The impacts of woody encroachment on nature's contributions to people in North America and Africa: A systematic review

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Woody encroachment is affecting nature's contributions to people (NCP) in grassy ecosystems around the world, but these impacts have not yet been well summarised. Moreover, the impacts of encroachment are likely to vary depending on the historical ecosystem dynamics, climatic conditions, encroacher species, and the temporal, spatial, cultural ...

Metabolite Screening From Pinus pinea Needles Reveals (+)‐Isocupressic Acid as a Key Phytotoxin for Weed Management

open access: yesPhytochemical Analysis, EarlyView.
This study explores the phytotoxicity of Pinus pinea needle extracts and metabolites to evaluate their potential for controlling dicotyledonous weeds. A strategy based on GC–MS, NMR, and optical methods revealed an array of aromatic compounds which are of crucial interest for phytochemical research. Hence, a bio‐guided purification led to the isolation

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Variability in apple fruit quality across management systems and latitudinal climate gradients

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As the world transitions to more sustainable agricultural practices to combat environmental damage, it is important to investigate how different management systems shape the quality and nutrition of our crops. We analyzed apples from paired organic and conventional sites across the western United States.

Synthesizing current knowledge on the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of Vaccinium membranaceum

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
More than 100 edible native berries grow across Canada's vast territory and are used by over 600 Indigenous Peoples of Canada as a main component of their diet. This research provides critical insights into the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of black huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum), a species of significant ecological and cultural importance ...

Understanding Pollination in Urban Food Production: The Importance of Data Validation and Participant Feedback for Citizen Science Project Design

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Urban agriculture depends on insect pollination, but knowledge gaps persist due to difficulties accessing diverse growing spaces. We developed a citizen science approach for monitoring insect visits to crops and compared grower‐collected data to that of a trained researcher while also gathering participant feedback.
