An “undemocratic dilemma”? Overturning a ban on growing genetically modified canola
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.This paper examines the decision in 2020 to lift a 16‐year moratorium on growing genetically modified (GM) crops in South Australia. It focuses on public consultation conducted through local councils, 11 of which requested to remain GM free. The paper highlights limitations of the State Government’s review process and the decision‐making involved ...

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 732-744, May 2026.The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, is the main virus vector in sugar beet. We examine its performance on potential winter hosts as well as the host selection and overwintering success of anholicyclic aphids in order to improve forecasting models for virus outbreaks through targeted monitoring of suitable winter hosts. Abstract Virus yellows (VY) is

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT Agricultural intensification is a major driver of global arthropod declines. Habitat management strategies, such as cultivated refuge strips (CRS), can counteract these effects by enhancing biodiversity, promoting conservation biological control and improving agroecosystem resilience.

Deep roots through time and crops: insight from five seasons at DeepRootLab
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2670-2688, May 2026.Summary Deep‐rooted crops accessing water and nutrients from deep soil layers enhance the resource base for crop production. However, studying these roots in field conditions is labour‐intensive, limiting research scope. We established a field root research facility with 48 plots for replicated experiments.

Genetic Basis of UV Bullseye Size Variations in Turnip Rape (Brassica rapa subsp. oleifera)
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3189-3200, May 2026.ABSTRACT Floral ultraviolet (UV) patterns are visible to bee pollinators and can affect crop yields by impacting pollinator visitation. However, the mechanisms underlying the intraspecific variations of UV bullseye size remain largely unknown. We analyse the ecological consequences and genetic basis of floral UV bullseye size variation in an important ...

“00” Oilseed Rape Cultivars in the Process of Drying
Agriculturae Conspectus Scientificus, 2007 To provide production of biodiesel fuel agriculture is required to grow “00” oilseed rape cultivars. In continuous process of the fuel production, grown oilseed rape seed should be regularly dried and properly stored. Drying rate and drying quality of the seed depends on physical conditions of the atmosphere when drying, physical and chemical ...

Economics of spatial coexistence of genetically modified and conventional crops: Oilseed rape in Central France [PDF]
Europe is currently struggling to implement coherent coexistence regulations on genetically modified (GM) and non-GM crops in all EU Member States. We conduct simulations with the software ArcView® on a GIS dataset of a hypothetical case of GM herbicide ...
