Strategic inter-cropping for saline agriculture: quantifying the impact of Medicago sativa–Festuca arundinacea ratios on soil properties and crop performance [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Soil salinization is an abiotic stress that hinders crop growth, agricultural productivity, and environmental protection. In this study, alfalfa (Medicago sativa) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) were sown in seven inter-cropping ratios, with ...

Transgenic Expression of Confers Enhanced Tolerance to Abiotic Stresses in Tall Fescue [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2012
Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is an important cool season forage plant that is not well suited to extreme heat, salts, or heavy metals. To develop transgenic tall fescue plants with enhanced tolerance to abiotic stress, we introduced an ...

Grass–Legume Mixtures Show Potential to Increase Above- and Belowground Biomass Production for Andean Forage-Based Fallows

Agronomy, 2022
Soils of the Andean highlands are under threat from cropping system intensification. Improved forage-based fallows offer great promise to address this issue, but research is needed to better understand the potential of species mixtures vs.

Mixture of Alfalfa, Orchardgrass, and Tall Fescue Produces Greater Biomass Yield in Southwest China

Agronomy, 2022
The current study investigated the influence of mixture composition on the biomass yield and early establishment of legume–grass mixtures. The legume species alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. (A)), white clover (Trifolium repens L.

Four Haylages, One Metabonome: Defining Diet Driven Metabolic Shifts in Ponies

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haylage is widely fed to all categories of stabled horses across Europe and New Zealand. Haylage can vary from high energy nutrient dense forage to low energy highly fibrous fodder, yet little is known about the impact different haylages have on metabolism in horses.

Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

Suppression of soil microbiota rather than neighbours facilitates absinthe Artemisia absinthium invasion in native grasslands

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Many mechanisms can lead to successful plant invasion, but their importance is often context dependent. One such mechanism is allelopathy: chemical inhibition of neighbouring plants. The importance of allelopathy may be mediated by soil microbiota and environmental conditions, and depend upon the species or functional group affected.
