Elimination of FRDL1, a xylem‐located citrate transporter, confers tolerance to excess unchelated ferrous iron through an exclusion mechanism in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Knock‐down of a xylem‐localized citrate transporter, FRDL1, reduces foliar iron concentrations and leaf symptoms under excess ferrous iron stress in rice. Abstract Iron (Fe) toxicity is a common agricultural problem that limits rice yield in various regions of Southeast Asia and Africa.

The Impact of an Integrated steM Camp on Middle School Students' Enjoyment, Career Knowledge, and Career Interest

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Much of the work in STEM camps tends to be science‐driven with little attention given to mathematics. Guided by a mixed methods embedded research design using data from observations, questionnaires, and a group interview, we investigate if a camp that explicitly integrates mathematics had a positive impact on middle school students' STEM ...

Insects control prickly pear cactus

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1968
A considerable degree of control of prickly pear cacti has been achieved on Santa Cruz Island rangeland, as a result of ecological manipulation: primarily, through the introduction of an effective natural insect enemy of the prickly pear; and secondarily,

Biological Pesticides as Viable Alternative to Synthetic Pesticides for Sustainable Agriculture and Nutrition: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The overuse of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has raised significant environmental and health concerns. Biopesticides have emerged as viable, environmentally compatible alternatives. However, recent comprehensive reviews integrating all biopesticide categories and emphasizing their contribution to synthetic‐pesticide‐free and health‐safe ...

Continuous Stem Water Potential Measurements With Microtensiometry Reveal Species Identity and Soil Matric Potential Control of Stem Water Potential in Temperate Forests

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water potential gradients govern water fluxes, and plants respond with species‐specific hydraulic traits that influence ecosystem function. While understanding these traits is key to predicting vegetation responses to climate change, traditional methods like the pressure chamber limit temporal resolution and continuity.

Butia catarinensis as a Sustainable Ingredient in Brazilian Mead: Chemical Properties, Volatile Composition, Sensory Profile and Consumer Acceptance

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mead is a fermented alcoholic beverage traditionally produced with honey, water, and yeast, with possible variations through the addition of fruits or spices. Butia catarinensis is a native Brazilian fruit with high sensory appeal, traditionally used in cachaça but underexplored in fermented beverages.

Pollinator Visitation Alters Cranberry Flower Fungal Communities in Wisconsin Cranberry Agroecosystems

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
A two‐year study reveals shared fungal communities between cranberry flowers and insect visitors, including Apis mellifera, Bombus species, solitary bees and hover flies. Greater fungal richness was present in pollinator‐accessible flowers compared to those that were tented.

Multifaceted roles of BBX transcription factors: impacts on key agronomical traits and environmental resilience

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 762-787, April 2026.
Summary B‐box (BBX) proteins were initially characterized as transcription factors connecting light signaling to the regulation of flowering time and seedling photomorphogenesis. However, over the last decade, increasing evidence has shown that they integrate light and hormone signaling, modulating multiple physiological processes during plant life. In

WRKY27‐RAP2.7 Regulatory Module Promotes Cold Tolerance via Modulation of Lignin Biosynthesis and Redox Homeostasis by Regulating Cinnamyl Alcohol Dehydrogenase 7 and Glutathione S‐Transferase F6

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2021-2039, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold stress adversely affects plant growth and development, significantly limiting fruit yield and quality in citrus. Ichang papeda (Citrus ichangensis), a cold‐tolerant citrus species, serves as a valuable genetic resource for studying cold adaptation, yet the key genes and their modes of action underlying the cold stress response remain ...
