Aiouea riedeliana comb. nov. (Lauraceae) from Brazil, with an amended description and provisional extinction threat assessment

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Aiouea riedeliana (Kosterm.) P.L.R.Moraes and Brotto is the new combination for Cinnamomum riedelianum Kosterm., whose type‐bringing synonym is Persea riedelii Meisn. The placement of this taxon in Aiouea is presented, justified, and illustrated here, disagreeing with its previous classification in Ocotea, as Ocotea riedeliana (Kosterm.) Kottaim., then

Mechanisms and impacts of future plant invasions: research agendas and management needs under disruptive social‐ecological change scenarios

Oikos, EarlyView.
No‐analogue futures are characteristic of the Anthropocene, but how global change, and societies' responses, will affect plant invasions remains unclear. Conducting research now to address future needs is crucial for guiding invasion management and policy.

Reducing Ammonia Emission during Food Waste Composting and Enhancing Compost Quality Using Different Additives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This research successfully reduces the ammonia emission by 45% and achieves good quality compost using additives (lactic acid or acetic acid) and bulking agents (mature compost or sawdust). The study supports Sustainable Development Goals 12 and 13 by promoting waste‐to‐resource option.

Capsicum chinense as an African traditional vegetable: Culture, resilience, and opportunity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Capsicum chinense is central to everyday diets, cultural identity, and smallholder livelihoods across Sub‐Saharan Africa, yet remains overlooked in agricultural research and policy. This paper reframes C. chinense as a traditional, climate‐resilient vegetable shaped by centuries of farmer stewardship and cultural selection.

Bridging Human and Plant Adaptations for Climate Resilience

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is transforming agriculture through both gradual shifts and increasingly unpredictable extremes, challenging farmers' ability to protect crops and livelihoods. This study brings together farmer experiences and plant adaptation strategies to explore how people and plants respond to similar climate pressures.

Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Combined effects of canola plant density and insecticide management strategies on flea beetle abundance, canola defoliation, and yield across the Canadian prairies

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing canola plant density reduced flea beetle abundance per plant and increased yield, independent of region or insecticide use, highlighting its potential as a component of integrated pest management. Abstract The crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze), and the striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera ...
