The genus Arthrocardia (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) in New Zealand: Description of three new species
Phycological Research, EarlyView.SUMMARY Three new species of the coralline algal genus Arthrocardia (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta) are described from New Zealand: A. meridionalis, A. perplexa, and A. robusta. These species are difficult to distinguish based on morphoanatomical characters alone and require molecular sequence data for reliable identification.

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.Reduced bioaccumulation of PQ and GLY by saffron extract in Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) tissues Abstract Herbicides such as paraquat (PQ) and glyphosate (GLY) pose ecological and public health risks because of their persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity to aquatic organisms. This study evaluated whether aqueous saffron extract (Crocus sativus L.)

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.ABSTRACT Olive tree leaves are phytochemically rich yet insufficiently valorised in terms of systematic cultivar‐based characterisation and exploitation, and are an abundant olive industry side‐product. This study represents the first large‐scale metabolome mapping based on 340 leaf extracts from five major Greek cultivars (Amfissis, Koroneiki, Manaki,

Utilizing high‐throughput phenotyping to identify metribuzin tolerance in winter wheat
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Plant breeders and weed scientists address weed management collaboratively by selecting for herbicide tolerance in breeding programs. Metribuzin, a Group 5 PSII‐inhibiting herbicide, is labeled for use in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, application to currently available lines results in frequent, variable, and unpredictable crop injury.

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Water scarcity is a major threat to crop production and quality. Improving drought tolerance through variety selection requires a deeper understanding of plant ecophysiological responses, but large‐scale phenotyping remains a bottleneck. This study assessed the potential of high‐throughput tools (spectroscopy and poro‐fluorometry) to predict ...
