Tiny but mighty? Overview of a decade of research on nectar bacteria
Summary An emerging focus of research at the intersection of botany, zoology, and microbiology is the study of floral nectar as a microbial habitat, referred to as the nectar microbiome, which can alter plant–pollinator interactions. Studies on these microbial communities have primarily focused on yeasts, and it was only about a decade ago that ...

Using red–green–blue vegetation indices to evaluate complex agronomical traits in soybean breeding
Abstract High‐throughput phenotyping is an emerging tool that allows access to identify simple and complex traits, accelerating genetic discoveries and selection. Vegetation indices strongly correlate with several economic crop traits, allowing plant breeders to detect variation in breeding populations.
