How Alternative Management Ideas Are Realized for the Public Good: Performative Fabrics of Humanistic Practices

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Repurposing management for the public good involves realizing alternative ideas to serve societal interests. Humanistic management is centred on such ideas as human dignity and well‐being. Realization refers to the generation and maintenance of social realities corresponding to these ideas.

Carbohydrate content governs growth‐storage allocation during recovery from carbon depletion

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual framework for competing hypotheses of growth‐storage carbon allocation during recovery from carbon limitation. Summary How plants prioritize carbon (C) allocation between growth and storage remains an outstanding question, limiting predictions of forest C cycling and ecosystem resilience following periods of C limitation. To address this gap,

Humidity‐driven shape morphing enhances fog harvesting in porous cactus spines

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Spine straightening and water collection during fog exposure in Turbinicarpus alonsoi. Summary Cacti develop spines instead of conventional leaves, which often serve as mechanical defence against herbivores. However, some cactus species grow porous and flexible spines, suggesting fundamentally different functions.

Beneath the Drought: Rhizosphere Processes Shape Genotype‐Specific Sorghum Responses to Drought‐Induced N Limitation

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Droughts increasingly threaten crop productivity in nutrient‐depleted tropical soils. We investigated how water limitation influences rhizomicrobial traits (microbial biomass and functional community composition, enzyme activities) and nitrogen (N) uptake in three sorghum genotypes Makueni local (Mkl), Gadam (Gd), and IESH 22012 (IESH) under ...

Plant endemism of the Balkan high‐mountain fens: a community‐level synthesis and their climate change perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

A Natural History of ‘Annoyances’: Knowing Weeds and Weeding Knowledge in the Early Royal Society and its ‘Georgicall Committee’

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seventeenth‐century virtuosi often figured themselves as epistemic weeders, grubbing up rank thickets of accumulated error. In this article, I argue that these metaphors were unnerved by the shifting status of weeds—ostensibly unwanted plants from the margins of cultivated space, unploughed land or the disturbed soils between growing crops—in ...
