Digging Deep: Dynamic Programming for Optimal Routing With Double‐Deep Autonomous Mobile Robot Picking

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐tote autonomous mobile robots (MT‐AMRs) are an emerging warehousing technology in which a mobile drive unit carries a lift‐based storage‐and‐retrieval mechanism with an extendable fork and a multi‐tote onboard buffer. On autonomous picking tours, an MT‐AMR visits storage locations, extracts product totes from racks, stores them in its ...

Recycling of volcanic ash and carbide slag in blended mortars: A multi-criteria performance assessment

Environmental Challenges
A multi-criteria performance evaluation was performed to assess the physical and durability properties of cementitious composites containing volcanic ash (VA) and carbide slag (CS). The investigated mortars involved cement mass substitution by VA at 0–40

Exploring eco‐evolutionary and temporal patterns of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities colonizing Sorghum bicolor across sites of contrasting land use history and climate

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sorghum bicolor is a globally important cereal crop with annual yields exceeding 50 million tons across more than 100 countries and can be grown on marginal lands where conventional agriculture is limited. We examined how eight genetically diverse sorghum genotypes shaped arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) community assembly across two contrasting ...

Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) in Nigeria: Regional cultivation patterns, landrace diversity, and farmer knowledge for conserving a climate‐resilient indigenous cereal

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) cereals are valued for their drought resilience, adaptability to poor soils, and cultural importance. In Nigeria, where both species are cultivated, fonio has declined due to labor‐intensive processing, lower yields, and changing livelihood choices. By documenting 21 landraces (15 D. exilis and 6 D. iburua),

RNA degradomics and proteomics reveal the mechanism of dsProsβ1‐mediated proteasome targeting in Psylliodes chrysocephala

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
RNA degradomics revealed dsProsβ1‐derived siRNA‐mediated mRNA cleavage events, mainly at uracil‐guanine and adenine‐adenine pairs. Proteasome inhibition via dsProsβ1 increased mitochondrial and cytoskeletal proteins while reducing translation‐related and mRNA‐binding proteins.

Field investigation of glucosinolates and morphological traits in mitigating Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation through crop varieties and companion planting

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genotype and cropping system influenced oilseed rape ecophysiological traits, including glucosinolate compounds (glucoraphanin, glucobrassicanapin, and butyl‐glucosinolates) and biomass, which were linked to Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation, with varietal effects stronger than faba bean companion planting.

Host plant‐specific volatiles of Beauveria bassiana‐colonized plants initiate trophic plant–aphid–predator cascades

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Endophytic colonization of melon plants by B. bassiana modifies the crop volatile profiles in a genotype‐dependent manner. A predator choice is biased toward endophytically colonized plants infested with aphids revealing a guardian within effect of the fungus of great potential in integrated pest management.

Soybean induced resistance to Spodoptera eridania herbivory

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
SOD, CAT, APX, PPO, KTI, and MDA levels were higher in the resistant soybean. S. eridania herbivory increased H2O2 and MDA, but decreased SOD and PPO levels. S. eridania herbivory increased KTI activity only in the resistant variety. Isoquercitrin and daidzin were exclusive to resistant and susceptible soybeans.
