Efficient water‐soluble blue/red‐emissive carbon dots matching plant absorption spectra: Synthesis, tunable control, and their applications in promoting plant growth

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the spectral demand of plant photosystems, this review summarizes the synthesis, emission regulation, dual‐emission design, and gram‐scale production of CDs for agricultural applications. Spectrally matched blue‐ and red‐emissive CDs enhance plant light utilization by converting underutilized light into photosynthetically active radiation and

Agrivoltaic Lettuce Production Under Future Climates: A Sustainable Strategy for Optimizing Food and Energy Yields

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food system resilience is increasingly challenged by climate change and global trade volatility, even in high‐income nations like Canada. Agrivoltaics—co‐locating crops and photovoltaics (PV)–offers a sustainable production strategy to optimize land use and address both food and energy security.

First Assessment of Genetic Damage in the Speckled Cockroach (Nauphoeta cinerea) After Consumption of Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Cultivated and Commercialized in Northeastern, Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study reports, for the first time, the use of the speckled cockroach Nauphoeta cinerea as a promising bioindicator for genotoxic monitoring. It was validated through control groups (both positive and negative) in addition to testing lettuce (Lactuca sativa ) samples from public street markets consumed by N. cinerea specimens in Pernambuco,

The Effector SIX8 Contributes to Virulence of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae Race 4 on Lettuce. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
Secreted in Xylem (SIX) genes were expressed during infection of lettuce by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae race 4 (Fola4). CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout of the SIX8 gene in Fola4 reduced virulence in lettuce which was restored following Agrobacterium mediated complementation. SIX8 therefore contributes to virulence of Fola4 on lettuce.

Environmental Contaminant Accumulation in Freshwater Turtles Inhabiting Three Rivers of the Permian Basin, New Mexico, USA

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.
