Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Increase Blast Resistance and Grain Yield in Japonica Rice Cultivars in Flooded Fields

open access: yesRice
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi establish symbiotic associations with a wide range of plant species. Root colonization by AM fungi improves the uptake of mineral nutrients in the host plant, mainly phosphorus, in exchange for photosynthetically fixed ...

Integrating habitat suitability, socioeconomics, and infrastructure to assess global biological invasion risk under climate change: A case study of the rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We developed an invasion risk index framework that integrates socioeconomic and environmental data using an entropy‐weighting method. The case study highlights the need for region‐specific biosecurity measures for Chilo suppressalis. Abstract BACKGROUND Biological invasion risk is a multifaceted concept that, according to the Food and Agriculture ...

Combined application of Bacillus velezensis JDB15 and Trichoderma harzianum JDL4 suppresses banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The surfactin C secreted by JDB15 and the probable parasitism of JDL4 lead to the leakage of intracellular macromolecules and the degradation of hyphae, respectively. Combined application of the two strains effectively controls banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions.

Fundamental Hydraulic Geometry Relations as an Accessible Tool for Identifying Channel Instability Over National Scales

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The geometry of alluvial river channels can give insight into their stability, which can inform predictions of morphological change, flood risk and ecological degradation. Fundamental hydraulic geometry relations can be used to estimate the equilibrium dimensions of stable river channels by evaluating the balance between the erodibility of bed

Process‐based hydro‐morphometric controls on runoff, erosion, and groundwater recharge in an ungauged tropical crystalline river basin: The Dayi River, Ghana

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract This study quantifies and interprets the hydro‐morphometric characteristics of the Dayi River Basin to evaluate process‐based controls on runoff generation, erosion susceptibility, and groundwater recharge in an ungauged tropical crystalline river system in Ghana.

Understanding Climate Change Education Practices in Kalimantan Through Exploratory Field Research With Local Voices

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article is based on a study that examines the practices and perspectives of selected educational actors in Kalimantan, Indonesia, on climate change education. The region is highly affected by climate crises and holds global relevance for mitigation due to its tropical forests and peatlands.
