Early Contributions Leading to Understanding the Significance of Epichloë Endophyte in Temperate Grasses

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 5, October 2026.
The role and use of Epichloë fungal endophytes in grazed temperate grass pastures and turf grasses are now well understood with regard to balancing pasture persistence while minimising animal health and welfare concerns. However, this understanding has only emerged since the early 1980s. Prior to this, although links between Epichloë endophytes, animal

Nanopriming and Nanocoating as a Next‐Generation Seed Treatment for Enhanced Plant Growth and Pathogen Resistance

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT In pursuit of sustainable agriculture, current strategies continue to explore environmentally friendly inputs that promote plant development. Seed treatment is an ancient practice used to break seed dormancy and hasten germination. Although traditional seed treatments yield positive outcomes, the methods adopted raise concerns about the ...

Starch Selection in Sweet Food Systems: A Texture‐Driven Framework Across Confectionery and Dessert Matrices

open access: yesJournal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Starch functions as a key hydrocolloid shaping texture and stability in the formulation engineering of sweet foods. Sugar‐starch hydration interactions control gelatinization and rheological behavior. Modified starches enhance tolerance to heat, shear, acidity, and low moisture, and starch‐hydrocolloid blends enable tailored textures and improved shelf

Pearl millet demonstrates potential as a forage and cover crop in Wisconsin vegetable systems

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.), a crop that is recognized for heat and drought tolerance and ability to suppress root‐lesion nematode (Pratylenchus penetrans), could serve as a suitable forage and cover crop for potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and vegetable production systems in Wisconsin.
