Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

Discovery of murayaquinone from an endophytic bacterium Streptomyces sp. AN140557 as a potent inhibitor of the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1765-1775, February 2026.
Murayaquinone isolated from the pine endophyte Streptomyces sp. AN140557 exhibits potent, dose‐dependent nematicidal activity and egg‐hatching inhibition against the pine wood nematode. It effectively inhibited pine wilt disease in greenhouse tests, suggesting potential as a promising biocontrol agent.

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-194, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Histological Analysis for Mechanism of Pine Wilt Disease.

Journal of the Japanese Forest Society, 2006
マツ材線虫病に感染した宿主樹木は, さまざまな組織学的変化を示す。病原線虫感染後まもなく, 侵入した線虫の移動経路となる樹脂道においてエピセリウム細胞の破壊がみられる。また木部放射柔細胞においては, 細胞内容物にさまざまな異常がみられ, 病徴が進展すると内容物が細胞外に漏出し, 周辺仮道管および有縁壁孔に沈着する。皮層樹脂道周囲ではリグニン化およびスベリン化がみられる。抵抗性樹種と感受性樹種における病徴を比較すると, 前者においては感染後木部柔細胞の組織化学的変化があまり認められないこと, および変化が線虫侵入部位に限定されることが特徴である。また, 弱病原性マツノザイセンチュウやニセマツノザイセンチュウを接種した場合も, 線虫分布や病変が接種点付近に限られる ...
