Mechanisms Explaining Increasing Soil Water Repellency With Water Content Below the Permanent Wilting Point: A Review

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 5, September–October 2026.
This review synthesises evidence from surface science, soil physics and interfacial water studies into a coherent mechanistic framework, proposing that evolving interfacial water hydration underpins increasing soil water repellency with increasing soil water content below the permanent wilting point.

Physiological and Morphological Responses of Soybean to Water Stress and Rehydration: Implications for Growth, Seed Yield and Quality

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid stomatal regulation is an early response associated with improved maintenance of leaf water status and post‐stress recovery in soybean, but it cannot fully offset the detrimental effects of severe drought on seed production. This study evaluated the physiological and morphological responses of soybean genotypes to progressive water ...

The effect of amorphous silica on soil–plant–water relations in soils with contrasting textures

Scientific Reports
This study investigates how amorphous silica (ASi) influences soil–plant–water interactions in distinct soil textures. A sandy loam and silty clay soil were mixed with 0 and 2% ASi, and their impact on soil retention and soil hydraulic conductivity ...

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1102-1114, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

PROPIEDADES HIDRAULICASL DEL UN NITISOL EN KABETE, KENYA

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2012
Water relations are among the most important physical phenomena that affect the use of soils for agricultural, ecological, environmental, and engineering purposes. To formulate soil-water relationships, soil hydraulic properties are required as essential

Coping with inauthenticity: A social interaction perspective linking daily surface acting with deliberate drinking after work

Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, Volume 99, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Alcohol use is costly for individual health and organizational competitiveness and is prevalent in jobs where employees regulate their emotions. While this suggests a link between emotional labour and alcohol consumption, prior work adopting a self‐control lens has found mixed results.

Exploring the Mechanisms of the Soil Moisture‐Air Temperature Hypersensitive Coupling Regime

Water Resources Research
High temperature extremes accompanied by drought have led to serious ramifications for environmental and socio‐economic systems. Thus, improving the predictability of heat‐wave events is a high priority.

Maximum water stress is decoupled from climate, traits, and growth in a xeric oak

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2392-2406, September 2026.
We sampled sites across the geographic distribution of blue oak (Quercus douglasii) in California, USA, which spans a large range of mean annual precipitation. Summary Our ability to explain and predict the spatial patterns of forest mortality remains limited.

A drought stress‐induced MYB transcription factor regulates pavement cell shape in leaves of European aspen (Populus tremula)

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2688-2705, September 2026.
MYB305a promoter expression increases in pavement cells as they grow and acquire their complex shape. Summary Leaf pavement cells of many plant species develop jigsaw puzzle‐like shapes in which neighboring cells interdigitate, providing an ideal model for the study of cell shape regulation.

Systemic acquired resistance: an emerging role for jasmonates in local signal biogenesis, translocation and distal signal decoding

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3142-3158, September 2026.
Jasmonate signalling underpins establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Activation of the hypersensitive response (HR) not only contains the pathogen but establishes broad spectrum resistance in unchallenged leaves. The strong burst of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species initiating the HR results in lipid peroxidation (illustrated by ...
