Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Cicer arietinum L. (chickpea) is susceptible to Ascochyta blight (AB). Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are symbiotic root colonizing fungi that exchange soil nutrients for photosynthetic carbon. AMF form common mycorrhizal networks (CMNs), connecting plant roots and transferring nutrients.

Agronomic and Grain Quality Traits of Different Chickpea Cultivars Grown in Southern Germany
Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT In Germany, chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is so far considered as a “new” crop. Introducing “new” crops in new growing regions can face many challenges. One of the major challenges is selecting appropriate cultivars. This study aimed to provide clear, region‐specific recommendations for suitable chickpea cultivars to support future agronomic ...

Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.

Nitrogen Climate Smart: Cutting UK agricultural emissions using a farmer‐focused theory of change
Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.Agricultural research projects that require farmers to change land management practice to make impact must embed meaningful co‐design from the outset. This figure contrasts the more traditional top‐down approach to academic research, where research outputs weakly reach farmers and impact fades when funding for short‐term projects ends.

Optimising the greenhouse cultivation of Lotus japonicus under dimmable LED
Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.Optimisation of growth conditions for Lotus japonicus ecotypes MG‐20 and Gifu in climate‐controlled greenhouses indicated that L. japonicus produced less flowers and pods under the fluctuating light of mobile LED (location = 5) than under stationary LED (location = 9) and the effect of the light source increased under low ambient light conditions in ...

A root–soil association index reveals life‐history strategies of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2932-2947, September 2026.Phylogenetic tree of Glomeromycota, including all studied virtual taxa, based on the small subunit region. The bar plot in the external part of the phylogeny depicts the log‐transformed arbuscular mycorrhizal root–soil association index, with values > 0 indicating rhizophilic lifestyle, < 0 edaphophilic lifestyle, and close to 0 no preference.
