A walk in the park—Identifying healthy greenspaces using scents

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As urbanisation accelerates globally, access to nature is increasingly recognised as vital for public health and wellbeing. We captured and analysed plant‐emitted airborne ‘scent signatures’ across Oxford's urban greenspaces to assess their potential health relevance.

Nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications for the sotol plant (Asparagaceae, Convallarioideae): A review

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sotol (Dasylirion spp.) is a resilient desert plant that sustains ecosystems, cultures and livelihoods in Chihuahua Desert. Our review highlights its nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications in food, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and water remediation. By synthesizing evidence across disciplines, we show how sotol can

Hydrogen sulfide persulfidates OAS-A1 to balance cysteine levels in regulating Arabidopsis stomatal development

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Plants regulate photosynthesis and transpiration primarily by adjusting the stomatal aperture and density to adapt to environmental changes. O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase (OAS-TL) maintains a balance between cysteine (Cys) and sulfide metabolism ...

Simulating soybean canopy temperature as affected by weather variables and soil water potential [PDF]

open access: yes
Hourly weather data for several clear sky days during summer at Phoenix and Baltimore which covered a wide range of variables were used with a plant atmosphere model to simulate soybean (Glycine max L.) leaf water potential, stomatal resistance and ...

Suitability of slightly saline irrigation for alleviating drought stress in taro and yam in Tonga: Implications for climate‐resilient Pacific cropping systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
There is an increasing risk of drought and salinisation of soil and groundwater globally, including in Pacific Island countries such as Tonga. Irrigating crops with slightly saline water, such as that produced by emerging desalination technologies, could help to alleviate droughts.

Photosynthesis and conductance of spring-wheat leaves: field response to continuous free-air atmospheric CO2 enrichment [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Spring wheat was grown from emergence to grain maturity in two partial pressures of CO2 (pCO2): ambient air of nominally 37 Pa and air enriched with CO2 to 55 Pa using a free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) apparatus.

Temporal dynamics of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine interspecific competition and disease development on oilseed rape

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study provides evidence that the timing of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine the outcome of interspecific competition and disease development on their host oilseed rape. Abstract BACKGROUND Phoma stem canker is one of the most economically damaging diseases of oilseed rape, caused by co‐existing fungal ...

Characteristics of the stomatal apparatus of Vigna (Vigna unguiculata) during introduction in the south of Western Siberia

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений. Поволжский регион: Естественные науки
Background. The stomatal apparatus of heat-loving legume species reflects the ecological features of its functioning in thе (sub) tropical conditions of the original range.

Sustainable treatment of banana leaves for phytosanitary applications: impact, spreading, and impregnation of mineral oil

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Mineral oil droplets spread anisotropically, penetrate banana leaf tissues, and diffuse into the palisade parenchyma, revealing a delayed, Fickian mechanism that supports improved phytosanitary spray strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Efficient application of phytosanitary sprays is essential for sustainable control of foliar fungal diseases such as Black
