Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.)–maize (Zea mays L.) intercrops grown with fertilizers enhanced cowpea grain yield and profitability in Guinea savannah of Ghana

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The low yield of cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) in sub‐Saharan Africa is credited to several limitations, including poor soil fertility and unsustainable cropping systems. Cereals like maize (Zea mays L.) and legume crops like cowpea support smallholder farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa. Intercropping (more common than rotations) can boost

Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Population Genomics of Macrophomina spp. Reveals Cryptic Host Specialization and Evidence for Meiotic Recombination

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
Knowledge of the factors structuring populations of pathogenic fungi is fundamental to disease management efforts and basic biology. However, this crucial information is missing for many important pathogens, including broad-host-range and drought ...

Potential Mechanism of Paenibacillus kribbensis in Boosting Sesame Productivity and Pathogen Defense Through Metabolic Reprogramming of Flavonoid and Carbon Fixation Pathways

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
This study demonstrates that the microbial agent HTB enhances sesame yield by 30% and disease resistance by modulating flavonoid biosynthesis, photosynthetic carbon fixation, and fatty acid synthesis. These integrated mechanisms provide a sustainable strategy for improving crop productivity and resilience.

The Biology, Ecology, Distribution and Management of Two Globally Invasive Weeds: Calotropis procera (Calotrope) and Calotropis gigantea (Giant Calotrope)

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Calotropis procera and C. gigantea are emerging as globally invasive plants that can significantly alter ecosystems in areas where they have escaped from attended cultivation. Without effective management, these species can form dense monospecific stands, resulting in severe economic, environmental and social impacts.
