Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.The small cyclic peptide CP32 effectively inhibits Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato and tomato late blight. Combined biochemical and phenotypic analyses demonstrate that CP32 disrupts cell wall biosynthesis, a key process in pathogen infection, resulting in a marked reduction of disease symptoms in plants.

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Academic Summary Despite growing attention to responsible innovation, extant research offers limited guidance for how firms should organize to ensure responsibility during emerging technology (ET) commercialization, a process for which the societal consequences reflect both market pressures and uncertainty. This research introduces Responsible

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Shergottites are the most abundant meteorites from Mars and a major source of information on magma reservoirs, transport, and eruption, particularly in the late Hesperian northern hemisphere. Conflicting interpretations have arisen on the crystallization conditions of pyroxene in olivine‐phyric shergottites.

Multiplexed Nanosensors for Real‐Time Monitoring of VOC‐Mediated Signalling Response in Plants
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To enhance crop performance, intercropping strategies leverage volatile organic compound (VOC)‐driven interactions with companion plants that constitutively emit VOCs. Despite the agricultural importance, the mechanisms and kinetics of VOC‐mediated sensory transduction in receiver plants eavesdropping on neighbouring non‐kin emitters remain ...

On-Target Deposition from Two Engine-Powered Sprayers in Medium-Foliage-Density Citrus Canopies
AgronomySpray penetration into citrus canopies is critical for adequate coverage and deposition to ensure effective pest control. However, mismatch of air assistance to target canopy characteristics can lead to unintended spraying losses through overpenetration.
