Time course sensor‐based phenotyping can predict Ascochyta blight disease severity in Cicer species

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Ascochyta blight is a widely occurring chickpea fungal disease that can cause severe yield loss. Breeding for crop resistance benefits from high‐throughput evaluation of plant–pathogen interactions in genotypes which can serve as sources of resistance.

Resistance sources to common bacterial blight and angular leaf spot of large speckled common bean genotypes in Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important legume crops in Ethiopia due to its versatility and adaptability. The common bean is significantly affected by major diseases, including common bean bacterial blight and angular leaf spot.

Evaluating early‐season hail damage in corn and its interaction with Goss's wilt

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Hailstorm losses are associated with plant defoliation, stand losses, and reduced crop canopy capacity to compete with weeds. Additionally, hail wounds in plants might favor disease development, potentially further reducing corn yields. Corn yield losses due to hailstorms early in the growing season are considered minor due to an expected ...

Comparative evaluation of nonlinear disease progress models for quantitative assessment of peanut leafspot disease

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Leafspot disease causes up to 70% yield losses in peanut production areas across the globe. One way to curb this menace is to use leafspot resistant peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) varieties. In breeding for disease resistance, quantitative characterization of disease dynamics, including initial inoculum (y0) and apparent infection rate (r), is ...

Effects of uncrewed aerial vehicle–applied triclopyr plus fluroxypyr rates on weeds and desirable forbs in Kansas tallgrass prairie

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract We studied the impacts of uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)‐applied triclopyr + fluroxypyr on rangeland weeds and other forbs in native tallgrass prairie. Two rates were tested: high (0.63 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.21 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr) and low (0.21 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.07 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr).

FORAGE ACCUMULATION DURING THE STOCKING PERIOD ON PASTURES SUBJECTED TO INTERMITTENT STOCKING

open access: yesCiência Animal Brasileira, 2017
The aim of this study was to evaluate the forage accumulation during the stocking period on Kikuyu grass pastures (Pennisetum clandestinum Hochst. Ex. Chiov) subjected to intermittent stocking.

Effect of Phosphate Fertilization and Cutting Date Improves Nutritional Status and Productive Parameters of a Tropical Forage Legume

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of chemical fertilizers is economically and environmentally costly to produce and apply. Therefore, optimized fertilizer use is critical to increase or maintain crop yields. We evaluated the productive and nutritional characteristics of the Stylosanthes cv “Campo Grande” submitted to different cutting date and phosphate fertilization ...

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1733-1745, September 2026.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8053-8063, September 2026.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.
