Colonization and spatiotemporal distribution of bruchid pests in lentil and faba bean fields

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5780-5794, June 2026.
This study of 104 fields identifies Bruchus signaticornis in lentils and B. rufimanus in faba beans as the sole grain‐damaging species. Their uniform distribution within fields and the strong effect of regulatory factors on larvae and egg survival emphasize the need for species‐specific, phenology‐based and spatially informed integrated pest management

Short‐Term Response of Soil Health Indicators to Cover Crop Management in Small‐Scale Vegetable Cropping Systems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT A 2‐year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted on a clay loam soil in Quebec, Canada, to evaluate the short‐term effect of spring‐seeded cover crop termination methods on soil health indicators. A mixture of field peas (Pisum sativum L.) with oats (Avena sativa L.) in 2022 and with faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in 2023 was seeded in early ...

Fully Organic Agroforestry Practices in Rice Cultivation: Effects on Soil Bacterial Microbiota, Soil Health and Grain Quality

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sustainable practices are increasingly recognised for benefiting soil biodiversity, health, and overall grain quality. This study examined a unique rice agroecosystem adopting fully organic practices and agroforestry through a seasonal characterisation of soil bacterial microbiota and physicochemical parameters.

Legume cover crops ameliorate soil acidity and enhance nutrient availability in South African sugarcane fields

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sugarcane is a drought-sensitive crop that is particularly vulnerable during the vegetative growth stage under rainfed conditions. The study aimed to investigate how climate influences soil nutrients, pH, and exchangeable acidity (EA) in South African ...

Sensory Assessment of Pressure‐Cooked and Pureed Faba Bean Cultivars: The Contribution of Cotyledon and Seed Coat Constituents Toward the Perception of Sensory Attributes

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Whole beans and cotyledons from three faba bean cultivars, Malik, Fabelle, and Snowbird, were processed into purees through a sequence of soaking, blanching, hot filling, pressure cooking, and blending. Purees prepared from whole beans were centrifuged, and the supernatants were collected. A trained sensory panel evaluated the aroma, flavor, taste, and

Significant resource niche overlap between competing parasitoids does not prevent their successful co‐existence

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1632-1643, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Different species that exploit the same resources can sometimes co‐exist in the same habitat through resource sharing. For example, if resources are superabundant, then they can be easily partitioned interspecifically among different individuals. However, when resources

Management of dry calcareous grasslands drives pollinator communities through availability of key forage plants

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Pollinator conservation in calcareous grasslands should prioritize enhancing local patch quality while promoting landscape heterogeneity, including woody SNH. To improve forage quality, our analytical approach supports targeted grassland management in selecting key forage plants, promoting complementary and diverse floral assemblages that support ...

Pyrethroid Resistance in Frankliniella intonsa From Inner Mongolia: Evidence for kdr Mutation and Metabolic Involvement

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT To evaluate population‐specific susceptibility to pyrethroid insecticides, four field populations of Frankliniella intonsa collected from alfalfa fields in Inner Mongolia were assessed using ingestion and contact bioassays. Four pyrethroids—bifenthrin, cyfluthrin, cypermethrin, and deltamethrin—were tested.
