Long‐Term Legacy of Exotic Pioneers: Over Two Decades of Biodiversity Monitoring Reveals Constrained Succession in a Restored Sanitary Landfill

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term ecological studies are critical for evaluating restoration strategies on challenging sites, such as closed landfills. This study presents a 23‐year biodiversity monitoring program (2000–2023) at the restored Southeast New Territories sanitary landfill in Hong Kong.

Microplastic‐Induced Shifts in Soil Leachate Chemistry, Redox Response, Biochemistry, and Biofilm Dynamics

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) are increasingly recognized as soil contaminants, yet their time‐dependent associations with dissolved organic matter characteristics, redox behavior, biochemical constituents, and biofilm‐associated responses are often investigated separately.

M genes as a new frontier in plant protection

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Microbiome genes, or M genes, are host genes involved in shaping microbial communities. In plant protection, microbiome engineering via M genes shows great promise for the development of new production strategies in the face of increasing pathogen pressure.

Innovations in polysaccharide‐based hydrogels in sustainable agriculture

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Polysaccharide‐based hydrogels are promising in sustainable agriculture, as these natural polymers have the ability to absorb water and nutrients and release them gradually in the soil, in addition to ensuring biodegradability and lower cost. However, some challenges still need to be overcome.

Impact of plant breeding on the responsiveness of maize and wheat varieties to an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal symbiont

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Field inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) offers a promising route to improve sustainable agriculture and food production, yet results are often variable. We investigated the mycorrhizal growth response of maize and wheat varieties recommended for farmers and found substantial variation under greenhouse conditions.

Informing the potential of mature temperate forests as natural climate solutions: Changed fine root biomass and morphology under elevated CO2

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The land carbon sink absorbs approximately 25% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, with forests accounting for most. Managing forests as Natural Climate Solutions is therefore a societal imperative, requiring models of where and how long carbon resides within these ecosystems. We investigated the effects of elevated CO2 on fine roots, the primary source of

Plant species are more important to bacterial community composition than seeding ratio in a pea‐canola intercropping system

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Demand for agricultural land has increased due to rising demand for food, potentially leading to expansion into previously untouched habitats, which threatens refugia of native plants. We aimed to provide insight into how variation in seeding ratio may impact soil bacterial communities in a pea‐canola intercropping system, potentially altering crop ...

Plant responses to iron nutrition with emphasis on the underutilized crop tef (Eragrostis tef): A review

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Iron (Fe) deficiency limits the physical health, cognitive development, and economic output of billions of people globally, especially children and productive‐age women. Tef is an underutilized and stress‐resilient crop, which is becoming popular for its grains containing high bioavailable Fe and has the potential to mitigate Fe deficiency.
