Contrasted habitat selection among Eurasian curlew populations according to landscape heterogeneity and breeding stage

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
This study aimed to quantify the spatio‐temporal use of breeding environments by the Eurasian curlew in 5 contrasting agricultural landscapes. To this end, 64 individuals were tagged with GPS devices to assess their space use according to their breeding stages and define their foraging habitat selection.

Recovering nutrients from urine – A golden opportunity for sustainable fertiliser production

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 747-753, May 2026.
Agricultural industrialisation has led to levels of nutrients in the environment that are well above safe operating limits, yet fertiliser use is necessary to feed a growing population. The recovery of nutrients from human urine in large, developed cities may offset some of the ecological and economic impacts associated with fertiliser production, as ...

Characterization of In Situ Ruminal Degradation of Crude Protein and Individual Amino Acids from Ryegrass

Agriculture
In temperate pasture-based dairy systems, ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is a key forage due to its high crude protein (CP) content, yet its rapid ruminal degradation could limit the supply of rumen-undegraded protein and essential amino acids (EAAs) to ...

Monitoring and Managing of Ergot Alkaloids in Cereal Grains: A Comprehensive Analysis of Analytical Challenges, Sampling Uncertainty, and Processing for Food Safety

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Ergot alkaloids (EAs), toxic secondary metabolites produced by Claviceps purpurea, pose food and feed safety concerns for cereal grains, particularly rye and wheat. While EAs are most frequently associated with rye, their occurrence in other cereals has been increasingly reported across diverse regions.

Infection of ryegrass plants with ryegrass mosaic virus decreases numbers of the mite vector

Annals of Applied Biology, 1976
SUMMARYFewer of the eriophyid mite Abacarus hystrix, vector of ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV), were found on RMV‐infected field plants of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum cv. S. 22) than on healthy plants. In glasshouse experiments, mites multiplied similarly on healthy and infected plants until disease symptoms developed; afterwards, they did not ...

A Stereospecific Lactic Acid Exclusion Biosensor for Grass Silage Fed Green Biorefinery

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
Grass‐silage fed green biorefineries require high‐quality grass‐silage leachates to produce high‐quality products. The steps required to create Escherichia coli based d‐ and l‐lactic acid biosensors applicable to these leachates begins by removing biosensor interference by removing catabolic pathways that correspond to compounds found in grass‐silage ...

Feeding ecology of Australian Christmas beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae): Implications for conservation and habitat management

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Christmas beetles (subfamily Rutelinae, genera Anoplognathus, Calloodes and Repsimus) are an ecologically important and culturally significant group of Australian scarabs, known for their striking appearance and seasonal mass emergences. Over the last decade, anecdotal reports suggest widespread population declines, raising concerns about ...
