Wheat Yield Response to Organic Fertilisers Depends on Drought Timing in a Sandy Soil

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Organic fertilisers enhance crop drought resilience by improving nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) use efficiency and soil‐plant water relations. However, the underlying mechanisms governing their effects across different drought timings in wheat under sandy soils remain unclear.

Superhydrophobic surfaces: a model approach to predict contact angle and surface energy of soil particles [PDF]

, 2009
Wettability of soil affects a wide variety of processes including infiltration, preferential flow and surface runoff. The problem of determining contact angles and surface energy of powders, such as soil particles, remains unsolved.

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Butylparaben in Edaphic Organisms Using Multiple Biomarkers

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 176-189, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Butylparaben (BuP) recurrently contaminates soils worldwide, mainly by incorporating sewage sludge into cultivated areas, using wastewater in irrigation, and leaching contaminated soils. However, there are few studies on the ecotoxicological effects of this paraben on edaphic organisms.

Long-term field pH manipulation influence on microbial activity, water repellency and physical properties of soil

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics
Studies across multiple soils find increasing pH decreases water repellency. In this study, water repellency and a range of other soil physical properties of bulk soils, aggregates and intact specimens were measured on a long-term pH field experiment on ...

Weaving a New Path: Rethinking Incumbents' Role in Sustainability Transitions Through a Multilevel Perspective

Creativity and Innovation Management, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 91-109, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how incumbent firms can actively foster sustainability transitions by strategically engaging across regime and niche levels when developing sustainable innovations. Drawing on an embedded case study of a leading Italian textile company involved in eight sustainable innovation projects, we identify four strategies—namely,

Welcome Pathogens: Transient Heat Dampens Immune Responses to Acibenzolar‐S‐Methyl in Apple Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 1229-1248, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change affects plant‐pathogen interactions, with disease outcome varying depending on the pathosystem and environmental scenario. In Arabidopsis, a thermo‐sensitive module of salicylic acid (SA) signalling makes immunity vulnerable to heat.

Influence of organic manure amendments on water repellency, water entry value, and water retention of soil samples from a tropical Ultisol

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2016
Lowered stability of soil aggregates governed by insufficient organic matter levels has become a major concern in Sri Lanka. Although the use of organic manure with water repellent properties lowers the wetting rates and improves the stability of soil ...
