Combined application of Bacillus velezensis JDB15 and Trichoderma harzianum JDL4 suppresses banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The surfactin C secreted by JDB15 and the probable parasitism of JDL4 lead to the leakage of intracellular macromolecules and the degradation of hyphae, respectively. Combined application of the two strains effectively controls banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions.

Geographical Differences Weaken the Convergence Effect of the Rhizosphere Bacteria of Rubber Trees

open access: yes
The rhizosphere has been observed to both enrich and deplete soil microorganisms, but it remains unclear whether rhizosphere microorganisms of the same species exhibit convergence in different climatic regions.

Controlled incubation, leachate, and pot assays of shrimp shell‐based compost for suppressing Verticillium dahliae in olive

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Shrimp shell compost suppresses Verticillium dahliae microsclerotia, enhances chitinase activity, lowers olive wilt severity and improves plant recovery under controlled conditions. Abstract BACKGROUND Verticillium wilt of olive (Olea europaea L.), caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb., is difficult to manage because long‐lived microsclerotia persist in

Persistence of seed‐applied pesticides in soybeans: environmental influences and implications for crop protection

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Early soybean planting in cool, wet soils slows emergence and results in about half the insecticide and fungicide concentrations at vegetative emergence compared with standard planting, where faster emergence maintains roughly double the pesticide concentrations, yet pesticide persistence remains similar across both planting dates.

Efficient water‐soluble blue/red‐emissive carbon dots matching plant absorption spectra: Synthesis, tunable control, and their applications in promoting plant growth

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the spectral demand of plant photosystems, this review summarizes the synthesis, emission regulation, dual‐emission design, and gram‐scale production of CDs for agricultural applications. Spectrally matched blue‐ and red‐emissive CDs enhance plant light utilization by converting underutilized light into photosynthetically active radiation and

Addressing Water Scarcity in Agriculture: A Bibliometric Analysis of Hydrogel‐Based Strategies for Drought Resilience and Sustainable Water Management

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought poses a significant threat to agricultural systems worldwide, exacerbating challenges to food security and sustainability. Hydrogels, superabsorbent polymers that can retain substantial amounts of water, have emerged as a promising solution to mitigate the adverse effects of drought. In this integrated bibliometric and narrative review,

Bidirectional Plant‐Microneedle Responses to Guide Biomaterial Design

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
We examine bidirectional interactions between plants and polymeric microneedles to develop effective compound delivery strategies. Material chemistry and architecture determine stability in the plant environment, cargo–matrix interactions, and the magnitude and duration of the plant response. Plant microneedles should therefore be designed as a coupled
