Assessing the Effect of a Deep‐Rooted Grass on Belowground Carbon Storage in Cultivated Land: Insights From a Multi‐Site US Study

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Agriculture depletes soil organic carbon (SOC), partly due to the exclusion of deep‐rooted perennials. Reintroducing deep‐rooted perennials to cultivated land may help to mitigate SOC loss. We quantified the effect of deep roots on SOC by comparing 8 to 30 year‐old stands of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) with paired annual row crop fields ...

Diversity and Plant Growth‐Promoting Potential of Duckweed‐Associated Bacteria on Wolffia globosa Biomass Production and Nutritional Quality

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Co‐cultivation screening of 116 duckweed‐associated bacteria revealed isolates that enhanced Wolffia globosa biomass up to 77.75%, with Pseudomonas toyotomiensis W5–11 increasing dry weight 3.18‐fold and chlorophyll content 2.75‐fold, demonstrating their potential as biofertilisers for sustainable duckweed production.

Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 762-787, April 2026.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In

Synthesis and Biological Profile of Substituted Pyrrolidinyl Carboxamides for Acyl‐ACP Thioesterase Inhibition

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 12, 23 March 2026.
The work outlined herein covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess a pyrrolidinyl pyrazole carboxamide scaffold as a key structural feature, carrying further substituted benzyl side chains. Based on scaffold hopping approaches from known fungicidal and herbicidal compounds and utilizing an optimized synthetic approach, a broader ...
