DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7497
Abstract: Abstract Evidence of the effects of agriculture on natural systems is widespread, but potential evolutionary responses in nontarget species are largely uncharacterized. To explore whether exposure to agrochemicals may influence selective pressures and phenotypic expression… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvab049
Abstract: Abstract A potential barrier to the establishment of weed biological control agents is interference from other management tactics that induce plant defenses. Methods that suppress the weed such as feeding by other biological control agents… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/mbio.00433-18
Abstract: While rhizosphere bacteria hold the potential to improve plant health and fitness, little is known about the bacterial genes required to evade host immunity. Using a model system consisting of Arabidopsis and a beneficial Pseudomonas… read more here.
