Characterizing the fine‐scale spatial distribution of soil phosphorus for efficient phosphorus management in an Illinois tile‐drained field

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Closed depressions in post‐glacial landscapes can accumulate phosphorus (P) due to repeated flooding and become hotspots for P loss when underlain by subsurface (tile) drainage. Soil P mapping is routinely based on the interpolation of samples from a 1‐ha grid, which may miss closed depressions and underestimate soil P levels leading to ...

Validation and use of the dead‐end ultrafiltration method for the capture and recovery of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli from surface water

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Root cause analysis following microbial water contamination events typically relies upon the collection of large sample volumes. Dead‐end ultrafiltration (DEUF) is an efficient method for sampling and transporting up to 100 L of water from field environments. A single‐lab validation (SLV) using DEUF to recover Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia

The key role of local and global farmer networks in the development of conservation agriculture in California

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract This article chronicles the history of California's Conservation Agriculture Systems Innovation (CASI) Center and how it has increased agricultural sustainability in the San Joaquin Valley, a major production area for the United States, by using agroecological practices to reduce soil erosion and conserve soil moisture, champion systems ...

Testing Wisconsin P index assessments across cropping systems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Managing agricultural runoff phosphorus (P) often requires understanding management effects on both dissolved P (DP) and particulate (sediment‐bound) P (PP). The Wisconsin P index (WPI) allows producers to assess land management effects on runoff P by estimating annual P losses in mass per unit area.

Integrated characterization of Greek fennel genotypes through morpho‐agronomical characteristics, yield components and phytochemical compounds

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 91-103, March 2025.
Abstract Background Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) is a widely cultivated vegetable and aromatic‐medicinal plant. In this research, field studies assessed 12 fennel genotypes of diverse origin, comprising 10 Greek accessions and two European commercial varieties, focusing on their morpho‐agronomical traits, phenolic compounds and antioxidant ...

Analysis of plant science higher education reveals mixed provision which falls short of delivering national priorities

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 78-90, March 2025.
Abstract Background Many reports from the UK government and other organisations highlight a need for a plant aware workforce, and some enumerate specific areas of plant science where there is a skills shortage. We have undertaken a systematic analysis of the content of degree programmes that advertise as teaching plant biology to determine if the UK ...

Chemical composition of wild populations of Thymus vulgaris and Satureja montana in central Catalonia, Spain

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study is devoted to determining the chemical composition of essential oils obtained from 13 wild populations of thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) and 14 populations of winter savory (Satureja montana L.) from the Solsonès region of Catalonia, Spain. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation using a Clevenger apparatus, and

Yield stability of water yam (Dioscorea alata L) landraces compared to improved varieties across multiple environments and their culinary qualities in the Republic of Benin

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In the Republic of Benin, the fresh yam market has two key periods: a time of high availability from August to February, followed by a scarcity from March to July. Fortunately, when Dioscorea rotundata fresh tubers become scarce and expensive, Dioscorea alata (commonly known as Agaabidjan/ Florido) pervades the market and provides a
