Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

- ABSTRACTSugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches,...

KAS?Seq Captures Global Transcription Dynamics and Active Single?Stranded Enhancers in Rice

- ABSTRACTRice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among...

Designed Alleles of ZmRap2.7 Decouple the Trade?Off Between Early Flowering and Yield Penalty

- ABSTRACTFlowering time genes often exhibit pleiotropic effects. In particular, early flowering is frequently associated with reduced grain yield due to a shorter growth period. This trade?off poses a...

Irrigation Expansion in the US Corn Belt: Patterns and Yield Impacts

14/05/2026 - AbstractAgricultural irrigation is steadily expanding in the traditionally non?irrigated US Corn Belt, a globally important region for maize and soybean production. While irrigation boosts crop...

Introgression of a Terminal Segment From Chromosome 3S of Festuca mairei Increases Drought Resistance of Lolium perenne

- ABSTRACTDue to climate change, the requirement for increased resilience by grassland systems to onsets of ever?increasing drought stresses makes the development of drought?resistant forage crops a...

Scattered tree species’ leaf litter quality and impact on soil properties in enset homegardens of South Ethiopia: a case for conserving old trees

- Enset (Ensete ventricosum) is among the under-researched African crops that serve as a staple food crop in South Ethiopia. Despite potential benefits, tree species are rarely integrated into enset...

Stewards to the obscure: repositioning the ecological agency of culinary knowledge through the Uraali Kuruma tribe of Southern India

- The current discourse on ecological governance and sustainability often concludes at the point of cultivation. The post-harvest practices that mark the actual outcome of the agricultural labor are...

Improving food security through indoor vertical farming of microgreens: a trendy fad or a promising solution? A review

- Global food systems face unprecedented pressure from climate change, resource scarcity, and population growth, intensifying food insecurity and malnutrition, particularly in regions with limited...

On the impact of light spectrum on lettuce biophysics: a dynamic growth model for vertical farming

12/05/2026 - Current crop growth models, whether process-based or data-driven, rarely incorporate spectral light composition, limiting their applicability in highly controlled environments such as vertical...

Mapping the flow of conservation information across Wisconsin farming communities: Evidence from a social network analysis

- AbstractAdoption of conservation practices in US agriculture remains limited despite demonstrated environmental and social benefits. Farmer demonstration programmes aim to accelerate conservation...

Pixel?level supervision resolves overlap: Benchmarking YOLOv12 segmentation for accurate multi?cluster dry bean stand counting from time series unoccupied aerial systems imagery

- AbstractAn agronomic trait such as stand count is important for cultivar development and crop management practices. Manually counting the number of plants is time consuming, labor?intensive, and...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme glucan 1,4???maltohydrolase from the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain DP?Dzb115

- AbstractThe food enzyme glucan 1,4???maltohydrolase (4???d?glucan ??maltohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.133) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain DP?Dzb115 by Genencor...

Strengthening livelihoods of smallholder farm women through pluralistic extension approaches–case studies from Karnataka, India

- Women play a critical role in India’s agricultural sector, particularly in horticulture, yet remain inadequately served by extension services and excluded from decision-making and access to key...

China’s “Insurance + Futures” model can it alleviate farmers’ anxiety and stabilize global food supplies?

- Against the backdrop of global food crises and intensifying climate risks, farmers’ production anxiety has become a significant psychological factor threatening food security. Based on the Theory...

Prediction of maize yield on saline soils using Sentinel-2 remote sensing data in the Shaulder irrigated area, Kazakhstan

- Soil salinization is a major factor limiting crop productivity in irrigated agricultural systems under arid climatic conditions. This study aims to develop an early prediction method for maize yield...

Sustainable nutrient bioformulations derived from floral waste for improving growth performance of Trigonella foenum-graecum L.

- Floral residues are generated in large quantities but are commonly discarded, despite their richness in macro- and micro-nutrients. In this study, we explored the conversion of floral waste into...

Full replacement of dietary wheat flour with pea starch concentrate enhances immunity without affecting growth in Pacific white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei)

- Shrimp aquaculture is expanding globally but faces challenges regarding the rising costs of feed ingredients. In shrimp nutrition, carbohydrates play a vital role by exerting a “protein-sparing”...
