Hairy Roadblock: Stem Trichomes Impede Herbivore Movement in a Species and Instar‐Dependent Manner

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 728-735, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants have evolved to deploy a vast set of defence mechanisms against insect herbivores, including physical barriers like leaf trichomes with pre and post ingestive effects. Yet, the role of stem trichomes in plant‐herbivore interactions, particularly mobility dynamics, is poorly understood.

Drought and Herbivory Drive Physiological and Phytohormonal Changes in Soybean (Glycine max Merril): Insights From a Meta‐Analysis

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4041-4053, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...

Henbit is an attainable cover crop

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Henbit is a short‐season plant that grows through the winter. It seeds itself in the spring with seeds that stay dormant through the summer and germinate in the fall. Winter growth makes henbit a good cover crop for the offseason of summer cash crops. Abstract Henbit (Lamium amplexicaule L.) is a potential cover crop in the Central United States, but ...
