Biochar Suppresses Growth, Pupation and Eclosion Success of a Specialist (Manduca sexta) and a Generalist (Spodoptera frugiperda) Insect Herbivore

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Biochar is a charcoal‐like substance made by the pyrolysis of organic material from agricultural and forestry waste. While biochar is well documented for altering soil physicochemical conditions, few studies have investigated its possible effects on the management of arthropod pests.

Climate‐Mediated Hybridisation and the Future of Andean Forests

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The tropical Andes face unprecedented warming and shifting precipitation patterns due to climate change and land‐use alteration, challenging the future of Andean forests. During the Quaternary, many Andean trees responded to climate change through upslope migrations but, while there is evidence of such ongoing migrations in many species, they ...

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 6, Page 2462-2477, June 2025.
Summary Nectar is a central bridge between angiosperms and animal mutualists. It is produced by specialized structures termed nectaries, which can be found on different plant organs. Consumption of floral nectar by pollinators and the subsequent transfer of pollen contribute to the reproductive success of both angiosperms and their pollinators.

Non‐conserved microRNAs and their roles in plants: the case for legumes

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 450-460, June 2025.
Non‐conserved miRNAs are functional and modulate stress and microbial interactions in legumes, hinting at broader roles in plant gene regulation. Abstract Several classes of small RNAs function to regulate stress and development pathways in all kingdoms of life.

Virus‐induced systemic and heritable gene editing in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 5, June 2025.
SUMMARY Genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas system enables rapid and efficient plant breeding by directly introducing desired traits into elite lines within a short time frame. However, challenges associated with conventional Agrobacterium tumefaciens‐mediated transformation and regeneration have limited gene editing in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.).
