Non‐Additive Interactions Between Multiple Mutualists and Host Plant Genotype Simultaneously Promote Increased Plant Growth and Pathogen Defence

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...

Multi‐Elemental Analysis for Geographical Tracing of Chickpeas Produced in Nearby Locations Around a Protected Geographical Indication

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The multi‐elemental profile has repeatedly been proposed as a reliable indicator of the geographical origin of plant‐derived foods, as mineral composition accurately reflects the local soil geochemistry and environmental factors. However, this approach may fail in distinguishing specimens from nearby locations, which are expected to be exposed

Climate‐Smart Agricultural Assets and Household Coping Strategies in Times of Upheaval

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transferring agricultural assets can be welfare‐improving for smallholders. Can agricultural assets also improve smallholders' ability to cope with unprecedented exogenous shocks? We investigate this question using the case of subsidized solar‐powered irrigation pumps (SIP) during the time of upheaval (COVID‐19 pandemic) in Nepal.

Agronomic performance, nitrogen fixation, and amino acid profile of different common bean genotypes in Germany

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are a highly nutritious legume crop with global significance. However, their cultivation is limited in temperate regions like Germany due to climatic and agronomic constraints. The cultivation of beans has gained attention due to their potential contribution to climate change mitigation by reducing nitrogen
