maxRgain—An R Package for Maximising Genetic Gains in Polyclonal Selection

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyclonal selection, which was developed in the context of ancient grapevine varieties, uses intravarietal variability to improve the resilience and sustainability of viticulture. Based on quantitative genetics and linear mixed models, this approach predicts genotypic effects to select a group of clones that, as a whole, satisfy target ...

A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...

Hydrological restoration of coastal wetlands: optimizing site selection and implementation strategies

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands, despite their importance in providing ecosystem services like carbon sequestration, water quality improvement, and coastal protection, have suffered extensive degradation and loss in the past two centuries. Hydrological restoration of these degraded ecosystems presents an emerging opportunity for mitigating and ...

Limited effects of structural restoration on ecosystem functioning in an urban tropical stream

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Hydromorphological restoration through structural interventions is commonly used to mitigate urbanization impacts on lotic freshwater systems, but their effects on ecosystem functioning in urban tropical streams remain unexplored.

Kinship and reproduction: A perspective of the Akha in Laos

open access: yesThe Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on fieldwork among the Akha people in Phongsaly District, Phongsaly Province, northern Laos, this paper examines Akha patrilineal kinship and its links to reproduction. The Akha people's reproductive decisions and behaviours are shaped by patrilineality, ancestral connections and cultural–spiritual perceptions of reproduction, which ...

High‐throughput phenotyping for the prediction and quantification of flower‐related traits in sugarcane

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.), a C4 plant, is a vital renewable biofuel and sugar source for industries worldwide. However, synchronizing flowering between parental lines often poses challenges for breeders, hindering effective crossbreeding efforts.
