The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica
Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.The integration of metal nanoclusters (MNCs) with reticular frameworks (RFs) has recently emerged as a powerful strategy to create composite materials with enhanced and synergistic functionalities. This review provides an overview of the synthetic strategies developed for constructing MNCs/RFs composites and their recent advances in biomedical ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We highlight how agrestal environments and maternal effects may facilitate the adaptation of crop‐wild hybrid sunflower to agroecosystems. We present two consecutive years of data on diverse wild and reciprocal crop‐wild hybrid sunflower populations planted in three contrasting, ruderal or agrestal, environments. We found that (i) agrestal environments

Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 66-80, February 2026.ABSTRACT The loss of biodiversity presents one of the most pressing societal challenges of our time. Insects play a crucial role for biodiversity in terms of ecosystem services and food provision. Although insects receive increasing public and academic attention, the development of policy mixes for insect conservation remains challenging.

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1842-1852, February 2026.Herbicides elicit a spectrum of responses in Nitrospirillum amazonense, ranging from the stimulation of metabolic functions (biological nitrogen fixation, IAA production) to significant growth inhibition and acute toxicity. Abstract BACKGROUND Herbicides can exert significant toxicity on nontarget organisms, including plant growth‐promoting bacteria ...
