Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

Leaf heat tolerance in a native Californian shrub responds in expected and unexpected ways to differences in range, season, and sunlight exposure

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Earth's ecosystems are experiencing wide‐ranging impacts from global climate change, including increased average and extreme temperatures. These temperature shifts can drastically affect plant physiology, threatening the future of even common plant species. Here, we focus on photosynthetic function in a native Southern California shrub species.

Sensitivity of Irish Pyrenopeziza brassicae populations to methyl benzimidazole carbamate (MBC), quinone outside inhibitor (QoI) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
For three collections of Irish Pyrenopeziza brassicae populations fungicide sensitivity status to methyl benzimidazole carbamate (MBC), quinone outside inhibitor (QoI) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides was determined using sensitivity screening in vitro. Molecular mechanisms of insensitivity have been identified for MBC and QoI in

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

PCR‐based species identification tools for wireworms (Coleoptera: Elateridae) of economic importance in Canada

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Species‐specific PCR primers and PCR‐based assays were designed for the identification of 15 economically important and difficult to distinguish wireworm pests in Canada. PCR specificity testing and performance assessments confirm the accuracy of the assays.

Transcriptomic resources and functional validation of RNAi in the cabbage seedpod weevil, Ceutorhynchus obstrictus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Transcriptome sequencing of Ceutorhynchus obstrictus revealed RNA interference (RNAi) targets; double‐stranded RNA microinjection reduced transcript levels and increased mortality, with αCOP and Rop showing strongest lethal effects, indicating promising RNAi‐based pest control candidates.
