Host‐associated beneficial gut microbiota boosts induced immunity and limits immune deployment costs in bumblebees

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 217-229, January 2026.
Our work demonstrates a key role for host‐associated microbiota in the realization of induced immune defense, and contributes more broadly to our understanding of microbiota‐immune interactions in the context of ecological immunology. Abstract Ecological immunology posits that variation in host resistance to infection may be attributed partly to the ...

How Management Practices Shape the “Local Habitat Signature” That Modulates Bird Communities in Urban Green Spaces

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Local scale factors, not just the broad urban gradient, are the key drivers of urban bird communities. Our multi‐scale study found that specific management practices, such as managing leaf litter depth or the presence of unmanaged tall grass, explained the largest portion of variation in bird composition.

Concurrent Response of Soybean to Fixed (Full and Limited) and Variable Rate Irrigation Management in Three Soil Types: II. Growth, Yield, Evapotranspiration and Water Productivity

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 74, Issue 5, Page 1874-1888, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Soybean growth, yield, crop evapotranspiration (ETc) and crop water use efficiency (CWUE or crop water productivity, CWP) under different irrigation levels in three different soil types in the same field were investigated concurrently. Treatments in each soil type were: (i) variable rate irrigation (VRI), (ii) fixed rate full irrigation (FR‐1″)

Agronomic Performance and Water Use Indicators of Cactus Species Widely Cultivated in Semiarid Regions

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 74, Issue 5, Page 2156-2173, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the agronomic performance, crop evapotranspiration (ETc), crop coefficients (Kc, Kcb and Ke) and yield response factor (Ky) of three forage cactus clones—Orelha de Elefante Mexicana (OEM), Miúda (MIU) and IPA Sertânia (IPA)—grown in a semiarid environment.

Rewarding Farm‐level Environmental Outcomes – an Indicator Based Approach Récompenser les résultats environnementaux au niveau de l’exploitation agricole – une approche fondée sur des indicateurs Belohnung für Umweltleistungen auf Betriebsebene – ein indikatorbasierter Ansatz

EuroChoices, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 26-34, December 2025.
Summary Many agricultural, agri‐environmental and organic support payments are paid at a flat‐rate per hectare that does not reflect actual environmental outcomes on farms. We propose an indicator‐based approach using a combination of result and action (proxy) based indicators to assess overall environmental outcomes at farm‐level as a basis for future
