Preliminary genetic barcodes for ash (Fraxinus) species and generation of new wide hybrids

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement The world‐wide diversity of ash trees includes genetic information encoding resistance to the ash dieback fungus and the emerald ash borer beetle, which are currently devastating ash populations in Europe and North America. In order to mobilise this genetic diversity in conventional breeding programmes, we need to be able to ...

Connecting tradition and technology: The digitization of the ethnobotanical collection at the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The digitization of RBetno (JBRJ) represents a step forward for biodiversity conservation in Brazil. Aligned with the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (Target 2, 2020–2030), this project documents the use of plants, including traditional knowledge and vernacular names, with a focus on the Atlantic Forest and Amazon.

Provision of pest alerts is associated with better farm performance in Africa

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Provision of pest alerts on invasive crop pest control in Africa was linked with a higher likelihood of adopting integrated pest management practices, as well as an improvement in crop yield and income. The results suggest that pest alerts are crucial in sustainable pest management strategies against invasive pests. Abstract BACKGROUND Crop pests cause

Poa annua becomes the first weed to evolve resistance to indaziflam applied preemergence and early‐postemergence

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We report the first confirmed global case of Poa annua evolving resistance to indaziflam applied both preemergence and early‐postemergence. Resistance intensified under cool temperatures, was not reversed by metabolic inhibitors, and was often linked to multiple resistance, underscoring urgent needs for integrated weed management.

Predicting the seasonal distribution of fall armyworm in North America using species distribution models

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The species distribution model predicts fall armyworm habitat expands in summer, covering much of the central and eastern USA in July–August, before contracting again in September. Abstract BACKGROUND Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used in pest management to predict outbreak areas.
