The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Consumer Preferences for Gene‐Edited Foods: A Review of the Literature and Discussion of Industry and Policy Implications

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 1, Page 12-24, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE), a revolutionary genetic engineering technology that makes targeted modifications to plant and animal genomes, offers the potential to address key challenges in food security, nutrition, safety, health, agricultural productivity, and sustainability, yet consumer demand for GE foods remains uncertain and complex.

Effects of Phytoplasma Infection on Aster Leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) Settling Behavior and Development on Brassica napus

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 132-141, February 2026.
Aster yellows phytoplasma (AYp) infection alters host plant preference in aster leafhoppers (Macrosteles quadrilineatus), with infected vectors showing a significant preference for AYp‐infected canola (Brassica napus) early in the infection period. However, this preference fades as infection progresses. Despite early attraction, B.

From Local Biodiversity to Global Food Security: Antioxidant Evidence of Unconventional Edible Plants (2020–2025)

Journal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.
This scoping review (2020–2025) compiles validated evidence on the antioxidant potential of unconventional edible plants (PANCs). Thirty species showed high phenolic content and strong radical‐scavenging activity, reinforcing their role as natural antioxidants and sustainable alternatives to synthetic additives within biodiversity‐based food systems ...

The Content of Dietary Melatonin in 119 Food Items and Its Relationship With Chronic Diseases: Results of the CUME+ Study

Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Dietary melatonin, naturally occurring in plant‐ and animal‐based foods, has been linked to beneficial effects on sleep, mood and metabolic health. Although evidence suggests that food‐derived melatonin may elevate circulating levels, few studies have assessed its intake through habitual diets or explored associations with chronic ...
