The soul of the soil: Unearthing a Nation's eco‐empathy through 1200 years of Persian poetry

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Cultivating a profound sense of connection with the natural world, conceptualized as eco‐empathy, is increasingly recognized as a vital precursor to effective environmental stewardship. While scientific data frame ecological crises, literary traditions offer a unique archive for tracing the history of this empathetic bond. This study positions

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

The shared benefits of fallen fruits: A novel mechanism stabilizing a nursery pollination mutualism between Sambucus and kateretid beetles

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

Epistemic diversity and the politics of knowledge in plant disease management: Insights from the Xylella fastidiosa epidemic in southern Italy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Xylella fastidiosa is a major plant pathogen affecting crops such as grapes, citrus, almonds, and olives, with potentially severe consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods worldwide. This paper examines the conflict around the management of the X. fastidiosa outbreak affecting olive trees in southern Italy.

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...
