Combining phenomic and genomic selection for pea breeding improvement
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a strategic crop in the development of sustainable agriculture. However, the genetic gain remains limited despite advances in breeding. Genomic selection holds promise to accelerate varietal improvement, but its high implementation cost restricts its use in crops.

World Food Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, November 2026.ABSTRACT Agricultural development initiatives in sub‐Saharan Africa have emphasized improved crop varieties as a pathway to food security, resilience, and rural poverty reduction. However, empirical evidence often focuses narrowly on plot‐level outcomes and overlooks whole‐farm effects and the substantial heterogeneity in farmers' management practices,

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2448-2466, October 2026.ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Applied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.Abstract Open‐label placebo (OLP) treatments show beneficial effects on various health‐related outcomes, but studies investigating OLP effects on physiological measures remain scarce. This randomized controlled trial examined the effect of a 4‐week OLP intervention on psychological distress and hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in 202 healthy ...

Use of Wearable Sensors in Angelman Syndrome: A Systematic Review
Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, Volume 70, Issue 10, Page 985-1000, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Wearable sensors are a promising method for collecting clinical trial outcome data for people with Angelman syndrome (AS). However, there has yet to be a systematic probe into the ways in which wearable sensors have been successfully used in AS. The current study aims to provide a quantitative summary of wearable sensors used in AS,

Obesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.Obesity is widely recognized as a pro‐thrombotic condition, yet the specific biomarker profile reflecting coagulation activation remains incompletely defined. Obesity is associated with increased coagulation activation, particularly in children, suggesting an early pro‐thrombotic shift.

Stochastic Condensation With Information Flow for Causality Analysis
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Water vapor concentration in turbulent clouds fluctuates over a wide range of scales, challenging physical understanding of droplet growth mechanisms, prediction of droplet size distributions, and attribution of causal connections. We generalize a minimalist Brownian‐motion model (McGraw & Liu, 2006, https://doi.org/10.1029/2005gl023545 ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Low‐level clouds in the tropical cyclone (TC) rainbands modulate the radial inflow of warm, moist boundary layer air, which can impact TC intensity. Yet, precisely measuring rainband cloud boundaries with existing remote sensing techniques remains a challenge.

Why Didn't I Get a Payout? Understanding Farmer Choices, Index Insurance, and Basis Risk
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1135-1145, September 2026.ABSTRACT Index insurance, while heralded as a potential solution to alleviate poverty and food insecurity among agricultural households, has its own set of challenges, notably basis risk. Basis risk is the discrepancy between the insurance payout and losses incurred, posing a significant deterrent to the adoption of index insurance.

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1119-1134, September 2026.ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...
