Real‐time quality and safety monitoring of fruit juice using paper‐based platform

Food Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 140-162, March 2026.
Schematic illustration of a paper‐based biosensor for rapid detection of fruit juice spoilage. Abstract Food spoilage and safety concerns still remain critically challenging within the fruit juice industry, especially as conventional detection methods, though precise, are often too time‐consuming, costly, and reliant on centralized laboratories.

Mahi ā Wānanga—A Mana Wāhine‐Led Collaboration to Co‐Construct Meaningful Research and Meaning from Research

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 1, March 2026.
Indigenous ways of sharing and developing knowledge survive in ceremony, songs, proverbs, storytelling and purposeful dialogues. Wānanga (space for knowledge sharing) is the epitome of traditional knowledge transmission—grounded in Indigenous practice and worldview, allowing for the co‐creation of new knowledge and passing down of inherited knowledge ...

Intercropping Chickpea with Flax in Saskatchewan, Canada, Reduces Ascochyta Blight

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chickpea is a nutritious crop grown in drier parts of Saskatchewan. The disease Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei, makes production risky. Small plot trials at four Saskatchewan locations from 2018 to 2022 aimed to test the hypothesis that intercropping chickpea with flax reduces Ascochyta blight.

Comparative Evaluation of Soda and Nitrate‐Alkaline Pulping of Hemp, Flax, and Sisal Post‐harvest Biomass

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study compares hemp, flax, and sisal as nonwood raw materials for pulp production using soda and nitrate‐alkaline cooking. It evaluates chemical composition, cellulose crystallinity, yield, delignification, and paper strength. Sisal showed the highest tensile performance, while the choice of cooking method significantly influenced the quality and ...

Genomic architecture of the resistance to Phytophthora cactorum 2 (RPc2) locus in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa)

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Phytophthora crown rot, caused by Phytophthora cactorum, is a soilborne disease with broad impacts on cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). A resistance locus, RPc2, was previously identified in octoploid strawberries, but the underlying genomic architecture and causal genes remained uncharacterized.

From rhetoric to measurement: The economics of wetland conservation

Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 56-77, March 2026.
Abstract Wetland conservation continues to be a pressing issue as wetlands continue to be lost due to urban, industrial, and agricultural expansion. This paper synthesizes the current knowledge about wetland conservation economics in Canada, with a focus on prairie landscapes. We review the methods economists use to empirically measure the costs (i.e.,

Functional Dissection of a Wheat NLR Protein Reveals a Minimal Active Region and Key Regulatory Sites for Immune Signalling

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The coiled‐coil domain functions as the core signalling module of wheat NLRMoro, with residues 62–116 forming a minimal active region whose activity is fine‐tuned by intramolecular NBS and LRR regulation and key control sites. ABSTRACT Nucleotide‐binding site (NBS) leucine‐rich repeat (LRR) receptors (NLRs) are crucial for plant immunity but often come
