The Efficiency of Maize and Common Bean Intercropping Using Economic, Competitive, and Biological Indices for a Sustainable Production

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Intercropping is an effective method for resource utilization that typically enhances crop yields compared with monoculture. This study was conducted using split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications over the 2022–2023 years.

Resilience through diversity: The potential of modelling species and variety interactions to enhance resilience of production systems

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 563-579, March 2026.
Agricultural production systems in the global North combine monocultures of specialised varieties and breeds with external interventions and inputs. Increasing the diversity of varieties, breeds and species may increase the system's resilience to external pressures through beneficial interactions.

Climate‐Resilient Crop Production Under Agrivoltaics: Experimental Evaluation of Amaranth Production With Semi‐Transparent Photovoltaic Modules in Canada Under Changing Climates

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S2, Page 296-317, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change threatens global food security, requiring climate‐smart systems that enhance both crop resilience and sustainable energy production. While agrivoltaics is recognized for combining solar power generation with agriculture, its effects on emerging stress‐tolerant crops such as amaranth remain largely unexplored, particularly under ...

Elucidating the Genetic Basis of Columnar Upright Architecture in Populus Through CRISPR Disruption of TILLER ANGLE CONTROL1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1377-1397, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Narrow or upright branch angles in shoots and leaves lead to columnar, upright‐growing tree architectures, as observed in various tree species such as Lombardy poplar (Populus nigra var. italica). However, the genetic mechanism underlying this unique growth habit in Lombardy poplar has not yet been elucidated.
