Quantitative synthesis of the effects of drought on community composition and species interactions in terrestrial ecosystems

Oikos, EarlyView.
Droughts, increasingly frequent under human‐driven climate change, are expected to intensify globally. Both pulsed and prolonged droughts can strongly affect organismal survival and population dynamics, potentially altering terrestrial communities and ecosystems.

Activity of rhizobacteria antagonistic to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. passiflorae in soils cultivated with monocotyledonous plants

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2017
In spite of the importance of passion fruit cultivation in Brazil, this activity has been forced to be itinerant, due to the occurrence of diseases in producing regions, in particular fusariosis.

Thirty years of glyphosate‐resistant crops and weeds: Current situation and future prospects

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Since 1996, when the first glyphosate‐resistant crop was commercialized and the first resistant weed was reported, resistance has expanded globally. This review analyzes emergence patterns across weed species, crops, regions, resistance mechanisms, and herbicides.

Integrating DynamiCROP model and risk assessment for pesticide residues in spinach: Implications for food safety

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study adapted and validated the dynamiCROP model for spinach, a leafy vegetable not previously included in its standard framework. The findings confirm that model‐predicted pesticide concentrations, when integrated into hazard quotient (HQ) calculations, can effectively support dietary risk assessment.

Diflubenzuron Caused Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Ca2+ Homeostasis Disruption, and Intrinsic Apoptosis in Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diflubenzuron is used as an insect growth inhibitor, and its potential risk to human health was raised owing to the possibility of environmental residues and human exposure. This study aimed to investigate the toxic mechanism of diflubenzuron on trophoblastic cells such as HTR8/SVneo and JEG‐3 cells. We investigated mitochondrial function, Ca2+

Assessment of Oxidative Stress, Vitellogenin, and Human Health Risks Derived From Nile Tilapia Exposed to Metals and Metalloids in Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban coastal lagoons are highly vulnerable ecosystems increasingly affected by metal contamination, as well as multiple anthropogenic stressors. This study evaluated ecotoxicological and human health risks associated with chronic metal exposure in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from an anthropogenically impacted lagoon in southeastern ...

Sponges are celebrated heterotrophs but also key primary producers on changing coral reefs

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Trophic interactions and nutrient cycling lay at the heart of ecosystem health and biodiversity. In recent years, our understanding of these drivers has been repeatedly challenged by rapid and unanticipated climatic effects, combined with an increasing awareness that ...
