Regulatory Framework and Public Policies for Sustainability in the Construction Sector

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 3229-3248, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes the role of public policies in promoting socially responsible practices in the construction sector, with a particular focus on their contribution to climate neutrality and the decarbonization of the building stock. European agreements exert increasing pressure to transform the construction sector, reinforcing the transition

Integrative genomic analyses reveal candidate genes for the Ur‐3 and Ur‐7 rust resistance loci in common bean

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Bean rust, caused by Uromyces appendiculatus, severely limits the productivity of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), an essential source of protein and micronutrients in human diets worldwide. Durable disease management relies primarily on host resistance; however, the molecular architecture of several key rust resistance loci remains ...

The Role of Amplicon Length and Total DNA Length in Synthetic DNA Tracer Degradation and Adsorption During Transport Through Sand

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Synthetic DNA tracers are increasingly used in subsurface hydrological studies because their large sequence diversity enables the design of numerous uniquely identifiable tracers. However, previous studies have not isolated how amplicon length, flanking region length, and total DNA length independently control tracer degradation and adsorption

Structural Recovery of Overlooked Shrublands Drives Asymmetric Restoration in Dryland Ecosystems

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Current remote sensing of dryland ecosystems is fundamentally limited by a reliance on vegetation indices (“greenness”), which struggle to disentangle mixed pixel signals and fail to capture the non‐photosynthetic structural components critical for resilience.
