Tropical surface gold mining: A review of ecological impacts and restoration strategies
Land Degradation &Development, Volume 33, Issue 18, Page 3661-3674, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Surface gold mining severely degrades landscapes, causing deforestation, soil erosion and displacement, and toxic contamination. The prevalence of both large‐scale and artisanal, small‐scale surface gold mining in the tropics has risen over recent decades.

Evaluation of adjuvants for reducing the risk of phytotoxicity in low-volume spray of propiconazole
Phytopathology Research, 2023 Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been increasingly employed for fungicide applications in plant disease control. However, due to weight limitations, the fungicides sprayed through UAVs must be in low volumes with high concentrations in many instances,

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 3-15, January 2023., 2023 Botrytis cinerea mutants lacking both Dicer‐like genes displayed a >99% reduction of transposable element‐derived small RNA (sRNA) production, but were not reduced in virulence, indicating redundancy of sRNAs in fungal virulence. Abstract Plant immune responses are triggered during the interaction with pathogens.
