Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 47, 24 August 2026.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Irrigation frequency and irrigation amount of micro-sprinkler irrigation mulched regulate N2O emission of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) soil

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
IntroductionThere is a limited amount of research available on how changes in soil hydrothermal cycles impact soil N2O emissions in greenhouses that use a tomato irrigation system with micro-sprinkler irrigation mulched (MSM).MethodsThis study examined the effects of different irrigation frequency (F, F1 which is every 3 days, F2 which is every 5 days,

Scaling Up of a Lightweight Aggregates System Based on Recovery Raw Materials and With Fertilisation Capacity: From Laboratory Prototype to Semi‐Industrial Production

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
Improved glass meltability enabled semi‐industrial prototyping of a residue‐derived PK fertiliser. Firing produced mechanically stable micropellets and induced partial vitrification, pore‐network reorganisation, delayed P release, but restricted K availability; 6‐month field trials on turfgrass and Photinia supported agronomic feasibility.
