Native seed mix functional composition determines native plant recruitment and competition against invasive annual grass Bromus tectorum

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The invasion of the winter annual grass Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) reduces native plant biodiversity and increases wildfire risk in western North America. Seed‐based restoration often fails to increase native plant recruitment in degraded, Cheatgrass‐invaded areas.

Enhancing spray coverage in peanut canopies using prohexadione calcium

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Excessive vine growth in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) can limit fungicide spray penetration, reducing protection against foliar diseases. Prohexadione calcium suppresses vine growth and may improve spray distribution, but its effects on fungicide coverage in peanut remain unclear.

Spatial analysis of cell patterning to aid genetic and phenotypic understanding of grass stomatal density: A case study in maize

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Biological processes involve complex hierarchies where composite traits result from multiple component traits. However, holistically understanding of how sets of component traits interact to underpin genotype‐to‐phenotype relationships is generally lacking.

Impaired Motor Function in a Zebrafish Stathmin‐2 Knockout Model

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Stathmin‐2 (STMN2) is a microtubule‐associated protein that plays a role in the stability of microtubules in axons of the nervous system of animals. In this study, we generated a novel zebrafish STMN2 knockout (KO) model. STMN2 is represented by two genes in the zebrafish genome: stmn2a and stmn2b.

Actuation Strategies for Underwater Jet‐Propelled Soft Robots

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 3868-3892, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This review article examines jet‐propulsion mechanisms in underwater soft robotic systems, focusing exclusively on physically fabricated and experimentally validated robots. Covering research published from 2013 to 2025, this study classifies and evaluates jet‐propulsion robots based on their actuation mechanisms.

Growth Indicators of a 48-Clone Sugar Cane Population (Saccharum spp.) with Forage Potential

open access: yesAgrisost, 2016
The aim of this paper was to determine growth indicators in a 48-clone sugar cane population, with promising phenotypical features for forage production. The following indicators were assessed: leaf area (A), leaf area index (LA1); leaf area ratio (LAR)

Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

Generative AI Implementation in Enterprises: Lessons From a Case Study of Enhanced IT Service Management

open access: yesInformation Systems Journal, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 661-690, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The recent rise of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is fundamentally changing the way businesses operate, with many now investing heavily in this technology. However, businesses are still exploring ways to extract value from GenAI and develop organisational capabilities.

From Traits to Parameters: Genotype and Water Regime Effects on Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) Crop Model Parameterization

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding genotype × environment (G × E) interactions is essential for improving yield stability and resource use efficiency in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) under variable water availability. Field experiments with six diverse genotypes grown under two contrasting water regimes (fully irrigated vs.

Functional Trait Variation and Reverse Phenology in the Tropical Dry Forest Species Bonellia nervosa

open access: yesPlants
Bonellia nervosa is an understory tree with reverse phenology in tropical dry forests (TDFs), where seasonal water and temperature stress typically shape plant phenology and trait expression. This species is heliophytic and phreatophytic, relying on high
