Open Access Week 2022

Our RISE collection for Open Access Week 2022 addresses the theme Open for Climate Justice. Climate justice isn’t just about the crucial focus needed to tackle climate change, but about the unequal impact of climate change on vulnerable populations and generations. Open research enables the rapid sharing of critical information and encourages collaboration and dissemination across geographical, scientific, and economical boundaries – and is necessary for shaping the future of our planet.

To read blogs and interviews around this theme, visit our Wiley Network page.

Sustainable agricultural practices contribute significantly to One Health

Zhenzhen Yan,  Chao Xiong,  Hongwei Liu,  Brajesh K. Singh, 
Sustainable agricultural practices contribute significantly to One Health

This article use the nexus of soil, plant, and human microbiomes to discuss sustainable agricultural production from the One Health perspective. Three interconnected challenges are highlighted- the transmissions of pathogens in soil–human microbial loops, the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes in agroecosystems, and the impacts of chemical pesticides on humans and environmental health. Finally, we propose the potential of utilising microbiomes for better sustainable agronomic practices to contribute to key goals of the One Health concept.
