Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

Vocabulary Opens the Door; Creativity Guides the Search: Complementary Contributions to Second Language Semantic Fluency Across Domains

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Semantic fluency, the ability to retrieve words within a category, relies on lexical knowledge, semantic memory and executive control mechanisms. A richer, interconnected semantic memory and optimal executive control, as seen in creative individuals, enhance fluency through broad associative searches and quicker access to remote concepts ...

Structure and sequence evolution in the pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) pangenome

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Eukaryotic genomes harbor many forms of variation, including nucleotide diversity and structural polymorphisms, which experience natural selection and contribute to genome evolution and biodiversity. Harnessing this variation for agriculture hinges on our ability to detect, quantify, catalog, and deploy genetic diversity. Here, we explore seven

Pro‐Vitamin A Biofortified Cavendish Banana: Trait Stability in the Field

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A deficiency (VAD), a major global health concern, has driven efforts to develop staple crops with enhanced pro‐vitamin A (pVA) content. Delivering meaningful nutritional benefits, however, requires technologies that maintain elevated carotenoid levels under field conditions. Previous proof‐of‐concept work demonstrated that pVA content

S2‐PepAnalyst: A Web Tool for Predicting Plant Small Signalling Peptides

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small signalling peptides (SSPs) serve as crucial mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication in plants, orchestrating diverse physiological processes from development to stress responses. While recent advances in sequencing technologies have improved genome annotation, the identification of novel SSPs remains challenging due to their small size ...
