Peck or pass? Individual‐level testing of a bird‐repellent seed coating
Using sequential unique‐choice tests on an urban population of ringed carrion crows, we show that black pepper oleoresin‐treated maize seeds were avoided, while color alone had no deterrent effect. Abstract Background Carrion crows (Corvus corone) are a major depredating species of spring crops across European agroecosystems, especially during sowing ...

Modelling Climate Change Impact on Rice Growth and Yield in Northwest Bangladesh
ABSTRACT Assessing the impact of climate change is crucial for addressing the challenges of sustaining and increasing rice production. This study employed the APSIM model driven by climate data from 27 global climate models under SSP245 and SSP585 emission scenarios to evaluate climate change effects on irrigated and rainfed rice in three key rice ...

ABSTRACT Drought is a major abiotic stress affecting crop yields worldwide. Similarly, organic practices have been reported to enhance soil health and microbial diversity, influencing crop growth and yield. Given its drought tolerance, spelt (Triticum spelta) has been proposed as a resilient alternative to wheat (Triticum aestivum).

Welcome Pathogens: Transient Heat Dampens Immune Responses to Acibenzolar‐S‐Methyl in Apple Plants
ABSTRACT Climate change affects plant‐pathogen interactions, with disease outcome varying depending on the pathosystem and environmental scenario. In Arabidopsis, a thermo‐sensitive module of salicylic acid (SA) signalling makes immunity vulnerable to heat.
