CrustCheck: a conceptual framework for interpreting biocrust trait–function relationships in drylands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biocrusts are increasingly recognized for their contribution to soil stability, hydrology, nutrient cycling, and energy balance in drylands, yet practical field methods for assessing functional roles are limited. Existing approaches typically rely on cover estimates, taxonomic identification, or laboratory analyses, providing ...

Addressing multiple management goals during roadside restoration: reducing weed invasion and fire risk while enhancing native plants and pollinator habitat in semiarid, invaded grasslands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Roadside vegetation management efforts often target a single desirable outcome; however, we frequently have multiple management goals for restoration. Multiple goals may be achieved concurrently, but the efficacy of roadside revegetation methods is largely unclear, especially when multiple methods are combined.

Hydrologic effects of tidal wetland restoration in the subsided Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta, California, United States

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration project in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta involves flooding of delta lands; however, concerns have been raised that such flooding will increase the hydraulic pressures on subsided adjacent islands and threaten levee stability.

Effects of irrigated cover crop cultivation period on common bean and soybean yield

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Cover crop inclusion is essential for improving soil management in tropical no till systems; however, the optimal duration of irrigated off‐season cultivation remains uncertain. This 3‐year field study evaluated nine cover crop species or mixtures and four cultivation periods (60, 75, 90, and 105 days) on biomass production, soil chemical ...

Spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping for crop water stress assessment: A review

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Water stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity worldwide, and its impacts are intensifying due to climate variability and increasing water scarcity. This review focuses on the spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping as a critical approach to improving crop water‐stress assessment and supporting precision water ...

Insights into biomass accumulation and challenges in grain yield prediction of elite breeding materials using UAV‐based vegetation indices in soft red winter wheat

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract High‐throughput phenotyping (HTP) techniques have brought new opportunities to understand and evaluate key traits in plant breeding programs. Combining multiple measures through time and random regression models permits a more comprehensive understanding of the genetic and environmental effects on trait expression over time. This study aims to
