<jats:p>A universal method for classifying neuronal subtypes will increase our understanding of the human brain.</jats:p>

<jats:p>A global look at the uses, benefits, and drawbacks of pesticides.</jats:p>

<jats:p>A new generation of genetically modified crops will kill insects by silencing their genes.</jats:p>

<jats:p>For decades, Australia's wheat farmers have had the worst weed problem in the world. Now, nonchemical weapons are helping to turn the tide.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Convincing Vietnamese rice farmers to use less pesticide came down to letting them see the benefits for themselves.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Pesticide ingestion accounts for one-third of the world's suicides. Can a simple plastic lockbox keep toxic chemicals out of desperate people's hands?</jats:p>

<jats:p>Long-term studies of the effects of pesticides and other environmental chemicals on the very young brain are coming up with worrisome results.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Crop protection chemistry has come a long way from its “alchemic” beginnings in the late 19th century to a high-tech science that supports the sustainable production of food, feed, and fiber for a rapidly growing population. Cutting-edge developments in the design and synthesis of agrochemicals help to tackle today’s challenges of weed and pest resistance, higher regulatory safety margins, and higher cost of goods with the invention of selective, environmentally benign, low use rate, and cost-effective active ingredients.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Diverse and rapidly evolving pathogens cause plant diseases and epidemics that threaten crop yield and food security around the world. Research over the last 25 years has led to an increasingly clear conceptual understanding of the molecular components of the plant immune system. Combined with ever-cheaper DNA-sequencing technology and the rich diversity of germ plasm manipulated for over a century by plant breeders, we now have the means to begin development of durable (long-lasting) disease resistance beyond the limits imposed by conventional breeding and in a manner that will replace costly and unsustainable chemical controls.</jats:p>
