Solar farms can mitigate negative impacts of whiplash weather on plant communities in a dryland ecosystem

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Utility‐scale solar energy (USSE) development generates novel questions regarding coupling clean energy production with terrestrial ecosystem services (e.g., forage production, pollinator support). We found that a USSE array sited in a fallowed cropland maintained a reseeded native plant community even a decade post‐restoration and that the array ...

Epistemic diversity and the politics of knowledge in plant disease management: Insights from the Xylella fastidiosa epidemic in southern Italy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Xylella fastidiosa is a major plant pathogen affecting crops such as grapes, citrus, almonds, and olives, with potentially severe consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods worldwide. This paper examines the conflict around the management of the X. fastidiosa outbreak affecting olive trees in southern Italy.

From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

Emerging Agents for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy: Biomolecular Carriers Paving the Way for Precision Radiotherapy

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) requires key non‐negotiable technical criteria: megadose administration, precise tumor‐specific targeting, favorable biocompatibility, and sustained tumor retention. Overcoming these interconnected challenges fundamentally depends on biomolecular carriers, which are critical for translating the therapeutic potential

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Amino acid vectorization of salicylic acid enables efficient activation of NPR1‐dependent defense without phytotoxicity

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Amino acid‐vectorized salicylic acid activates PR1/NPR1‐dependent defenses without phytotoxicity, showing an efficient strategy for controlled delivery and enhanced plant immunity. Abstract BACKGROUND Addressing global food security under rapid population growth and climate change requires sustainable strategies to protect crops from pathogens while ...
