Effects of Morphological Age and Indole-3-Butyric Acid Concentration on Rooting of Selected Robusta Coffee Varieties

open access: yesCoffee and Cocoa Research Journal
In response to the outbreak of Coffee Wilt Disease (CWD) which wiped out almost 50% of Robusta coffee in Uganda, the National Coffee Research Institute (NaCORI) released 10 varieties (KR1-10) which are resistant to the disease. These varieties are being

Key Drivers of Soil CO2, CH4, and N2O Fluxes in Conifer and Broadleaf Afforestation Systems in the Southeastern U.S.: A Machine Learning Analysis

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Soil CO2 and CH4 emissions were higher in broadleaf than conifer afforestation systems in the southeastern U.S., particularly during the growing season. Machine learning analyses identified soil temperature, moisture, and atmospheric conditions as key drivers, emphasizing that soil greenhouse gas responses critically influence the climate mitigation ...

Genetic insights into bacterial wilt resistance using genomic prediction and association mapping in blueberry

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia spp., poses a major threat to blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) production due to its persistence and rapid spread through soil and infected stock, highlighting the need for genetic insights to guide breeding strategies. This study investigated the genetic basis of bacterial wilt resistance in blueberry using

Performance of Glass Fiber Composites With Plastic‐Waste Pyrolysis Char as Filler

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 16, Page 14769-14787, 20 August 2026.
Valorisation of mixed plastic waste into carbonaceous char via pyrolysis, its integration as a microfiller in epoxy/E‐glass (GFRP) laminates, and characterisation to assess composite performance as a function of filler loading. ABSTRACT Plastic pyrolysis offers circular solutions for mixed plastic waste but leaves a carbonaceous char that is often ...
