The pisum model

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 1984
Connected with the centennial anniversary of the death of Gregor Mendel, an important achievement of Pisum genetics is briefly discussed: the Pea Model proposed by S. Blixt and J.T. Williams (1982) for use in computerised documentation of plant genetic resources.

Evaluating the Adapt‐N model for dynamic nitrogen recommendation in Brazilian maize (Zea mays L.) systems

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Several nitrogen rate recommendation methods have been developed to help farmers fertilize close to the economic optimum N rate (EONR). The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate a dynamic method (Adapt‐N) for N rate recommendations for maize (Zea mays L.) in Brazil relative to EONRs determined specifically for each trial and (ii ...

Transcriptomic and DNA Methylation Profiles of Alternative Aphid Morphs and Genotypes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Graph showing the correlation between differentially expressed genes and differentially methylated genes. There is no correlation between gene expression and DNA methylation level in pea aphid polyphenism. ABSTRACT Pea aphids can develop alternative morphs when exposed to stressful conditions, showing differences between genotypes in their stress ...

Green Proteins: A Sustainable Alternative to Animal‐Based Proteins for Global Protein Security

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study highlights the drawbacks associated with animal‐based proteins, such as their contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, large‐scale land use, and worsening food insecurity. It suggests that green sources of proteins, including legumes, grains, seeds, leaves, and algae, are possible sustainable alternatives. Shifting towards these plant‐based

Enhancing soil health through no‐till, cover crops, and compost: A 5‐year field study

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract The capacity of soil management systems to conserve and promote soil health is crucial for its sustainability. While the effects of individual soil management practices on soil health receive considerable attention, their combined effects remain understudied. This paper presents the results of a 5‐year field experiment designed to evaluate the

A new approach for rapid measurement of directional root responses to neighbours using the root centroid

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1628-1640, May 2026.
Abstract Measuring directional root placement is critical for understanding plant responses to their below‐ground environment, and particularly their competing neighbours. Directional root placement is commonly measured using image analysis of roots growing in transparent pots (rhizoboxes), where the length of the root system of the target plants is ...

The Australian Crop Mirid, Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae): Lifecycle, Agricultural Impact and Management

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Australian Crop Mirid (ACM), Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae), is highly polyphagous and is endemic to Australia. It is widely distributed across Australia and New Zealand and feeds on a wide range of agricultural crops. ACM has traditionally been a pest of forage crops and legumes but has recently emerged as a key pest of several

Preliminary Functional Group Patterns of Arthropods in a Maize Field and Adjacent Cultivated Refuge Strip in South Africa

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural intensification is a major driver of global arthropod declines. Habitat management strategies, such as cultivated refuge strips (CRS), can counteract these effects by enhancing biodiversity, promoting conservation biological control and improving agroecosystem resilience.

Living by the lake: Plant food diversity in a prehistoric lake‐dwelling community in the Republic of North Macedonia

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S2, Page S47-S68, May 2026.
Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...
