Cotton rotation with single and multispecies cover crops affects yield, quality, and economic outcomes

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Cover crops (CCs) have gained popularity in continuous crop production systems due to their agroecosystem benefits. This study evaluated the effects of nine CC treatments (single or multispecies) and no cover crop (noCC) on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth characteristics, production, and economic returns in the Mid‐South United States ...

Yield and yield‐driving physiological traits under different nitrogen rates and mepiquat chloride strategies in cotton

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract The interactive effects of nitrogen (N) and mepiquat chloride (MC) on yield and key physiological traits have received limited attention in the primary literature. This study was aimed to (1) evaluate the effects of N rate and MC application strategy on yield‐altering physiological processes, lint yield, and fiber quality and (2) quantify ...

Quantifying the effects of irrigation, nitrogen application rate, and plant growth management on seed characteristics and seed component yields in cotton

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth and production are affected by irrigation management approaches, nitrogen (N) application rates, and plant growth regulation strategies. However, their combined effects on cotton seed composition and yield remain understudied.

Investigation of Potential Risks in Bio‐Based Food Contact Materials (FCMs) From Microbial Exploitation of Agricultural Wastes: Case Studies of Bacterial Cellulose and Nisin

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the context of the circular economy and the increasing demand for safe and sustainable packaging, this work addresses the safety assessment of food contact materials (FCMs) derived from agro‐industrial by‐products. Despite growing interest in these bio‐based materials, the literature still lacks a structured safety‐assessment framework able

The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority publishes an annual report assessing pesticide residue levels in food. In 2024, 9842 samples were analysed as part of the EU‐coordinated multiannual control programme subset, of which 1.2% were found to be non‐compliant.

Biochemical and metabolic responses of cotton variety XLZ54 to Thrips tabaci and screening of resistance characterization indicators

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1656-1667, February 2026.
Cotton varieties resistant to Thrips tabaci exhibit lower soluble sugar and free amino acid levels, with smaller post‐infestation increases in these nutrients, resulting in reduced feeding rates and lighter damage. Key resistance evaluation indices include: damage severity, soluble sugars, free amino acids, soluble proteins, superoxide dismutase ...

The optimization of crop response to climatic stress through modulation of plant stress response mechanisms. Opportunities for biostimulants and plant hormones to meet climate challenges.

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 130-151, January 2026.
Summary This review discusses the use of agronomic management practices to enhance crop stress resilience to climate stress through the modulation of natural plant growth regulatory pathways. The use of biostimulants or plant hormones to improve crop resilience is subject to strict regulatory oversight if changes in the regulation of plant growth are ...
