Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Integrating image‐based phenotyping and marker‐assisted selection to optimize the selection of potato clones for chipping and resistance to viruses X and Y

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the most important non‐cereal crop for global food security. To meet the demands of the processing, potato clones with good frying quality and industrial yield and resistance to major viral diseases are required. This study aimed to integrate image‐based phenotyping and marker‐assisted selection to optimize the

Current and Future Potential Distribution of the Invasive Thrips Echinothrips americanus (Terebrantia: Thripidae) Under Global Climate Change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study predicted the potential global distribution of invasive pest Echinothrips americanus using MaxEnt models, revealing its primary habitats concentrated in Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Africa (total area ~ 3.41 × 107 km2). Under future climate scenarios, marginally suitable areas are projected to contract significantly, while ...

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and

Cultivating biophilia: Domestic gardens foster positive emotions towards wildlife, with gardening influence shaped by species' ecological functions

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1218-1232, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding how different types of nature interactions influence emotional responses to animal species is especially important in the context of the biodiversity crisis, as these emotions can shape conservation‐related attitudes and behaviours. Gardening is recognised as one such interaction, although its influence likely depends on the type

Combining social, ecological and economic approaches in knowledge co‐production enables the identification of sustainable farming options

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1261-1279, May 2026.
Abstract Farming systems face an increasing sustainability challenge requiring integrated solutions to minimize the trade‐offs between the social, ecological and economic dimensions of sustainability. Yet, most research remains siloed, limiting interdisciplinary understanding of farming systems as coupled social‐ecological systems (SESs) and precluding
