Running towards: Labour market incentives for runaway slaves in the British Cape Colony, 1830–1838

Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent scholarship on slave escapes has increasingly emphasised economic motivation, but few studies have empirically investigated how market incentives influenced the decision‐making of enslaved individuals during transitions from coerced to wage labour.

Wild microbial communities shaping the spontaneous fermentation of biodynamic Malbec wine

OENO One
Prior to the industrialisation of winemaking, spontaneous fermentation was the only option available to wineries, relying exclusively on native micro-organisms from the vineyard due to the absence of commercial inoculants.

Vineyard management systems influence on mycorrhizal fungi

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a vital role in sustainable viticulture by enhancing nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and soil health. This research explored both the effects of vineyard management on AMF diversity and the functional impact of ...

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Groundcovers Alter Vineyard Soil Microbiomes Within and Beyond Their Rooting Zones

Phytobiomes Journal
Groundcovers are increasingly planted in perennial cropping systems to improve soil health. In vineyards, grass groundcovers can influence many edaphic properties, yet the effects of these groundcovers on bulk soil microbiomes remain unclear. We examined

Key agroecosystems for the conservation of amphibians and reptiles in Europe

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural expansion and intensification are driving amphibian and reptile declines worldwide. However, sustainably managed agroecosystems can support a high diversity of herpetofauna, which play a key role in pest control, reducing crop damage.

Plastic covering and double pruning mitigate climate challenges in cv. Sauvignon blanc vineyards

OENO One
Advances in viticultural management techniques have become increasingly important for mitigating the effects of challenging climatic conditions. The double-pruning technique is already widely used in Brazilian vineyards, enabling a shift of the harvest ...

Comparative Toxicity of Bordeaux Mixture by Ingestion and Cuticular Contact Under Climate Change Conditions on Trichogramma cordubensis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In the face of environmental contamination to copper, mainly resulting from frequent copper‐based fungicide applications, it is crucial to understand the side effects of these pesticides on non‐target organisms to improve pest management. Trichogramma cordubensis, used as a biological control agent against grape berry moths in vineyards, shows strongly

Natural Parasitism of Nezara viridula (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) by Trichopoda pictipennis Bigot (Diptera: Tachinidae) in an Organic Strawberry Field in Germany

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Natural parasitism of the invasive southern green stinkbug was recorded in an organic strawberry cropping system in southwestern Germany. The tachinid fly Trichopoda pictipennis shows successful establishment and field activity, indicating ongoing range expansion.
