Strip cropping in practice: Higher slug abundance despite a higher number of slug‐predating carabid species

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
To avoid increased slug damage in strip cropping fields in slug‐prone areas, potential slug‐source crops should be spatially separated from slug‐sensitive crops. However, an increase in slug abundance should not deter the adoption of strip cropping as higher slug damage in strip cropping systems was rarely observed by farmers.

Exploring the microbiota–skin–brain axis: Chicory extract biotransformed into a postbiotic neurocosmetic enhancer of social and sensory experience

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 635-643, June 2026.
Application of CHICORY EXTRACT by a consumer has the ability to evoke positive emotional responses in individuals who come into tactile contact with the treated skin. Abstract Objective Measuring the influence of cosmetic ingredients on the microbiota‐skin‐brain axis is a difficult challenge.

Molecular Detection of Toxoplasma gondii in Enclosures of African Primates (Papio papio and Papio hamadryas) at the Municipal Zoo of Bauru, São Paulo State, Brazil

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Toxoplasmosis is one of the most prevalent parasitic infections in animals and humans worldwide, attracting the attention of many researchers who, in recent decades, have identified the sources of Toxoplasma gondii infections to optimize the adoption of preventive measures. In previous studies, it has been found that humans are infected mainly

Chicory root extracts reduce inflammation in vivo

The FASEB Journal, 2006
Chicory ( Cichorium intybus L.) contains sesquiterpene lactones, which are thought to be potent anti‐inflammatory agents. In this study, chicory extracts rich in sesquiterpene lactones significantly reduced inflammation in three animal models.

The Effector SIX8 Contributes to Virulence of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae Race 4 on Lettuce

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Secreted in Xylem (SIX) genes were expressed during infection of lettuce by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae race 4 (Fola4). CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout of the SIX8 gene in Fola4 reduced virulence in lettuce which was restored following Agrobacterium mediated complementation. SIX8 therefore contributes to virulence of Fola4 on lettuce.

LsMAPK6 Phosphorylates the LsCO Protein to Enhance Its Stability and Transcriptional Activity, Promoting Floral Transition Upon High Temperatures in Lettuce

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4064-4083, June 2026.
ABSTRACT High temperatures significantly accelerate the timing of floral transition, namely, bolting and flowering, in lettuce, which results in severe loss of marketable yield. Thus, understanding the genetic regulation of floral transition is of great interest to plant biologists and lettuce breeders.

Galling and Reproduction of Different Isolates of Meloidogyne floridensis on Culinary Herbs

Journal of Nematology
Meloidogyne floridensis was first described in Florida, USA, in 2004 but has since been reported in California, South Carolina, and Georgia. Our objective was to determine the galling and reproduction differences between two isolates of M.
