Developing perennial upland rice. II: Field performance of S1 families from an intermated Oryza sativa/O. longistaminata population

open access: yes
In Southeast Asia, upland rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an annual crop that is typically cultivated on hilly sites, contributing to the erosion of soil and the degradation of watersheds.

Land Reforms in Cuba: First Empirical Assessment on Productivity Using Crop‐Level Panel Data

open access: yesEconomics of Transition and Institutional Change, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 573-585, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Land reforms implemented in Cuba since 2008 have aimed to increase agricultural production by distributing state‐owned idle lands with land‐use rights. The reforms restricted farmers with the rights from cultivating perennial and capital‐intensive crops.

Forage Plant Host and Early Feeding Choices Affect Spodoptera litura Feeding, Development and Egg‐Laying

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 670-684, July 2026.
We assessed Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) performance on five common pasture plant species. Larvae consumed more dock, plantain and chicory per day than red or white clover, but with lower conversion efficiencies. Feeding on red clover reduced weights and egg laying, and lengthened development times compared with plantain.

Long‐Term Cultivation of Perennial Energy Crops Enhance Ecosystem Multifunctionality on Marginal Red Soil Without Trade‐Offs

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Switchgrass (SG) and Miscanthus (MS) boost ecosystem multifunctionality in marginal soils. Strong synergies, not trade‐offs, exist among ecosystem services under SG and MS. MS surpasses SG in provisioning and supporting services for higher multifunctionality. MS is ideal for maximizing multifunctionality, carbon sequestration, and stability.

Semi-Perennial Rice Sustains Yield and Food Safety Under Heatwaves and Beyond

open access: yes
Abstract Heatwaves threaten global rice security and challenge the United Nations’ Zero Hunger goals. Semi-perennial rice, with its ratooning ability to regrow from stubble after hot seasons, has shown potential for sustainable production.

Endophyte‐induced systemic spatial reprogramming of metabolism in Populus trichocarpa roots under drought

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 438-454, July 2026.
Summary Beneficial, facultative endophytes help plants thrive in challenging environments by altering their host's metabolism, but how these cellular scale metabolic changes propagate to the systems biology scale is unknown. In this work, we employed a high‐resolution chemical imaging approach to map metabolic changes at the Populus trichocarpa root ...

Bioactive Chemicals of Importance in Endophyte-Infected Grasses

open access: yes, 2009
Janthitrems are believed to be involved in the observed sporadic cases of AR37- infected perennial ryegrass staggers. Investigations into the role of janthitrems in perennial ryegrass staggers are difficult as isolation of the compounds from the ryegrass

Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4027-4040, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

Seismic Velocity Variations Illustrate Hydrological and Ecohydrological Processes in a Mountain Watershed

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We employ passive seismic interferometry to study seismic hydrological responses in a snowmelt‐driven, semi‐arid catchment. Seismic velocity changes (dv/v) at 2–4 Hz and 4–8 Hz are analyzed from six stations along a hillslope transect between May and November 2023 and compared to precipitation, soil moisture, and groundwater level timeseries ...

The Perennial Ryegrass GenomeZipper - targeted use of genome resources for comparative grass genomics.

open access: yes, 2013
Whole-genome sequences established for model and major crop species constitute a key resource for advanced genomic research. For outbreeding forage and turf grass species like ryegrasses (Lolium spp.), such resources are yet to be developed.
