An Overview of West African Traditional Soft Cheese: Processing, Safety, and Quality Characteristics

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 6, November 2025.
ABSTRACT West African soft cheese (WASC) is widely consumed and nutritionally valuable across West Africa. It also sustains livelihoods, particularly among Fulani households, by providing regular income for women and strengthens household food security and autonomy. However, concerns persist about its safety and quality.

The Bug‐Network (BugNet): A Global Experimental Network Testing the Effects of Invertebrate Herbivores and Fungal Pathogens on Plant Communities and Ecosystem Function in Open Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The Bug‐Network (BugNet) is a novel global collaborative research network that implements standardized consumer‐reduction experiments in herbaceous‐ or shrub‐dominated ecosystems to assess the impacts of invertebrate herbivores and fungal pathogens on plant communities and ecosystem functioning.

Improving N use and performance of arable crops on organic arable farms using an expert group approach (OF0178) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This is the final report for Defra project OF0178. Government seeks to support the development of organic farming in the UK, but nitrogen (N) almost always limits productivity on organic farms.

Evidence of Rapid Evolution in Herbivory Defense Responses With Conserved Trade‐Offs in Populations of Medicago polymorpha

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study uses a historical invasion by Medicago polymorpha (Burr Clover) to test the predictive power of the Shifting Defense Hypothesis (SDH) by investigating variation in plant defenses to herbivorous insects. We compared the feeding preferences of a generalist and a specialist herbivore on native and invasive populations of M.

A multi‐scale approach to integrating rewilding into agricultural landscapes

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 23, Issue 8, October 2025.
Finding ways to improve the sustainability of modern agriculture by recovering nature in agricultural landscapes is critical for conserving biodiversity and enhancing human well‐being. Rewilding principles could be applied to any type of landscape, which raises the possibility of employing rewilding approaches in agricultural areas while maintaining ...

Elevated CO2 and enriched nitrogen proportionally decrease species richness most at small spatial scales in a grassland experiment

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 10, Page 2800-2812, October 2025.
Spatial scales influence how increases in CO2 and nitrogen negatively affect species diversity. These anthropogenic changes influence species interactions, which can lead to varying effects from the neighborhood to community scale. The most acute proportional change in species richness occurred at the finest spatial scales but declines in relative ...
