Harnessing exotic germplasm for red clover improvement: Tracking genomic introgression and deploying genomic selection

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a globally important temperate forage legume. Its symbiosis with soil‐borne rhizobia enables nitrogen fixation, and its ability to produce quality forage under diverse soil conditions enhances pasture productivity, particularly during water deficits.

The relative abundance of crop and natural food influences crop consumption by brown bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Many mammalian species now inhabit anthropogenic landscapes, and human–wildlife conflicts, particularly pertaining to crop damage, have become a significant issue. To develop more effective measures to limit crop damage caused by wildlife, it is crucial to identify how natural and anthropogenic food availability affect crop use by wildlife in the ...

A Collaborative Optimisation Strategy of Electric Agricultural Machinery Clusters and Rural Distribution Network in Renewable Energy Storage Application Scenario

open access: yesIET Smart Energy Systems, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 204-222, September 2026.
This paper proposes a two‐stage electric agricultural machinery charging optimisation strategy that first adjusts Charging scheduling to minimise load variance, then uses V2G technology with idle machinery as energy storage to reduce fluctuation and improve PV integration, solved via NSGA‐II and TOPSIS.

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...
