Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1121-1144, August 2026.Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

Towards an integrated molecular understanding of plant hormones
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2787-2826, August 2026.This review offers a comprehensive overview of the nine plant hormones, delving into their biosynthesis, transport, signaling and crosstalk mechanisms. Because the complexity of plant hormonal control goes beyond these core elements, additional specific features are discussed. Lastly, this review highlights how fundamental insights drive hormonal‐based

Feeding non-preference by Spodoptera frugiperda and Spodoptera eridania on tomato genotypes
Revista Ceres, 2013 Larvae of the genus Spodoptera spp. are highly polyphagous and can cause economical losses in several agricultural crops. Given their growing importance in the tomato crop, especially for industry, this work aimed to evaluate the feeding non-preference ...

Barley HvBODYGUARD1 controls cuticular specialisations regulated by SHINE transcription factors
New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1188-1208, August 2026.Cuticle defects result from defective HvBDG1 alleles. Summary Land plants secrete a protective outer cuticular layer with diverse functions. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) develops two cuticular specialisations: the β‐diketone rich wax bloom on vegetative tissues and an adherent grain surface which sticks to the hulls, leading to barley's distinctive ...

Reproduction of Mi-Virulent Meloidogyne incognita Isolates on Lycopersicon spp.
Journal of nematology, 2011 Selection of detectable numbers of Mi-virulent root-knot nematodes has necessitated a greater understanding of nematode responses to new sources of resistance. During the course of this research, we compared the reproduction of four geographically distinct Mi-virulent root-knot nematode isolates on three resistant accessions of Lycopersicon peruvianum.

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1315-1329, August 2026.Isoprene emission in oaks originated from convergent adaptive evolution of terpene synthases, involving a substrate shift from monoterpene to isoprene production within a Fagaceae‐specific TPS lineage. Abstract Plants emit a wide range of volatile organic compounds, among which isoprene is the most abundant and atmospherically influential. Although oak
