Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) Aquaponics Enhances the Productivity of Fish and Crops: Trials on Nile Tilapia, African Catfish, Lettuce, Spinach and Basil

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the efficiency of nutrient film technique (NFT) aquaponic systems in enhancing the productivity of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), African catfish (Clarias gariepinus), and leafy vegetables (lettuce, spinach and basil) under aquaponic conditions.

The herbicidal natural product phosphonothrixin is an inhibitor of the riboflavin biosynthetic enzyme L‐3,4‐dihydroxy‐2‐butanone‐4‐phosphate synthase

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 4328-4335, August 2025.
An enzyme involved in vitamin B2 biosynthesis, 3,4‐dihydroxy‐2‐butanone‐4‐phosphate synthase (DHBPS), was identified as the target of the natural product phosphonothrixin, representing a novel mode of action for herbicides. Abstract BACKGROUND In our ongoing search for new and environmentally friendly chemical entities that can control weeds via new ...

The abundance and phenology of four common agromyzid leafmining flies (Diptera: Agromyzidae) and their associated parasitoid wasps in southern Victoria

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2025.
Abstract Three polyphagous agromyzid leafminers, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard, Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) and Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess), have recently invaded mainland Australia, posing a threat to horticultural crops. Overseas, these species are often effectively controlled by local hymenopteran parasitoids.

Individual Discrimination Within, but Not Between, Two Vocalization Types of the Black‐Capped Chickadee

open access: yesEthology, Volume 131, Issue 8, Page 1-12, August 2025.
Black‐capped chickadees' chick‐a‐dee calls and fee‐bee songs are individually distinct. We used an operant conditioning Go/No‐go paradigm to train chickadees to discriminate among four individuals' chick‐a‐dee calls or fee‐bee songs. Chickadees successfully learned this discrimination rule.

Two cowpea Rubisco activase isoforms for crop thermotolerance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 3, Page 1199-1217, August 2025.
Summary A vital crop for sub‐Saharan Africa, cowpea productivity, is threatened by climate change, including increased heatwave intensity, duration and frequency. Rubisco activase (Rca) is a key molecular chaperone that maintains Rubisco activity and, due to its thermal sensitivity, is a key target for improving crop climate resilience.

Greater Than the Sum of the Parts: Revisiting the Enhancement Effect in Photosynthesis Using Simulated Sun‐ and Shade‐Light

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 8, Page 6102-6117, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Far‐red light (FR) alone drives photosynthesis poorly, but when combined with shorter wavelengths it enhances photosynthesis beyond the sum of their individual effects—a phenomenon known as the Emerson enhancement effect. This effect is well‐established for narrowband PAR‐FR mixtures, and recent results show it also occurs within broadband ...
