Abstract Intercropping of cereals with legumes is a well‐established strategy for maximizing yield, but its effectiveness in water‐use efficiency (WUE) is not well recognized. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of manure and maize‐soybean intercropping on ammonia (NH3) volatilization, yield, and WUE.

ABSTRACT Background Evidence regarding clinical characteristics and determinants of mortality among patients with acute poisoning in agricultural regions of Ethiopia remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate baseline clinical predictors associated with in‐hospital mortality among acutely poisoned patients in a low‐resource tertiary emergency ...

The Role of Astrocytes in the Inflammatory Response in Neurodiseases
Reactive astrocyte‐mediated pathogenic mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases Schematic representation of key astrocytic pathways contributing to pathology in the pathogenesis of AD, PD, ALS, and HD. In AD, astrocytes exhibit Aβ plaque‐associated activation characterized by GFAP/S100β upregulation, accompanied by impaired EAAT2‐mediated glutamate ...

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...

Agricultural management and environmental conditions influence the biochemical composition of food crops; however, the specific drivers of this variation remain insufficiently understood, despite their importance for climate change adaptation and human health.

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 ...

Behavioural manipulation of Psylliodes chrysocephala provides promising opportunities for sustainable pest management in oilseed rape systems. This review synthesises evidence on glucosinolates and their volatile isothiocyanate derivatives as phagostimulants and attractants, alongside the repellent or antifeedant effects of non‐host plants, plant ...

ABSTRACT Mancozeb is one of the most widely used agricultural fungicides, exhibiting strong efficacy against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi. However, its widespread application comes at the cost of environmental contamination. Here, we show the effects of Inga vera leaf litter contamination with Mancozeb on life‐history traits of Aedes ...

ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollutants, including the widely used herbicide metolachlor (MET) and cigarette butt (CB) litter. Parasites represent an additional biotic stressor that can modulate pollutant effects on their hosts.

ABSTRACT Weedy rice (Oryza spp.) provides a unique model for studying adaptive evolution because herbicide resistance can arise through both crop‐to‐weed gene flow and independent mutational events. In Brazil, nearly two decades of cultivation of imidazolinone (IMI)‐resistant rice have imposed intense selection for acetolactate synthase (ALS ...
