How does organic agriculture contribute to food security of small land holders?: A case study in the North of Thailand

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2018
There has been a trend to encourage organic agriculture in response to improve global food security. This article investigated how organic agriculture contributed to food security of small land holders experiencing organic agriculture.

eQTL Meta‐Analysis Reveals Conserved and Population‐Specific Regulatory Variation Underlying Nutritional Trait Evolution and Domestication in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A comprehensive meta‐analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) across five diverse tomato populations reveals a high‐resolution atlas of transcriptional regulation and uncovers conserved and population‐specific regulatory architectures underlying fruit nutritional quality traits, including flavonoids, sugars, organic acids, carotenoids ...

Implications of Pea–Barley‐Mixed Cropping on Gross Margin, Root Rot Infestation, and Nitrogen Supply—A Swiss Case Study

Legume Science
A growing demand for plant‐based proteins and renewable nitrogen supplies has necessitated an intensification of legume cultivation in Europe. However, the cultivation of grain legumes is inherently exposed to various risks, including lodging and fungal ...

Fungal Microbiome Indicators Are Associated with Genotypic Variation in Pea Root Rot Susceptibility when Intercropped with Barley

Phytobiomes Journal
Intercropping of legume and cereal crop species shows potential to reduce root disease pressures by changing root-associated microbiomes and improving nitrogen (N) use via soil N-dependent fixation of atmospheric N2 by symbiotic rhizobia.

A Keratinocyte‐Mast Cell NF‐κB2/CXCL2/IL‐6 Amplification Loop Enhances Cutaneous Antifungal Defense Against C. albicans

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mast cells (MCs), key innate immune sentinels at the host–environment interface, serve as primary responders to invading pathogens. However, their specific contribution to host defense against cutaneous Candida albicans (C. albicans) infection and their synergy with other immune and non‐immune cells remain poorly understood. Here, we show that

Integration of Spatiotemporal Multi‐Omics in Peach Fruit Unravels a Metabolic Niche and the Genetic Basis of Trichome‐Mediated Stress Adaptation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first spatiotemporal multi‐omics map of peach fruit and discovered a key candidate gene that synergistically regulates trichome development and drought tolerance through the jasmonic acid signaling pathway, providing insights into the coupling mechanism between development and stress resistance.

Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.
