Soil‐Applied Silicon Does Not Affect the Performance of Aphis craccivora on Cowpea Genotypes

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important crop in tropical regions, where infestations of the black aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch (Hemiptera: Aphididae), can significantly reduce productivity. Silicon (Si) fertilization has been proposed as a strategy to enhance plant resistance to herbivores, although its effectiveness varies among plant ...

Between famine and freedom: Food prices during the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945–9

The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 3, Page 1082-1107, August 2026.
Abstract This paper investigates how the Indonesian War of Independence (1945‒9) influenced staple food prices, and how fluctuations in those prices, in turn, shaped the trajectory and dynamics of the conflict. We compiled a dataset comprising more than 8600 prices for staple foods covering the entire Indonesian archipelago from 1939‒49, allowing us to

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2368-2387, August 2026.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Impact of the invasive diatom species Cymbella janischii on riverine microbial biofilm communities and a potential role of bacterially produced zeatin

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1221-1239, August 2026.
Abstract The diatom Cymbella janischii is an invasive species in Japan, causing nuisance blooms by forming thick mats in rivers. To date, there are no documented studies on the microbiome associations in C. janischii mats or the processes that drive bloom formation.

Rapid dehydration drives a nondiffusional drop in C3 photosynthesis that aligns with phosphate limitation

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1127-1142, August 2026.
Schematic representation of the causal sequence through which rapid water loss imposes diffusive and nondiffusive restrictions on carbon assimilation. Summary Drought is an abnormally prolonged water deficit posing major challenges to plants. Stomatal closure has long been considered the primary factor limiting photosynthesis during the early stages of
