Abstract Integrating legumes into turfgrass systems can reduce nitrogen fertilizer needs in urban landscapes through biological nitrogen fixation while enhancing plant biodiversity in urban lawns. However, the persistence and water requirements of these associations have not been evaluated in warm‐season lawns.

Abstract Grasslands are important terrestrial ecosystems that provide feed for livestock, support soil conservation and nutrient cycling, and store soil carbon (C). In many grazed grasslands, restricted nitrogen (N) inputs from fertilizers and minimal legume presence may constrain belowground biomass accumulation and soil C storage because of limited N.

Alternative approaches to turf systems: A review of pollinator‐friendly lawns
Abstract The global decline of pollinators, driven primarily by habitat loss due to urbanization and agricultural expansion, poses significant risks to biodiversity and food security. Turfgrass lawns, which dominate urban and suburban landscapes, offer a largely untapped opportunity to mitigate these declines by adopting pollinator‐friendly management ...

Rhizoma peanut root‐rhizome mass, growth, and decomposition under grazing or clipping management
Abstract Belowground plant structures are integral to nutrient cycling in grassland ecosystems. However, relative to herbage responses, few studies have examined the belowground dynamics of warm‐season perennial forages under different management practices.

Abstract Incorporating forage legumes into grass swards has the potential to enhance the sustainability of pasture systems and reduce reliance on nitrogen fertilizers. The aim of this study was to assess the on‐farm performance of bahiagrass (BG; Paspalum notatum Flüggé)–rhizoma peanut (RP; Arachis glabrata Benth.) mixtures compared to BG monocultures ...

Consumers’ preference on the food market has shifted from food safeguarded with artificial preservatives to that safeguarded with antimicrobial and antioxidant preservatives derived from natural sources. This is why there is a growing interest among researchers in the food and beverage industry to explore natural antimicrobial and antioxidant ...

When it comes to finding novel ways to battle newly developing pathogenic strains and illnesses, nanoparticles are the first line of defense. Plant‐based nanoparticles are showing more significance over chemically or physically synthesized nanoparticles. Several plant species and their constituent parts have found several applications in medicine. They

Abstract A‐type proanthocyanidins (PAs) are a subgroup of PAs that differ from B‐type PAs by the presence of an ether bond between two consecutive constitutive units. This additional C–O–C bond gives them a more stable and hydrophobic character. They are of increasing interest due to their potential multiple nutritional effects with low toxicity in ...
