Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

Plant and soil biodiversity reveals past and potential future states of naturally regenerating and planted native forests

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest restoration can be achieved by promoting natural regeneration or planting tree seedlings, but the relative benefits of these widely used approaches are questioned. Soil communities may influence restoration outcomes but are usually ignored by monitoring schemes.

Peanut response following soybean grown full‐season or double‐cropped after wheat in North Carolina

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Including soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in the previous cropping cycle can adversely affect peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yield by increasing disease incidence and populations of plant‐parasitic nematodes in the soil. The impact of double‐cropping wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and soybean versus full‐season soybean (referred to as the soybean

From Infestation to Recovery: Evaluating Changes in Livelihoods and Fishing Productivity Following the Biocontrol of Kariba Weed Along Kyoga Basin Lakes and Kibimba Dam

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The invasive kariba weed (Salvinia molesta) has severely degraded aquatic ecosystems in Uganda's Kyoga basin lakes and Kibimba Dam, disrupting fisheries, navigation and community livelihoods. Between 2017 and 2021, the National Agricultural Research Organisation implemented a biological control program using the host‐specific weevil ...

Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 346-367, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.
