Cotton rotation with single and multispecies cover crops affects yield, quality, and economic outcomes

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Cover crops (CCs) have gained popularity in continuous crop production systems due to their agroecosystem benefits. This study evaluated the effects of nine CC treatments (single or multispecies) and no cover crop (noCC) on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth characteristics, production, and economic returns in the Mid‐South United States ...

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1574-1602, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Providing insecticide treated bed nets in antiretroviral treatment clinics in Malawi: a pilot study

Malawi Medical Journal, 2008
HIV infection and malaria, two of the most common and important health problems in sub-Saharan Africa, have been demonstrated to have interactive pathology. In Malawi, where malaria is endemic, and antiretroviral therapy (ART) delivery is scaling up, we piloted integration of long-lasting insecticide-treated bednets (ITN) provision in three ART clinics.
