Impacts of Industrial Crop Production by Smallholders on Household Food Security in Ghana: Evidence From the Oil Palm Sector

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT An increase in industrial crop production has important implications for food security, the environment and rural development in major growing areas of the world. This study assessed the impact of smallholder industrial crop production on the food security of agricultural households.

The Transcription Factors HbWRKY29 and HbPTI5 cooperatively enhance rubber tree resistance to powdery mildew

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Upon Erysiphe quercicola infection, rubber HbWRKY29 is rapidly induced and physically interacts with HbPTI5 to trigger HR. HbWRKY29 binds the HbPTI5 promoter (W‐box), enhancing HbPTI5 expression, which activates HbTLP1 expression, leading to reinforced defence.

Enhancing Aboveground Biomass Estimation in Rubber Plantations Using UAV Multispectral Data for Satellite Upscaling

Remote Sensing
The estimation of rubber plantation aboveground biomass (AGB) is crucial for carbon sequestration assessment and management optimization. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) fitted with multispectral sensors present an economical approach for local-scale AGB

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3616-3633, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

In Vivo Propagation of Root Explants of the Dandelion Species Taraxacum kok‐saghyz, Taraxacum officinale and Their Interspecific Hybrids

Plant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 3, Page 610-624, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The dandelion species Taraxacum kok‐saghyz is a promising new crop for natural rubber production and is currently in the early stages of the breeding process. To support these efforts, the multiplication and conservation of defined genotypes are crucial.

Infectious Diseases Management in Small‐Scale Freshwater Aquaculture in West Africa: Lessons for Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Infectious diseases are an increasing threat to food security, small‐scale livelihoods and the sustainability of aquaculture in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). In sub‐Saharan Africa, aquaculture is expanding rapidly but production systems often remain fragile.

A new framework for mapping rubber plantations through the combination of semiautomatic sample migration, dynamic phenology, and change detection variables based on time series Landsat images

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Reliable mapping of rubber plantations is essential for yield estimation and sustainable land management, yet existing methods struggle with the lack of historical samples and the underuse of dynamic phenological information.
