Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Equipped for success: genomes and metabolomes of the European Amanita muscaria are conserved in its novel South African range

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1863-1883, May 2026.
Summary Plants and soils have been moved around the world for centuries, but invasive mushrooms receive scant attention. The Amanita muscaria species complex was introduced to South Africa in the context of forestry, but its origins, ecology and recent evolution are unstudied. We sequenced the genomes of 24 Northern and Southern Hemisphere A. muscaria,
