Identification of resistance sources and genomic regions regulating spot blotch resistance in Asian bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) via genome‐wide association study

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Spot blotch (SB), caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana, is a major yield‐limiting disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in the warm, humid agroclimatic zones of South Asia. The development of resistant cultivars through molecular approaches offers a sustainable strategy for managing this disease.

Spontaneous Strategies Used During Novel Word Learning

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 357-390, June 2026.
Abstract This online study examined spontaneous strategies of English‐speaking adults during associative word learning, the relationship of these strategies with learning outcomes and within‐task evolution of strategy use. Participants were to learn to name 14 object–pseudoword pairs across five successive encoding/recall blocks, followed by delayed ...

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 425-453, June 2026.
Abstract The study examined the mediation model of socioeconomic status (SES) and executive function (EF) on reading abilities in Chinese (as first language, L1) and English (as second language, L2) in 260 native Cantonese‐speaking students (146 boys) from Hong Kong local primary schools with the mean age at 111.3 months (range = 98–132 months).

Eye Movements, Item Modality, and Multimodal Second Language Vocabulary Learning: Processing and Outcomes

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 528-564, June 2026.
Abstract This study examined second language vocabulary processing and learning in reading only (RO) versus reading while listening (RWL). 119 English learners read or read‐while‐listening to a story embedded with 25 pseudowords, 10 times each, and had their eye movements tracked.

Language discrimination by newborns: Teasing apart phonotactic, rhythmic, and intonational cues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Speech rhythm has long been claimed to be a useful bootstrapping cue in the very first steps of language acquisition. Previous studies have suggested that newborn infants do categorize varieties of speech rhythm, as demonstrated by their ability to ...

Exploring the Potential of Extramural English in the Development of Implicit, Automatized, and Explicit Knowledge of Grammar

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 597-632, June 2026.
Abstract A key debate in second language acquisition research revolves around the relative significance of explicit and implicit learning conditions in grammar learning. However, little is known about the potential of learners’ extramural (i.e., out‐of‐class) language use in fostering implicit and/or automatized knowledge as compared to explicit ...

Children's Foreign Word Recognition at First Exposure: The Role of Phonological Similarity and Utterance Position

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 565-596, June 2026.
Abstract The current study examined how children apply their phonological knowledge to recognize translation equivalents in a foreign language. Target words for recognition were either phonologically similar (cognate) or dissimilar (noncognate) to words they already knew in their first language.

Learning and distraction: Evidence for cognitive load interference in medical education

open access: yesMedical Education, Volume 60, Issue 6, Page 676-684, June 2026.
Abstract Background Distraction may increase cognitive load. Cues may decrease it. But what happens if we cue in distracted learning environments? Does effective instruction buffer against the detrimental effects of distraction? Methods In a 2 × 2 factorial experiment, 117 s–year medical students without prior knowledge watched a standardised ...
