A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Influence of drought stress on the metabolite and ion composition in nectar and nectaries of different day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Drought stress leads to reduced nectar secretion and alters nectar composition of day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species, which may impair plant–pollinator interactions. Abstract The frequencies of droughts worldwide will increase in the future due to climate changes. Nectar composition of plant species varies in relation to pollinator and can also

Soil seed banks in three restored wildlife corridors; implications for linear habitats in tropical environments

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoring habitat corridors between fragments and continuous forests can potentially counter the effects of isolation, especially in tropical forests where species sensitivity to fragmentation is high. The ability of restored linear habitats to absorb natural disturbance in inimical surroundings potentially reflects resilience, an important aim of ...

Evaluation of Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Compost as a Soil Amendment for Vegetable Production

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Agricultural production practices are facing ever‐increasing constraints under a climate demanding more sustainable practices be implemented. One promising solution that has received a lot of attention of late is black soldier fly (BSF) composting. Here we evaluated the application of BSF‐derived compost in comparison to commercially available
