing need for protein‐rich food that supports health, functionality, and quality of life in senior adults. Plant proteins, with their sustainability and nutritional potentials, are emerging as promising yet complex alternatives to animal proteins in this context.

Virus‐enabled reverse genetics (VERG) enables transient gene expression modulation in plants but its efficacy varies across species. We evaluated the efficacy of barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV) and foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) for virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) and virus‐mediated overexpression (VOX) in rice (Oryza sativa).

First notice of Therion from South America with description of two new species from Argentina and Bolivia (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) [PDF]
Therion Curtis (Ichneumonidae: Anomalinae) has a nearly cosmopolitan geographic distribution but has not previously been recorded from South America. In most Therion the tarsal claws are simple or have only a few inconspicuous teeth near the base.
