A Non‐Destructive Method for Sex Identification in a Tubuliferan Thrips

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 1135-1140, September 2026.
Accurate sex identification of the biological control agent Pseudophilothrips ichini Hood (Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae) is a useful tool for colony management and experimental applications in biological control. Destructive methods of sex identification limit specimen usage, prompting the need for a sex identification method for live thrips.

How Does Glucose Addition Affect Net Carbon Balance in Top and Deep Soils in Tropical Rubber‐Based Agroforestry Systems?

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10272-10283, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The priming effect, which can accelerate or suppress the mineralization of soil organic carbon (SOC), plays an important role in soil carbon cycling. However, the impact of exogenous carbon addition on SOC priming in rubber‐based agroforestry systems remains unclear.

Effects of Rubber Plantation Restoration in National Parks on Plant Diversity and Soil Chemical Properties

Diversity
Plantations left for natural succession play a significant role in Tropical Rainforest National Parks. Studying the succession and restoration of plantations is crucial for achieving a park’s authenticity and integrity, as well as for maximizing its ...

Effects of Long‐Term Thinning on Soil Nematode Communities in Pinus taiwanensis Plantations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Moderate thinning (20% tree removal) optimizes soil resource distribution and boosts soil nematode community diversity and stability in Pinus taiwanensis plantations. Fungivorous and omnivorous‐predatory nematodes are enriched under moderate thinning, indicating trophic cascading effects in soil food webs. Moderate thinning drives nematode life‐history

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.

Perennial Legumes Pueraria phaseoloides and Leucaena leucocephala Exhibit High Potential for Fertility Restoration of Degraded Mined Soils in Ghana

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 450-459, August 2026.
Revegetating the subsoil layer of abandoned gold mined sites with the perennial legumes Leucaena Leucocephala, Pueraria phaseoloides and Gliricidia sepium without any soil amendments increases the content of soil organic carbon and important macro‐nutrients, which are crucial for restoring soil health and productivity. These improvements in soil health

Soil legacy effects on a temperate tree species depend on the mycorrhizal types and phylogenetic distance of the conditioning trees

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2602-2616, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Associations of trees with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi often shape distinct microbial communities in soils. Whether this distinction can create different soil legacies and to what extent such legacies are correlated to phylogenetic ...

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
