Conservation Management Strategies Shape Glucocorticoid Levels in African Elephant Populations More Than Parasite Load

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Understanding the factors influencing physiological stress is essential for interpreting how wildlife responds to contrasting environmental and management conditions. Across 19 South African elephant populations, we found that smaller reserves, self‐drive tourism, and high elephant density under low vegetation productivity were associated with elevated

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.

Multi‐year occupancy and habitat use in a threatened butterfly reintroduced onto a restored peatland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of insect species reintroductions are unsuccessful, frequently because of insufficient habitat resources and a knowledge‐gap regarding the target species habitat requirements. Multi‐season occupancy models, seldom used with invertebrates, offer the opportunity to disentangle the effects of habitat suitability and ...

Climate benefits of wetland restoration are constrained by slow vegetation recovery

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Wetland restoration is widely used to enhance ecosystem resilience, biodiversity, and climate mitigation. However, restoring hydrology may not lead to rapid vegetation establishment or reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in severely degraded wetlands.

High Temperatures and Rural Household Expenditure: Evidence From Longitudinal Data in Colombia

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of rising temperature on rural household expenditure in Colombia by combining high‐resolution gridded weather data with a rich longitudinal household survey. Our results show that a one‐standard‐deviation increase in average daily temperature during the rainy months significantly reduces rural household ...

Rolling after the application of a contact fungicide does not reduce efficacy on putting greens

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Golf course superintendents are often challenged by labor shortages and must find creative ways to complete maintenance tasks, such as rolling putting greens immediately after a fungicide application, before golfers arrive. However, there is concern that rolling immediately after a fungicide application could reduce its efficacy. The objective

Temporal genetic relationships between growth, development, and malting quality in winter barley (Hordeum vulgare) using aerial imagery

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Grain characteristics are the cumulative product of growth and development throughout the growing season. In barley (Hordeum vulgare), these traits determine the grain's value for malting purposes. The ability to accurately predict the genetic merit for malting quality is of great interest for barley breeding programs. Same‐season selection on

Utilizing high‐throughput phenotyping to identify metribuzin tolerance in winter wheat

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Plant breeders and weed scientists address weed management collaboratively by selecting for herbicide tolerance in breeding programs. Metribuzin, a Group 5 PSII‐inhibiting herbicide, is labeled for use in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, application to currently available lines results in frequent, variable, and unpredictable crop injury.

Artificial intelligence‐powered plant phenomics: Progress, challenges, and opportunities

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI), a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is being rapidly integrated into plant phenomics to automate sensing, accelerate data analysis, and support decision‐making in phenomic prediction and genomic selection.
