Impact of cultural practices on two‐spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch) infestation in tomato cultivation in the Central Rift Valley of Ethiopia

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract The two‐spotted spider mite (TSSM; Tetranychus urticae Koch) is a major pest of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), causing substantial yield and quality losses in Ethiopia and worldwide. The present study evaluated the impact of tomato branch pruning and trellising on TSSM populations and yield in the Central Rift Valley tomato production area ...

A Spatial Clustering Approach of Economic Activities: An Application to the Agribusiness Sector in Brazil's Midwest Region

open access: yesGeographical Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of economic activities is central to regional economics. However, empirical tools for comparing industries based on the similarity of their spatial distributions remain limited. Traditional cluster analysis typically ignores geographical distance and connectivity, while spatial methods focus on clustering places rather

Exploring Farmer Identity Pathways in Generational Renewal: Successors, Potential Successors and New Entrants

open access: yesSociologia Ruralis, Volume 66, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Generational renewal is increasingly recognised as a crucial challenge for the future of agriculture. Recent literature has placed growing emphasis on the importance of farmer identity as a key dimension shaping young people's interest in agriculture, their approach to farm management and their long‐term commitment.

Multimodal Transformer Fusion of PTR‐ToF‐MS Volatiles and Targeted Non‐Volatile Metabolites Enables Data‐Driven Grading of Baimudan White Tea

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Commercial grading of Baimudan white tea still relies largely on sensory evaluation and would benefit from a rapid, objective analytical approach. This study investigated whether PTR‐ToF‐MS volatile fingerprints combined with targeted non‐volatile metabolite measurements could support data‐driven grading of four official Baimudan ...

Drought stress modulates indirect defense via bottom‐up effects in tomato and wheat

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8499-8511, September 2026.
Different water regimes can have a significant impact on plant morphology and defense pathways in tomato and wheat, triggering multiple olfactory choices in biocontrol agents of key insect pests. These findings could be used to implement biocontrol strategies within the IPM context under a changing climate scenario.

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

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8795-8809, September 2026.
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.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐
