The Development of a Decision Framework Selecting Between Riparian Management Measures for Farmed Land

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural mitigation measures should be correctly designed and sited to make effective barriers for diffuse pollution. Landscape contexts of soils, slope, erosion and surface runoff generation differ across scales, farm types and management. A diversity of mitigation measures are being developed to improve trapping of key pollutants.

Defining the parameters of comet assay for reliably detecting DNA damage as a marker of X‐ray based irradiation in insects treated with non‐lethal doses for export fruit sanitation

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 7232-7243, October 2025.
Houseflies, clover root weevils, and mangoes were used to demonstrate the comet assay's adaptability. Our findings indicate that the comet assay can reliably detect irradiation‐induced DNA damage in both insects and fruit. However, the assay parameters require careful adjustment to account for differences in insect tissue types and life stages ...
