Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Rethinking social capital in wildfire resilience: the case of central Portugal
Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.Abstract This article explores the role of social capital in wildfire resilience and is based on case study research in central Portugal. Given the recent revival of the concept across disciplines to explain how communities can cope with hazards, we critically analyse social capital through a social network analysis perspective, introducing an ...

Effect of plant population on crop growth, floral biomass, and cannabinoid yield in field‐grown hemp
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) was recently re‐legalized in the United States and cultivated for various purposes, including floral cannabidiol (CBD), grain, and fiber. Due to prohibition of hemp for a century, research supporting production guidelines, including plant density effects on CBD production, remains limited.

Sainfoin stand termination: Variable herbicide efficacy in field conditions
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Effective termination of perennial forage legumes is a critical step in a crop rotation system, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions where soil moisture conservation and timely establishment of subsequent crops are essential. Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.), a deep‐rooted, drought‐tolerant forage legume gaining renewed interest ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1511-1553, June 2026.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Wear stress of creeping bentgrass as affected by pigmented phosphonate fungicides
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Wear stress can negatively impact the quality of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) putting greens. Phosphonate fungicides formulated with proprietary pigments often include label language indicating plant health benefits, such as alleviating abiotic and biotic stresses.
