From quantity to quality: the evolution of forest restoration in the United Kingdom

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over the past century, forest cover in the United Kingdom has increased threefold. However, the pathways, achievements, and shortcomings of this expansion remain underexplored. Objectives This study analyses the drivers, implementation, and legacies of forest restoration in the United Kingdom before and after 1990, which is when ...

Evaluation of tillage and cover cropping systems on the overwintering of angular leaf spot, yield, and quality in dark tobacco

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Angular leaf spot (ALS; Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci) has become an increasingly important disease in dark tobacco [Nicotiana tabacum L.] production since 2015. Current recommendations for controlling ALS include selecting dark tobacco varieties with low ALS susceptibility and using agricultural streptomycin.

Seed Storage Conditions for Zostera muelleri Restoration: Effects of Temperature, Salinity and Sterilisation on Seed Contamination, Viability and Seedling Emergence

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
The decline of seagrass meadows is a continuing global concern, and seed‐based restoration provides a scalable approach to recovering lost and degraded meadows. Such approaches require large quantities of seed to be collected, processed, and often stored for months until deployment.

Transformation of Phytophthora cinnamomi with the green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) for studies on survival [PDF]

, 2005
For soilborne plant pathogens such as Phytophthora cinnamomi, differentiating between spores of P. cinnamomi and other similar microorganisms can be challenging, making it difficult to determine the form the pathogen survives in soils and host tissue ...

Glucan synthase of Phytophthora sojae [PDF]

, 2002
Glucans, with the (1-3)-b-glucosidic linkage as major feature, are present in most of the higher plants, in many lower plants, as well as in microorganisms (Stone and Clarke, 1992). The synthesis of (1-3)-b-glucan in vivo is catalysed by the enzyme (1-3)-

From Prototype to Sustainable Food Production: Translational Barriers and Design Priorities for Agricultural Biosensing Systems

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural biosensors could advance sustainable food production by enabling timely detection of crop stress, pathogens, nutrient imbalances, and environmental contaminants. Despite decades of research, however, robust commercial biosensing platforms remain uncommon because analytical performance under controlled conditions does not ...

Association mapping and genome prediction reveal a complex genetic architecture for resistance to black and frosty pod rot in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) populations

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) production is severely constrained by black pod rot (BPR) and frosty pod rot (FPR), two major diseases that cause substantial yield losses across the tropics. Breeding for disease resistance remains challenging due to long generation intervals and the complex genetic control of disease responses. Here, we used genome‐

Susceptibility of Australian plant species to Phytophthora ramorum [PDF]

, 2008
Phytophthora ramorum is an invasive plant pathogen causing considerable and widespread damage in nurseries, gardens and natural woodland ecosystems of the USA and Europe and is classified as a Category 1 pest in Australia. It is of particular interest to

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 11, Page 2821-2855, November 2026.
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.
