Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2982-3000, September 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The impacts of elevated surface ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B) on ecological processes, such as anti‐herbivore defence in plants, remain poorly understood. Many cereal crops depend on accumulating silicon (Si) in their tissues to resist insect herbivory.

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is a major way to reduce the carbon footprint of concrete. Mechanochemical activation (MCA) can be used to activate inert materials that can then be used as SCMs. In this study, the effect of MCA using a planetary ball mill was investigated for 16 materials, ranging from natural occurring ...

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 478-488, September 2026.Mortality for diatomaceous earth was observed as early as 2 h after exposure with 50% and 90% mortality at 3.5 and 4.6 h (LT50 and LT90, respectively) for Musca domestica. The LT50 and LT90 increased when the size of the fly species increased (M. domestica to Cochliomyia macellaria to Sarcophaga bullata) and increased for all three from 50 to 70 ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6296-6310, September 2026.ABSTRACT Heatwaves are intensifying worldwide, often coinciding with high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and soil drought. Yet, how temperate tree species tolerate these combined stresses remains elusive. Using single‐tree gas‐exchange chambers, we examined the response of leaf gas exchange and thermoregulation of three broadleaved tree species to a ...

Nitric Oxide and Phytohormone Crosstalk Mediates Soybean Growth and Defence Against Aphis glycines
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 5, September/October 2026.ABSTRACT Aphid infestation, particularly by Aphis glycines, poses a major threat to soybean (Glycine max) production, necessitating sustainable defence strategies. This study evaluated the role of nitric oxide (NO) donor S‐nitrosocysteine (CySNO) in enhancing soybean resistance to aphids through hormonal crosstalk.
