Open‐land‐derived agroforestry and effects of abandonment of management of the main crop on ecosystem services and woody plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

Diverse Prairie Mixtures Stabilize Biomass Yields for Sustainable Aviation Fuel Production

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Meeting global demand for sustainable aviation fuel will require the additional production of vast quantities of plant biomass, which does not compete with food production or degrade sensitive ecosystems. Our multisite experiment shows that sowing diverse native prairie seed mixes—and managing them without intensive inputs—yields a more reliable ...

Accelerating the prioritisation of plant species with underexplored medicinal potential: The pm4mp (Phylogenetic Methods for Medicinal Plants) R package

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Medicinal plants used in ethnobotanical traditions to treat or prevent diseases have gained renewed interest for their largely untapped potential in drug discovery. In this study, we developed and tested novel methods to prioritise plant species based on their unexplored medicinal potential. By enabling researchers to target the most promising species,

Exploring the Gut‐Prostate Axis: Microbial Signatures Linked to Prostate Volume and Bladder Function

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common urologic condition in aging men, often linked to systemic inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. Emerging evidence suggests that the gut microbiome may contribute to prostate health and disease.

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.
