Relationship between food quality and body size of common vole in different habitats

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5206-5215, June 2026.
The body size of the common vole in crop fields (alfalfa, rape, cereals) is larger than in less‐cultivated habitats (forests, clearings, set‐aside) and is not related to food quality. Abstract BACKGROUND There is a close relationship between habitat, food and demographic parameters of common vole populations.

Colonization and spatiotemporal distribution of bruchid pests in lentil and faba bean fields

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5780-5794, June 2026.
This study of 104 fields identifies Bruchus signaticornis in lentils and B. rufimanus in faba beans as the sole grain‐damaging species. Their uniform distribution within fields and the strong effect of regulatory factors on larvae and egg survival emphasize the need for species‐specific, phenology‐based and spatially informed integrated pest management

Biological Pesticides as Viable Alternative to Synthetic Pesticides for Sustainable Agriculture and Nutrition: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The overuse of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has raised significant environmental and health concerns. Biopesticides have emerged as viable, environmentally compatible alternatives. However, recent comprehensive reviews integrating all biopesticide categories and emphasizing their contribution to synthetic‐pesticide‐free and health‐safe ...

Agronomic and Environmental Benefits of Recovered Gypsum for Sulfur Fertilization in Camelina for Biofuel Production

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.
Camelina sativa, a low‐input oilseed for biofuel production, was evaluated under different sulfur fertilization strategies using recycled gypsum as a S‐source. Adding a moderate sulfur supply (40 kg ha−1) to regular nitrogen fertilization increased crop productivity and reduced environmental impacts, including emissions associated with iLUC, supporting

Molecular studies of Arabidopsis and Brassica with focus on resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Blackleg caused by Leptosphaeria maculans is a widespread fungal disease on B~assica napus (oilseed rape). In contrast, Arabidopsis thaliana and B. nigra are in general highly resistant. This study presents results from genomic interaction between the A.

An integrated social and natural sciences case study for the reuse of organic wastes as soil amendments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 965-982, May 2026.
Reusing organic waste materials, such as animal manure, as soil amendments reduces water and fertiliser demand, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, organic wastes may contain contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), posing potential ecosystem and human health risks. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack

Insect pollination of oilseed rape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ecological intensification of agriculture is suggested as a way to reach higher crop yields without increasing inputs that may degrade the environment. Increased insect pollination in crops, such as oilseed rape, Brassica napus, has been suggested to increase yields, but is rarely integrated in crop management.

Influence of Root‐Applied Glutathione on Nickel Uptake and Distribution in Brassica Roots

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study indicates that exogenous glutathione (GSH) applied to the roots inhibits nickel (Ni) uptake and its translocation to the shoots in hydroponically grown Brassica napus. Micro‐PIXE imaging further revealed that GSH reduces Ni accumulation near the stele, indicating inhibition of Ni radial transport toward the vascular tissues.

Genomic Loci for Sclerotinia Stem Rot Resistance and Chlorophyll Stability in Brassica napus: Integrating GWAS With Microbiome Insights

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions
Sclerotinia Stem Rot (SSR) disease is one of the most serious diseases affecting the yield and quality of oilseed rape (Brassica napus). Understanding the genetic basis of the resistance trait in oilseed rape to SSR and microbiome composition for ...
