Contribution of agroecosystems to the conservation of bird diversity in the department of Caldas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In tropical regions, the contributions and limitations of agroecosystems have been identified with respect to bird diversity conservation. It has been suggested that agroecosystems can have different conservation values, according to the structural ...

Rotating intercrops in continuous maize cultivation: effect on the soil macronutrient content and aggregate stability

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science
This study investigated whether intercrops from different botanical families can mitigate soil degradation in a continuous maize cultivation system. Maize was grown together with species from the Fabaceae, Poaceae, and Brassicaceae families, while inter ...

Impact of multi-cropping on some soil physical properties, nutrient proportion and enzymatic activity

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science
Crop growing with multifunctional companions can maintain soil fertility and agrotechnological inputs, but the combinations of multi-crops are still not sufficiently investigated.

Interactions between spring wheat (Triticum aestivum ssp. vulgare L.) and undersown Persian clover (Trifolium resupinatum L.) depending on growth stage and plant density

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2016
A pot experiment was conducted in the years 2010–2012. The competitive interactions between spring wheat and undersown Persian clover, depending on plant density have been established.

Factors affecting the net ecosystem productivity of agroecosystems on mineral soils: a meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
To optimize agricultural land management for soil carbon sequestration, it is necessary to identify whether agroecosystems are accumulating or gaining carbon. This can be done by determining an agroecosystem’s net ecosystem productivity (NEP). This study

Herbicide Metabolic Resistance in Poaceae Plants via the GA‐GID1/DELLA‐DOF2‐P450s Module

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant hormone signaling modulates herbicide resistance in Echinochloa crus‐galli. The GA–DELLA–DOF2 cascade directly activates P450 detoxification genes in two Poaceae species, uncovering a core mechanism of metabolic herbicide resistance. ABSTRACT Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus‐galli) is one of the world's most important weeds, and the evolution of ...

Asymmetric Evolution of Antennal Cell Types Underlies a Derived Ammonia‐Sensing Logic for Ecological Adaptation in Bactrocera dorsalis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Comparative antennal single‐nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell‐type‐dependent transcriptomic divergence in Bactrocera dorsalis, with similar structural cells but divergent sensory neurons. This neuronal diversification is associated with a distinct ammonia‐sensing pathway, linking female attraction to bird‐dropping‐associated cues with nutritional ...

Biomass formation and yield performance in diverse multicrops and their potential for biofuel use in short-growing boreal climate conditions

open access: yesScientific Reports
Herbaceous plant biomass is an important resource for energy production and an effective strategy to ensure energy supply independence. Growing agricultural plant mixtures (multicrops) contributes to increasing biomass yields, enhancing farm biodiversity,
