Growth Response of Crop Legumes to Soil Microbiota Is Linked With Soil Nutrients and Planting History

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbiota provide essential services to plants, but predicting or manipulating these benefits is difficult. Here, we investigated microbial benefits to legume crops at a landscape level to uncover factors that predict those services and can be modified by growers.

Insecticide‐level pest control provided by in‐field flower strips

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our findings indicate that in‐field flower strips or derived legume‐based intercropping systems can help reduce reliance on pesticide use in agriculture. Abstract Biodiversity in agricultural landscapes has declined significantly due to intensified farming practices, underscoring the need for sustainable pest management.

Eco‐Microbiology: A Frugal‐Circular Framework for Biosafe, Low‐Cost Practical Microbiology in Secondary Education

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 4, April 2026.
Eco‐Microbiology: a frugal‐circular pedagogical framework for biosafe, low‐cost, low‐impact microbiology in secondary education—This graphical abstract summarises the Eco‐Microbiology framework, which integrates frugality as a behavioural and design principle (minimal extraction, maximal conservation and upstream waste prevention) alongside biosafety ...

Taste Preferences Shape Disease Susceptibility via Heritable Nutrient Predispositions: A Behavior–Gene Coevolution Framework

Genes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 25, Issue 2, April 2026.
Environmental selection pressures, consistent with the evolutionary principle of survival of the fittest, shaped ancestral dietary behavior and taste preferences; intergenerational adaptations along the brain–gut axis, together with genetic polymorphisms, have left an imprint on tendencies to enrich or clear particular nutrients.

Endocrine Disruptive Effects of the Herbicides Linuron, Chloridazon and Metribuzin on Bovine Granulosa Cells

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Linuron, chloridazon and metribuzin are herbicides thought to have potential endocrine disruption (ED) effects. This study investigated the effects of linuron, chloridazon and metribuzin on bovine granulosa cell viability and oestrogen (E2) and progesterone (P4) secretion in vitro.

Artificial soil (ArtSoil): Recreating soil conditions in synthetic plant growth media

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
SUMMARY Controlled plant growth in laboratories can be achieved by cultivating plants under sterile or axenic conditions on predefined synthetic growth media, typically supplemented with sugar. In nature, plants do not receive exogenous sugar supplies, form symbiosis with microbes, and plant growth is influenced by soil edaphic factors.
