Homogeneous Observer‐Based Affine Formation Tracking

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 2692-2704, 25 March 2026.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the control of mobile agents, termed followers, to track a time‐varying affine formation specified by a set of leaders. We present a distributed hierarchical method composed of a homogeneous high‐order sliding mode observer and a tracking controller. The observer estimates the followers' target trajectories from neighbor

Chemical Constituents of Taxodium mucronatum (Cupressaceae) and Some of Its Endophytic Fungi, and Their In Silico and In Vitro Evaluations as SARS‐CoV‐2 Inhibitors and as Cytotoxic Agents

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abietanes, pimaranes and cycloartanes were characterized from different plant tissues of Taxodium mucronatum. Curvularins, mycophenolic acids and ergosterol were isolated from some fungal endophytes. The isolated compounds were in silico and in vitro evaluated as antiviral and cytotoxic agents.

Hybrid kernels integrating genomic and multispectral data improve wheat genomic prediction accuracy

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is transforming plant breeding by enabling more accurate and efficient identification of superior genotypes. However, its practical implementation remains challenging, as achieving high prediction accuracy is critical for its success. Several factors—including sample size, the degree of relatedness among individuals, and
