Chitosan activates a sequential Ca 2+ -ROS-NO-jasmonate signaling cascade governing withanolide accumulation in Withania somnifera

Plant Signaling & Behavior
Chitosan promotes withanolide accumulation in W. somnifera; however, the temporal organization of the underlying signaling network remains unresolved. We examined whether calcium (Ca2⁺), reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), and jasmone form ...

Effect of Farm-Level Constraints, Existing and Prospective Policies on Expansion of Coconut-Based Intercropping in Sri Lanka [PDF]

Coconut-based intercropping (CBI) in Sri Lanka was introduced some 20 years ago to overcome the two main limitations of traditional coconut monocropping, inefficient land use and low incomes to farmers, but it has not been widely adopted.

Plant species are more important to bacterial community composition than seeding ratio in a pea‐canola intercropping system

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Demand for agricultural land has increased due to rising demand for food, potentially leading to expansion into previously untouched habitats, which threatens refugia of native plants. We aimed to provide insight into how variation in seeding ratio may impact soil bacterial communities in a pea‐canola intercropping system, potentially altering crop ...

Safety Evaluation of Herbicides in Maize and Soybean and Their Antioxidant Defense Responses to Thifensulfuron-Methyl and Flufenacet

Agronomy
Intercropping of maize (Zea mays) and soybean (Glycine max) is a sustainable practice, but herbicide safety is critical for weed control without crop injury. This study evaluated the safety of pre-emergence (acetochlor and flufenacet) and post-emergence (

Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) in Nigeria: Regional cultivation patterns, landrace diversity, and farmer knowledge for conserving a climate‐resilient indigenous cereal

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) cereals are valued for their drought resilience, adaptability to poor soils, and cultural importance. In Nigeria, where both species are cultivated, fonio has declined due to labor‐intensive processing, lower yields, and changing livelihood choices. By documenting 21 landraces (15 D. exilis and 6 D. iburua),

Climate‐smart land management: Greenhouse gas outcomes and social and economic pathways to adoption

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change poses one of the greatest threats to natural and working lands, reducing the resilience of agricultural and forest productivity. Because land management is a leading source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, climate‐smart management practices are being implemented to reduce net emissions while sustaining yields.

Estimation of soybean yield based on high-throughput phenotyping and machine learning

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionSoybeans are an important crop used for food, oil, and feed. However, China’s soybean self-sufficiency is highly inadequate, with an annual import volume exceeding 80%.

Combined effects of canola plant density and insecticide management strategies on flea beetle abundance, canola defoliation, and yield across the Canadian prairies

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing canola plant density reduced flea beetle abundance per plant and increased yield, independent of region or insecticide use, highlighting its potential as a component of integrated pest management. Abstract The crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze), and the striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera ...

Field investigation of glucosinolates and morphological traits in mitigating Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation through crop varieties and companion planting

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genotype and cropping system influenced oilseed rape ecophysiological traits, including glucosinolate compounds (glucoraphanin, glucobrassicanapin, and butyl‐glucosinolates) and biomass, which were linked to Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation, with varietal effects stronger than faba bean companion planting.
