Host plant‐specific volatiles of Beauveria bassiana‐colonized plants initiate trophic plant–aphid–predator cascades

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9538-9552, October 2026.
Endophytic colonization of melon plants by B. bassiana modifies the crop volatile profiles in a genotype‐dependent manner. A predator choice is biased toward endophytically colonized plants infested with aphids revealing a guardian within effect of the fungus of great potential in integrated pest management.

Cannibalism in Buchananiella whitei (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) and its intraguild interactions with seven predatory mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae & Laelapidae)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 10030-10038, October 2026.
Extraguild prey reduces cannibalism and intraguild predation in Buchananiella whitei, while first‐instar nymphs dominate most predatory mites, with outcomes affected by body size and behavioral traits. Abstract BACKGROUND Cannibalism and intraguild predation (IGP) are common interactions among predators that can influence the effectiveness of ...

Seasonal Baseline Evaluation of Physicochemical Parameters and Culturable Bacterial Characteristics in Northwestern Himalayan Ramsar Sites

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Seasonal monitoring of two Himalayan Ramsar wetlands revealed significant fluctuations in physicochemical parameters and low bacterial diversity across seasons. Elevated dissolved oxygen at Renuka Ji, turbidity and dissolved oxygen at Asan Conservation Reserve levels highlight ecological sensitivity and the need for continuous monitoring and ...

A Bacillus Phage From Bangladeshi Soil, Phage APU1: Genomic Characterisation and Comparative Genomic Analysis

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Phage APU1, isolated from Bangladeshi agricultural soil, is a high‐quality, computationally predicted lytic Bacillus phage with a 153,847‐bp genome and no detected antimicrobial resistance or virulence factor genes. Comparative genomics identified APU1 as a genomically distinct member of a related Bacillus phage group.

Transforming rice production constraints into opportunities: Coordinated innovation for sustainable agrosystems in Asia

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) production remains central to global food security, particularly across Asia, where both wetland and upland cultivation systems dominate. These agroecosystems face distinct ecological and agronomic constraints that threaten sustainable intensification.

Research priorities and regional imperatives to strengthen organic agriculture in the Southeast

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Organic agriculture continues to expand rapidly in the United States, yet production in the Southeastern United States (SE) lags behind other regions despite strong consumer demand and favorable market conditions. This forum paper synthesizes findings from a regional expert assessment aimed at identifying key challenges and research priorities

Spider (Araneae) Abundance and Diversity Across Land‐Use Gradients

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We sampled spider populations in economically important kiwifruit orchards that are adjacent to either low‐disturbance ecosystems (native forest) or high‐disturbance ecosystems (maize), using pitfall traps and active sampling. A total of 2710 spiders were collected from 27 families, representing 64 species and eight functional guilds.
