Understanding contingency in wolf‐mediated livestock predation across a mosaic of land uses: An agent‐based modelling approach

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The return of grey wolves to multi‐use landscapes in North America and Europe raises concerns over accompanying risks of livestock predation. While local‐level risk factors have received attention, it is difficult to explore the role that landscape‐scale variables, such as landscape connectivity, play in driving livestock losses.

Unravelling vicious circles of land use competition and food insecurity in agropastoral rangelands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In many regions of the world, the adoption of new livelihood strategies that compete with traditional strategies is one driver of competition over land, resulting in unforeseen impacts on the livelihoods of land users and accelerating land degradation. One example is the Borana Zone in southern Ethiopia, where the expansion of crop cultivation

Pathological classification of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy into several types and their relationships with CTG18.1 expansion repeats

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common primary disease of the corneal endothelium and the leading indication for corneal transplantation in Western countries. It is characterized by progressive accumulation, over two to three decades, of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in Descemet's membrane (DM ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal inoculation increases the bioavailability of zinc and iron in wheat grain

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Bread wheat is an important crop that supplies calories and nutrients to the global population. Enhancing the concentrations and bioavailability of essential micronutrients in wheat is crucial for human nutrition, and we investigated whether arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can contribute to the biofortification of wheat.

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

From flower buds to bolls: how cotton reproductive structures shape boll weevil development, reproduction and survival

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Female boll weevils feeding on flower buds promote reproduction regardless of their immature diet, whereas boll feeding increases lipid reserves and lifespan, revealing a nutrition‐driven trade‐off that sustains survival and reproduction in tropical boll weevil populations.

Targeted herbicide spraying systems: role of nozzle type, number of nozzle activation, nozzle orientation, and boom height on spray coverage and weed control

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Targeted herbicide application technology performance depends on sprayer configuration. Across five studies, activation of multiple, overlapping nozzles and maintaining appropriate boom height consistently improved spray coverage and weed control, highlighting the importance of optimized sprayer setup for effective and reliable weed control.
