Climate extremes threaten the sustainability of cranberry production, a culturally and economically important North American crop. This study demonstrates that wild cranberries (Vaccinium oxycoccos) harbor genetic variation that may enhance cold stress resilience when introduced into cultivated cranberry through hybridization.

Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Many plant species worldwide are struggling to regenerate due to the ongoing effects of climate change. These effects appear to be further exacerbated by the loss of keystone megafauna, which were important seed dispersers. By identifying the traits commonly seen in seeds spread by modern elephants, it is possible to predict which species likely ...

Traditional fermented foods worldwide depend on naturally occurring microbes, yet the environmental sources shaping these microbes and their effects on food quality remain poorly understood. We investigated bacteria living inside the roots of wild plants used to produce Munkoyo, a widely consumed nonalcoholic fermented cereal beverage in Zambia, to ...

Thirty years of glyphosate‐resistant crops and weeds: Current situation and future prospects
Since 1996, when the first glyphosate‐resistant crop was commercialized and the first resistant weed was reported, resistance has expanded globally. This review analyzes emergence patterns across weed species, crops, regions, resistance mechanisms, and herbicides.

Abstract Microplastics are widely distributed in aquatic environment and serve as habitats for microbial communities, which pause threats to the ecosystem. In this study, the seasonal variations in microplastic abundance and biogeography of their associated plastisphere were studied from 14 sites along the Wuhan Reaches of Yangtze River across spring ...

Abstract Freshwater Peridinium willei (Peridiniaceae) is globally distributed, but reports linking its morphologies with DNA sequence data remain scarce. The taxonomy of the species, and its infraspecific taxa, remain ambiguous due to the lack of DNA sequence data for the original and type material.

Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...
