Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 12, Page 2540-2549, December 2023., 2023 Providing sufficient pollen and nectar resources to support wild pollinators over extended periods in agricultural landscapes can contribute to crop pollination and ensure high fruit weight and quality. This can be achieved by restoring natural and semi‐natural areas near crop fields with native, long‐flowering plant species.

Ecological and evolutionary effects of crop diversity decrease yield variability
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 6, Page 1242-1253, June 2023., 2023 Results highlight the ecological and evolutionary role of plant interactions in crop mixtures, which can affect yield stability, while also reflecting on the importance of climate and resource availability in modifying the diversity‐stability relationship.

Multiple compensatory mutations contribute to the de‐domestication of Iberian weedy rice
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 499-510, September 2022., 2022 Weedy plants are a major constraint on agricultural productivity. Weedy rice, a weedy type of rice, invades rice fields worldwide and is responsible for reductions in rice yields. Studies to date have detected multiple independent weedy rice origins in different parts of the world.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 9, Page 2386-2397, September 2022., 2022 The implementation of flower strips or maintenance of remnant semi‐natural habitats adjacent to sunflower fields showed context‐dependent effects on pollinator visitation rates and crop yield. In highly simplified agroecosystems, these interventions may be insufficient or may need longer times to produce significant effects.

Engineering compact Physalis peruviana (goldenberry) to promote its potential as a global crop
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1550-1556, September 2026.Goldenberry (Physalis peruviana) produces sweet, nutritionally rich berries, yet like many minor crops, is cultivated in limited geographical regions and has not been a focus of breeding programs for trait enhancement. Leveraging knowledge of plant architecture‐related traits from related species, we used CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated gene editing to generate a

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 226, Issue 1, September 2026.We estimated seasonal space use, cover selection, and resource selection; evaluated gene flow and potential genetic barriers; and assessed cause‐specific survival rates and reproduction of radiomarked gray foxes in Indiana, USA. Our results provide evidence that gray foxes in Indiana are an edge species with relatively large home ranges, relatively low

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT Groundwater depletion is a major challenge in semiarid, hard‐rock regions where irrigation demands often exceed natural recharge. This study evaluates the effectiveness of farm‐scale recharge pits as a local, supplementary, and community‐managed groundwater recharge solution in the Dharta catchment of Rajasthan, India. Alongside check dams and

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.These findings provide strong mechanistic evidence for VOCs mediating pest resistance and suggest that exposure to herbivore‐induced, plant‐derived VOCs can enhance pest resistance in potato crops. These results might offer novel information for developing ecologically sustainable plant volatile‐based strategies for boosting protection against pests in
