Nutrient supply to reed canary grass as a bioenergy crop [PDF]

, 2012
Production of renewable energy from herbaceous crops on agricultural land is of great interest since fossil fuels need to be replaced with sustainable energy sources. Reed canary grass (RCG), Phalaris arundinacea L.

Selection for persistence of endophyte‐free meadow fescue under intensive grazing versus frequent mowing

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Cattle grazing meadow fescue pasture in remnant oak savanna near Fennimore, Wisconsin. Abstract Background Meadow fescue (Schedonorus pratensis (Huds.) P. Beauv.) is highly adapted to managed rotational grazing systems with sufficient rest periods to promote regrowth and sward longevity.

Evolutionary patterns and structural divergence of CENH3 in legumes: Implications for haploid induction breeding

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
From structure to application: evolutionary insights and genome editing strategies for CENH3‐mediated haploid induction in legumes. Abstract Background The centromeric histone variant CENH3 is crucial for chromosome segregation and haploid induction in plants, yet its evolutionary patterns in legumes remain poorly characterized. Methods We investigated

Plant analysis as a tool to determine crop nitrogen status [PDF]

, 2007
An effective plant nutrient management strategy optimises nitrogen (N) use efficiency for minimised environmental impact, while ensuring an optimum N status of the crop for good product quality and maximum growth.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Response of Sunflower Yield and Phytohormonal Changes to Azotobacter,Azospirillum,Pseudomonas and Animal Manure in a Chemical Free Agroecosystem [PDF]

, 2011
There are new trends in agriculture to move toward the low input systems with the lower application of chemical fertilizers. To reach this goal, different methods, such as the application of biofertilizers, may be used.

Transforming Agricultural Water Management Through the Water–Energy–Food Nexus: Trends, Opportunities, Barriers and Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural water management (AWM) is increasingly transitioning towards transformative thinking, where interconnected sectors, including water, energy and food, are managed holistically. Trends point towards cross‐sectoral and harmonised strategies to optimise water use efficiency and productivity, integrate renewable energy, promote ...

Yield, Evapotranspiration, Production Functions, Crop Coefficients, Water Productivity and Soil‐Water Extraction of Three Watermelon Varieties

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While watermelon is an important commodity in the United States and worldwide, some of the fundamental watermelon productivity indices (crop evapotranspiration [ETc], transpiration [Tr], evaporation [E], ET‐yield production functions [ETYPF], basal crop coefficients [Kcb], crop water productivity [CWP], soil‐water extraction [SWE]) have not ...

Infiltration and short-term movement of nitrogen in a silt-loam soil typical of rice cultivation in Arkansas [PDF]

, 2006
Rice production in Arkansas is one of the top three crop commodities in terms of cash receipts. Researchers and farmers report that nitrogen (N) needs to be managed according to a variety of factors with two important ones being soil and fertilizer type.
