Aflatoxin B1 occurrence and risk estimation to human health associated with agricultural practices in peanut production systems

Food Safety and Risk
Aflatoxin contamination in peanuts is a significant health risk to consumers due to its carcinogenic nature. In this study, the concentration of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in peanut kernels and the associated risk of hepatocarcinoma were evaluated across ...

Perennial clovers and ryegrasses as understorey crops in cereals [PDF]

, 2003
Perennial crops undersown in cereals provide ground cover from harvest of the cereal crop to sowing of the next crop. Such cover crops can e.g. reduce soil erosion, nutrient leaching and N fertiliser requirements of the succeeding crop.

Nitrogen and sulphur management: challenges for organic sources in temperate agricultural systems [PDF]

, 2005
A current global trend towards intensification or specialization of agricultural enterprises has been accompanied by increasing public awareness of associated environmental consequences. Air and water pollution from losses of nutrients, such as nitrogen (

BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE Genes Enable Genetic Bottleneck Mitigation Through Cross‐Species Repurposing of Floral Persistence Traits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that BLADE‐ON‐PETIOLE (BOP) proteins regulate floral abscission and senescence in tomato by interacting with TFAM1 to form transcriptional condensates controlling the ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA HOMEOBOX GENE 1 (ATH1)‐mediated abscission pathway.

3D Chromatin Architecture Provides Insights Into Leaf Trait Variation Among Pear Species

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three‐dimensional (3D) chromatin architecture plays a fundamental role in eukaryotic gene regulations, its functional significance in perennial fruit trees remains poorly characterized despite extensive applications in crop genomics. Here, we developed high‐resolution (∼5 kb) Hi‐C maps of Pyrus and compared 3D genomic architecture of three ...

Comparing the reliability of maize variety data from on-farm trials and experimental stations

Journal für Kulturpflanzen, 2014
While current variety recommendations are based on replicated small-plot trials in a specific region for which the trial is thought to be representative, genotype × envi­ronment interactions, genotype × management interactions, and increasing weather ...

Effect of Deficit Irrigation on Yield and Water Use Efficiency of Maize at Selekleka District, Ethiopia [PDF]

, 2020
Irrigation water availability is diminishing in many areas of the Ethiopian regions, which require many irrigators to consider deficit-irrigation strategy. This study investigated the response of maize (Zea mays L.) to moisture deficit under conventional,
