Cacao Rootstock Selection Resistant to Ceratocystis cacaofunesta at the INIAP Germplasm Collection, Ecuador

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
The genetic improvement programme, aimed at identifying cocoa rootstocks resistant to Ceratocystis cacaofunesta, has enabled the selection of a series of genotypes with high levels of resistance within the INIAP germplasm bank. The use of improved and certified material in the clonal propagation of plants guarantees the productive life of our cocoa ...

Challenges and Opportunities for Strengthening Bottom‐Tow Fisheries Sustainability

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 987-1005, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Bottom‐tow gear fisheries (trawls and dredges) produce ~24 million mt of harvest annually, representing a globally important animal‐sourced food system. While many are currently sustainably managed, growing concern over the potential for ecosystem impacts from bottom‐tow gears has increased pressure to improve these fisheries.

Application of a D‐Optimal Mixture Design for the Development and Optimization of a Pasta Enriched With Pumpkin Products

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fortification of wheat‐based products with high‐nutritional‐value ingredients is becoming of great interest as a strategy for producing high‐quality sustainable food products. Therefore, pumpkin products such as pulp (PPU), peel (PPE), and seed (PS) were blended into wheat pasta at different proportions and combinations using D‐optimal mixture

Plants as Enrichment? The Effect of Live Plants on the Behavior and Welfare of Indoor‐Housed Titi Monkeys (Plecturocebus cupreus)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study tested whether coppery titi monkeys respond positively to plants like humans. The findings show that exposure to live plants reduced stereotypic behaviors, increased affiliative interactions—especially grooming—and attracted more visual attention, suggesting that plants may serve as effective enrichment for titi monkeys and reflect an ...
