Building capacity in vector‐borne plant virus research: The CONNECTED Network

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant viruses spread by insects decimate crop yields globally, causing food security challenges in vulnerable areas, including regions of Africa. Interdisciplinary research is needed to protect future crop supplies. CONNECTED, the Community Network for African Vector‐Borne Plant Viruses, increased research capacity in Central, East, West and Southern ...

Controlling banana bunchy top disease in Benin: Crop protection strategies with socio‐economic perspectives

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Banana and plantain are vital for food security and income in West Africa, yet banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) threatens production. This study combined remote sensing, field surveys, modelling and socio‐economic analysis to assess BBTV spread and control strategies in Benin.

Protein Involved in Initiation 1 Interaction With Starch Synthase 4 From Arabidopsis thaliana Induces Inhibition of Elongating Activity

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Starch is the major energy storage compound in plants. It accumulates in the form of insoluble, partly crystalline granules whose number and shape are specific to each plant species. These characteristics are defined very early in starch biosynthesis, at the initiation stage.

Challenges facing the management of pesticide resistance in weeds, diseases and insect pests in European agriculture and the future of effective IPM implementation

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Opinion on pesticide resistance and management in the European Union (EU) and United Kingdom (UK) is presented cognisant of changes in regulation that impact on mode of action availability and cropping system choice. Abstract In recent times, pesticide resistance has been managed reasonably effectively, either proactively or reactively, by monitoring ...

On the Origins of Out‐of‐Plane Auxetic Response in Paper

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Paper can be auxetic! Paper can exhibit a range of out‐of‐plane Poisson's ratio (PR) values. Examining handsheets made from hardwood (HW) and softwood (SW) fibers, of a variety of weights (1, 3, or 5 g) and refining degrees (none, R, or R+), showed that the sign and magnitude of PR can be finely controlled by modifying network parameters.

A new organizational structure database: Examining structure through top management team compositions

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Studies using archival organizational structure data are not as prevalent as one might expect for such a critical strategy topic. We seek to facilitate more studies in this domain by introducing a novel, hand‐collected dataset of top management team compositions of S&P 500 firms between 1993 and 2020.

A Simple, Ultrastable, and Cost‐Effective Oxygen‐Scavenging System for Long‐Term DNA‐PAINT Imaging

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A simple, enzyme‐free, and cost‐effective oxygen scavenging system enhances DNA‐PAINT super‐resolution microscopy by increasing photostability, minimizing docking strand degradation, and enabling faster, high‐precision localizations. Its long‐term stability supports extended imaging, yielding improved spatial resolution and image quality.
