Aboveground herbivory elevates belowground rhizosphere volatile organic compound concentrations in ambient and polluted air, independent of volatile sampling methodology

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The effect of air pollution on plants is still underexplored, especially belowground. We used a field facility that released diesel exhaust and ozone at concentrations equivalent to those near a busy road in Reading, UK, to measure belowground gas exchange of Scots pine together with feeding by large pine weevils, a major pest of conifers.

Temporal dynamics of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine interspecific competition and disease development on oilseed rape

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study provides evidence that the timing of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine the outcome of interspecific competition and disease development on their host oilseed rape. Abstract BACKGROUND Phoma stem canker is one of the most economically damaging diseases of oilseed rape, caused by co‐existing fungal ...

Soil‐dependent variation in strigolactone signaling distance revealed by a parasitic seed germination bioassay

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A parasitic seed germination bioassay reveals strong soil‐dependent variation in strigolactone signaling distance, controlled by physical and biological soil properties, which shapes signaling range and parasitic weed infection risk. Abstract BACKGROUND Strigolactones are root‐exuded plant metabolites acting as germination stimulants for several ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.
