Integrated Soil Salinisation Management Strategies in Agriculture
Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.This review synthesises integrated water, agronomic, and biochemical strategies for managing soil salinisation, presenting a decision framework for selecting cost‐effective amendments based on initial soil assessment and long‐term sustainability monitoring. ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a global threat to agricultural sustainability, affecting about

Response of specific leaf area to light: comparative study of a large species set
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.Specific leaf area (SLA) is a commonly used proxy for the leaf economy spectrum in plants, separating species with low‐cost leaves (in terms of carbon) with short lifespan and hence fast turnover from species with high‐cost and long‐lived leaves. While SLA is used mainly for interspecific comparisons, it also varies within species both ontogenetically ...

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT The growing demand for food, energy, and water in resource‐constrained regions intensifies land‐use conflicts, where solar photovoltaic (PV) expansion often competes with agriculture. Agrivoltaics, the co‐location of crop cultivation beneath PV systems, offers a potential dual‐use solution to enhance land efficiency. This study presents one of

Particle &Particle Systems Characterization, Volume 43, Issue 6, June 2026.The specificity of the delivery system developed was then tested with plants, using an atrazine target plant (Brassica sp.) and a non‐target one (Zea mays). The results obtained demonstrate that controlled treatments based on atrazine loaded bijels can reduce the growing conditions only in target plants with higher performances respect to plants ...
