Hydrophilic Janus Micelles From an ABC Triblock Copolymer

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 14, 27 March 2026.
An amphiphilic triblock copolymer with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(N‐vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) coronas self‐assembles into spherical micelles with Janus‐type surface segregation in water. Cryo‐TEM, enabled by selective PVP labeling, and 1H‐NOESY NMR reveal phase separation.

In Vivo Effects of N,N‐Diethyl‐Meta‐Toluamide (DEET) Exposure on Sinonasal Epithelia in a Murine Model

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 1122-1124, April 2026.
Abstract Environmental factors, including airborne toxicants, are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis, although the exact mechanism is not fully understood. The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the impact of pesticide, N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET), on the sinonasal epithelium using an in vivo murine model ...

Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D‐limonene synthase downregulated trees

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2949-2959, April 2026.
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

The Ambiguous Ecologies of Agri‐Alternatives: Exploring the Calculus of Social Reproduction in Rural India

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper advances scholarship on agri‐alternatives by probing the gap between romanticised narratives of how alternative farming transitions ought to be and the actual practices farmers enact in their fields. Focusing on moments when such alternatives encounter on‐the‐ground realities, we propose ambiguous ecologies as a lens to explore the ...
