Tillage regime affects weed infestation in a winter wheat–spring pea rotation in the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Compared with conventional tillage, no‐till reduces soil erosion and is considered a more sustainable practice in dryland cropping systems of the Pacific Northwest. However, weed management in these systems relies solely on herbicides, and the number of herbicide‐resistant weeds is increasing each year.

Removal of cadmium from aqueous solution using marine green algae, Ulva lactuca

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014
The present study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of marine algae for removal of metals from the aqueous solution. The green alga, Ulva lactuca, collected from the intertidal zone of the Suez Bay, northern part of the Red Sea was used to reduce cadmium ...

The isolation of flowering time genes from lettuce to enable the manipulation of bolting time [PDF]

open access: yes
The time of bolting is an important factor in lettuce production because it affects the yield and quality of the harvested crop. Bolting is promoted by higher temperatures and is an increasing problem for growers with the current trend for warmer ...

Structural Attributes Outweigh Topographical Effects in Determining Vascular Plant Diversity Within Southern Apennine Old‐Growth Forests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Forest structure accounted for a larger unique fraction of vascular plant compositional variation in Southern Apennine old‐growth forests (23.5%) than topography alone (12.8%), with a substantial shared contribution between the two predictor sets.

Biochar Improves Plant Vigor and Defense Response to Green Peach Aphid Myzus persicae in Hydroponic Lettuce (Lactuca sativa)

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Biochar (BC) is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural amendment to improve soil health, promote plant growth, and suppress insect pests. While its application has been extensively refined in conventional soil‐based agroecosystems, its performance in hydroponics, particularly in liquid formulations remain largely unexplored. The

Assessment of mineral nutrients and risk elements in plants growing on soils polluted by magnesite emissions

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment
Changes in the content of mineral nutrients (Ca, Mg, K, Na) and risk elements (Mn, Cd) in the assimilatory organs of selected plant species were studied along the altitudinal gradient of A‒D zones polluted by alkaline emissions from the magnesite factory

Rising Indoor Wheat Yields in Vertical Farming

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is central to human nutrition but increasingly challenged by climate change and resource constraints. Vertical farming offers a potential solution through controlled, year‐round cultivation, but the upper limits of productivity remain unclear.

The Distribution and Feeding Ecology of Three Marine Invertebrates in a Customary Fisheries Management Area and Implications for Restoration

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Biotic interactions are fundamental to the structuring of marine communities. Predator–prey and competitive interactions can drive species distribution, abundance and mediate individual behaviour. These interactions are especially important to understand in the context of restoration.
