Ingestion of Alexandrium pacificum Cysts by a Deposit Feeder: An Option for Ecosystem‐Based Approach Benefiting Aquaculture and Coastal Communities?

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Harmful algal blooms caused by the paralytic shellfish toxin‐producing species Alexandrium pacificum have increased in recent years in one of the most important aquaculture regions of New Zealand, the Marlborough Sounds. Reoccurring blooms have created large cysts beds in the sediments throughout the sounds. In this region, large populations of the sea

Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.

A Systematic Approach to Field Testing of Biological Products for Horticulture Is Required to Improve Food Security

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Food security challenges require immediate action to increase food production. Many biological products derived from plant, animal or microbial sources claim they sustainably increase yield, but there are concerns about biosecurity to be investigated before their introduction to the field.

Effects of Different Combinations of Sterile and Fertile Thaumatotibia leucotreta on Fruit Infestation and Population Growth Rate

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 137-146, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a key phytosanitary pest of citrus in South Africa. The pest damages fruit by burrowing and feeding on the pulp, thus causing yield losses and export rejections. There are several T. leucotreta management strategies, such as orchard sanitation, mating disruption, attract‐and‐kill,

Novel Antifungal Scaffold Targeting Tubulin Overcomes Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum Resistance

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Addressing pesticide resistance, novel chromone‐acylhydrazone hybrids targeting fungal tubulin are synthesized. Compound G24 potently inhibited S. sclerotiorum (EC50 = 0.21µg mL−1) and demonstrated enhanced field performance via microencapsulation, offering a sustainable strategy against resistance and for global food security.

Advancements and Challenges in the Production of Biosurfactants: A Path Toward Sustainable Surfactant Alternatives

ChemBioEng Reviews, Volume 13, Issue 1, February 2026.
Microorganisms generate versatile biosurfactants with a wide range of uses. Although cost issues still exist, industrial interest is growing because to the advantages of sustainability, which are enhanced by genetic engineering; life cycle evaluation is crucial for scalable, environmentally responsible production.
