Smartphone‐based proximal sensing as an accessible platform for improved physiological phenotyping

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract We tested whether smartphone‐based sensing could deliver accurate physiological traits in an accessible and low‐cost platform. A smartphone, carried by someone walking through a field, was used to generate a high‐resolution time series of images for 10 genotypes of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.).

Autonomous self‐pollination provides reproductive assurance, whereas insect pollination enhances yield in sesame under tropical field conditions

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 3, November 2026.
This study demonstrates that Sesamum indicum L. combines autonomous self‐pollination and insect‐mediated pollination under tropical field conditions. Autonomous self‐pollination provides reproductive assurance, whereas insect pollination increases grain yield by 28.6%, corresponding to a pollinator dependence of 22%.

Cover crop and termination date effects on wheat forage biomass, nutrient content, and profitability

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Cover crops are being encouraged due to benefits to soil health and ecosystem services, but they could negatively affect subsequent forage production and system profitability in regions with limited water availability. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of cover crop treatment and termination date on wheat (Triticum ...

Bio‐Based Potential of Phenolic‐Rich Fabaceae Seeds (Gonocytisus angulatus, Podocytisus caramanicus): Chemical Standardization, Functional Screening, and Molecular Insights

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study provides the first comparative phytochemical and functional evaluation of Gonocytisus angulatus and Podocytisus caramanicus seeds. Methanolic extracts showed richer phenolic profiles, while aqueous decoctions provided higher extraction yields. P. caramanicus exhibited strong ABTS radical scavenging activity.

The genome of cowpea ( Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2019
Summary Cowpea ( Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is a major crop for worldwide food and nutritional security, especially in sub‐Saharan Africa, that is resilient to hot and drought‐prone environments. An assembly of the single‐haplotype inbred genome of cowpea IT97K‐499‐35 was

Organic‐Microbial Strategies for Iron and Zinc Biofortification in Orange‐Fleshed Sweet Potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.]

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Orange‐fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) is valued for its provitamin A content but remains poor in iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). In a two‐season field trial in Senegal, combining locally available organic waste products (poultry litter, PL; sewage sludge, SS) with microbial inocula (beneficial microorganisms, BM; mycorrhizal fungi, MF) significantly improved ...

Role of Non‐Thermal Processing Technologies in Modulating Protein Allergenicity in Legumes

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Non‐thermal processing technologies (NTTs) reduce legumes' allergenicity while preserving quality and nutrients retention (PEF, pulsed electric field; CP, cold plasma; HPP, high pressure processing; US, ultrasound; IR, infrared). ABSTRACT The global shift toward plant‐based diets has increased legume consumption due to health and environmental benefits.
