GhTTLL12 Coordinates With Transcriptional Regulators GhMML3 and GhMYB86 to Orchestrate Cotton Fibre Development Through Modulating Microtubule Dynamics

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microtubules (MTs) are crucial for cell division, growth, development and morphogenesis in plants. Cotton fibres are single‐celled trichomes that originate from the epidermal cells of the ovule, making them an excellent model for studying plant cell differentiation and rapid elongation.

Evaluation of Different Cropping Systems for Marginal Uplands in Inopacan, Leyte

Annals of Tropical Research, 2014
Low crop productivity in most marginal uplands is primarily due to poor agro-ecological conditions. There is a need to improve farming practices of upland farmers to improve their quality of life thus, the study was conducted in the marginal uplands of ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Alternative approaches to dryland reclamation enhance vegetation cover and soil stability at a former uranium mine

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Conventional reclamation methods to recover dryland ecosystems after mineral extraction often have low success. Alternative reclamation techniques may help overcome the many challenges to establishing persistent native vegetation and stable soils.

Rethinking ‘Hill‐Valley Divide’ in Darjeeling District, India: An Autoethnographic Approach to Highland Identities

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the Hill‐Valley divide in Darjeeling district, West Bengal, India, where Nepali‐speaking hill communities coexist with Bengali‐speaking valley populations. It argues that this division is a colonial construct, shaped by British policies that romanticised the hills as a ‘mini‐England’ while separating them from the valley

Making space for living and livelihoods in Vietnam: The everyday politics of peri‐urban land use

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
Preserving agricultural land for rice cultivation in Vietnam is a national priority. Yet in many areas, farmers continue to repurpose rice land for non‐agricultural uses in violation of state regulations. Drawing on the conceptual framework of ‘everyday politics’ (EP), this paper examines this tension through research conducted in two peri‐urban ...

Kinship and reproduction: A perspective of the Akha in Laos

The 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 ...

Integrating cover crops to enhance abaca (Musa textilis Nee) production in Leyte, East‐Central Philippines

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Abaca (Musa textilis Nee) is a fiber crop, closely related to banana (Musa sp.). However, it requires 15–18 months from transplanting to first harvest, leaving the soil between plants vulnerable to erosion or weed infestation. Integrating cover crops into abaca plantations may help mitigate these issues.

Use of ethyl-trinexapac in upland rice cultivars

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2012
O acamamento de plantas em cultivares de arroz, no momento da colheita, acarreta perdas significativas à produtividade. O uso de reguladores vegetais é uma das alternativas para reduzir o acamamento, entretanto, as informações sobre este assunto ainda são escassas.

Advancing Thermotolerance in Beans: Integrating Physiology, Genomics, and Breeding for Climate Adaptation

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising global temperatures increasingly threaten bean production and the food security of millions of people who depend on these protein‐rich legumes. Heat stress during the reproductive stages induces pollen sterility, flower abscission, and disruptions in source–sink relationships, resulting in yield losses of 30%–40% or more when critical ...
