Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Soil acidity stress: A faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation challenge in Ethiopia, mitigation, and future perspectives

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil acidity is among the most important abiotic stresses globally constraining agricultural land and crop productivity. Globally, about 30%–40% of total arable land is under the influence of acidic soil. In Ethiopia, approximately 43% of arable land and productive areas are constrained by acidic soil.

Relation between nuclear DNA content and rate of cell growth during interphase in four species of Angiospermae

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015
Among four species of Angiospermae with known nuclear DNA content (Cucurbita pepo - 2.6 pg, Helianthus annuus - 12.0 pg, Vicia faba — 38.0 pg, and Tulipa kaufmanniana - 93.7 pg) the cell growth in the intermitotic period of the cell cycle has been ...

The Crop Feeding Behavior of Rhesus Macaques in a Forest‐Farm Mosaic in Central Nepal: Implications for Human–Wildlife Coexistence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 3, March 2026.
Rhesus macaques in Nepal fed on crops for a longer duration and caused more crop damage when the foraging party was larger. Farmer interventions failed to reduce the duration of crop feeding and the amount of crop damage. ABSTRACT Human‐driven habitat change is forcing nonhuman primates to exploit anthropogenic landscapes, resulting in primate crop ...

The Culturable Mycobiome of Powdery Mildew‐Infected Plants

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Botanical gardens host diverse plant assemblages that provide valuable opportunities to study fungal biodiversity and plant–fungal interactions. Powdery mildews (Erysiphaceae) are common pathogens in these settings, yet little is known about how they co‐occur with culturable fungi present on infected leaves.

Are crop yields limited by pollinators? Proper assessments using pollinator gradients require measurements of flower density and yield potential

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 563-569, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract It is widely documented that many crops depend on animal—and primarily insect—pollination, but the degree to which pollinators limit yield in comparison with other factors is poorly understood.
