Nitrogen Balance and Protein Quality Ingestion in Pregnant Women: Characterizing a Nutritional Scenario in a Pilot Study in Mexico

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
We assessed dietary intake and protein adequacy among pregnant women using the duplicate portion method and urinary nitrogen excretion. Nitrogen balance was used to evaluate protein status, showing that poorer diet quality and higher BMI were associated with negative nitrogen balance, while better diet quality was linked to positive balance.

Sensory Properties and Aroma Compound Profiles of Pea Protein Isolates in Relation to High Hydrostatic Pressure and High‐Pressure Homogenization Treatments

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Flavor profiles of untreated pea protein isolate (light green, solid line) compared to High Pressure Homogenization (HPH) treated (dark blue, dash‐dot line) and High Hydrostatic Pressure (HHP) treated pea protein isolates (dark green, dashed line). Samples were described as mainly pea‐like/bean‐like, flour‐like/cereal‐like, bitter, fatty, and sour ...

Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 236-247, June 2026.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

An Economical Bioprocess for Lipopeptide Production From Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
The lipopeptide (LP) production potential of Bacillus isolates was evaluated against phytopathogenic fungi, with B. subtilis 4‐Ka‐22 identified as the top‐performing strain. Optimization of the production medium—comprising molasses, soybean meal, CaCl2, and glycerol—resulted in a 13.4‐fold increase in cell growth and over 99% cost reduction compared to

Functional Metagenomics Insights Into the Allium ampeloprasum Rhizosphere Microbiome Under Different Fertilization Regimes

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was used to characterize the functional potential of the Allium ampeloprasum rhizosphere microbiome under chemical fertilizer (G1), biofertilizer (G2), and unfertilized (Bulk) soil (G3) management practices. This study revealed that different fertilization regimes altered microbial functional profiles.

A Complete Genome Resource and Bio‐Control Activity of Soil‐Isolated Pseudomonas citronellolis Strain M03 Against Onion‐Pathogenic Burkholderia Species

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Pseudomonas citronellolis M03, isolated from field soil, was sequenced and its genome revealed ten biosynthetic clusters, including siderophore NRPS. Phenotypic assays showed strong antagonism against onion‐pathogenic Burkholderia spp., reducing B.

A Roadmap for Breeding Sweet Tomatoes

open access: yesModern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
This graphical abstract outlines four breeding strategies for enhancing sugar content and sweetness in tomato fruits: (1) Identification of key genes and functional variant loci regulating fruit sugar accumulation through systematic germplasm collection, genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), map‐based cloning, and reverse genetics approaches.

Feeding Ecology of Gould's Arrow Squid Nototodarus gouldi (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae) in Aotearoa New Zealand Waters

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Squids are important components of marine ecosystems because of their role as both predator and prey. Across the Tasman Sea, Gould's arrow squid (Nototodarus gouldi) is a commercially targeted ommastrephid squid that supports an economically important fishery.

The paradox of mosquito net fishing: Complex socio‐ecological trade‐offs in southwestern Madagascar

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1755-1772, June 2026.
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries are vital for the livelihoods, nutrition and well‐being of millions of people in coastal regions. In many parts of the Global South, rising poverty, limited alternatives and declining resources have driven the spread of mosquito net fishing (MNF), a non‐selective practice using repurposed health‐distributed nets.

Compost‐Based Organic Amendments and Synthetic Fertilisers Enhance Soil Health and Crop Yield Worldwide

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fertiliser management is central to achieving sustainable increases in crop productivity while maintaining soil health. Yet, it remains unclear how chemical fertilisers, organic amendments (OAs), or their combination have comparable effects on soil health at a global scale.
