Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Glyphosate inhibition of ferric reductase activity in iron deficient sunflower roots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Iron (Fe) deficiency is increasingly being observed in cropping systems with frequent glyphosate applications. A likely reason for this is that glyphosate interferes with root uptake of Fe by inhibiting ferric reductase in roots required for Fe ...

Experimental methods for wind tunnel studies of seed dispersal by wind

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.
Abstract The complexity and variability of natural environments make quantitative studies of seed wind dispersal challenging. Wind tunnel experiments offer a controlled alternative to investigate the mechanisms of seed wind dispersal. This review focuses on wind tunnels and the associated technologies used for studying seed wind dispersal, including ...

Managing 2,4-D for No-Till Burndown Treatments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
2,4-D is commonly added to glyphosate for burndown of existing vegetation in no-till fields. The advantages of including 2,4-D include: better activity on dandelion, horseweed and many winter annual broadleaves than glyphosate alone, more consistent ...

Isolation and Identification of Pathogenic Fungi (Colletotrichum nymphaeae and C. siamense) From Avocado and Sensitivity to Essential Oils From Pelargonium graveolens or Cordia verbenacea

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
This study reveals the effectiveness of essential oils as biofungicide agents against phytopathogens, advancing the understanding of their antimicrobial properties. The findings highlight the importance of the sustainable use of these compounds for disease control in plants, contributing to more ecological agricultural practices. ABSTRACT The effective

Response of Corn and Palmer amaranth to Mesotrione [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mesotrione is a herbicide used for the selective pre- and post-emergence control of a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds in corn (Zea mays). It inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) which leads to stop biosynthesis of ...

Semi‐tilling maintains the arthropod food web structure but decreases biological pest control in olive groves

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 187, Issue 3, Page 345-355, November 2025.
Semi‐tillage, a widely used agricultural method to improve water availability and minimise soil erosion in crops, may compromise pest control in olive groves. Stable isotopes (N15 and C13) analysis showed an effect of semi‐tillage in the composition of the basal resources of potential natural enemies in the three olive grove strata: These changes may ...
