Centring care as part of Indigenous environmental stewardship: Collective learning through cultural plants

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1349-1361, May 2026.
Abstract Stewardship is broadly defined as ‘universal responsibility of humanity to care for the planet, to ensure that it can continue to provide the essential natural resources for life’. Stewardship practices shape ecosystems, create diverse biocultural landscapes, and can enhance the productivity, availability and health of plants used by ...

Effects of Vaccinium ArboreumRootstocks on Yield and Fruit Quality of ‘Patrecia’ Southern Highbush Blueberry Grown with Minimum Soil Amendment

Journal of American Pomological Society, 2023
Blueberry plants ( Vaccinium corymbosuminterspecific hybrids) need soils with acidic pH and high organic matter. This leads growers to use soil amendments like pine bark and soil acidifying agents like sulfur.

Is Nocturnal Pollination Important for Crop Production? Experimental Evidence From Small Fruit Crops

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 147-157, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect‐mediated pollination is essential for crop production but is mainly studied considering diurnal pollinators only. Here, we use pollinator exclusion techniques to prevent either diurnal or nocturnal insect visits in small fruit crops: raspberry (Rubus idaeus), over 1 year, and red currant (Ribes rubrum) and black currant (Ribes nigrum ...

Contrasting effects of experimental warming in the initiation year and the flowering year on flower phenology of boreal understory species

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Premise High‐latitude plants initiate flower primordia at least 1 year before flowering. While impacts of rising temperatures on phenology in the flowering year are well studied, the effects of warmer temperatures in the initiation year (IY; the year before flowering) are virtually unknown.
