Solar farms can mitigate negative impacts of whiplash weather on plant communities in a dryland ecosystem

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Utility‐scale solar energy (USSE) development generates novel questions regarding coupling clean energy production with terrestrial ecosystem services (e.g., forage production, pollinator support). We found that a USSE array sited in a fallowed cropland maintained a reseeded native plant community even a decade post‐restoration and that the array ...

Using ecoinformatics to evaluate the impact of crop and herbicide rotations on herbicide intensity

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Maize fields with cotton in rotation receive lower herbicide application than fields without cotton. Abstract BACKGROUND Crop rotation is a central component of integrated weed management (IWM) under real‐world conditions, yet its impact on herbicide use remains unclear. To address this challenge, we developed an ecoinformatics‐driven analysis approach

The influence of meteorological conditions and topographic parameters on the beech forest microclimate of Simbruini Mountains, central Italy

open access: yes, 1997
The relation between vegetation surface temperature and remotely sensed spectral vegetation indices has been examined by a number of authors. The observed linear decrease in surface temperature with the increase in vegetation cover density has generally ...

Non-destructive analysis of photosynthetic pigments in Avena strigosa and Avena sativa

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Crop Science, 2019
Chlorophylls and carotenoids are the main photosynthetic pigments in plants. The photosynthetic potential of crop plants is used to determine the correct rate of nitrogen fertilization. To date, no studies have been conducted to understand the relationship between different methods of measurement of photosynthetic pigments in oats.

Stability studies of cynaropicrin–major sesquiterpene lactone of Cynara cardunculus leaves

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study investigated its stability under high temperature and pH, mimicking agronomic extremes and under soil context. Bioassays demonstrated that degradation products exhibited higher phytotoxic activity than cynaropicrin and deacylcynaropicrin. This is the first study about cynaropicrin's stability, characterizing degradation products, and their ...

An information-theoretical measure of beta-diversity

open access: yes, 2003
A measure of beta-diversity based on the distribution of Kullback's information-theoretical divergence of single plots from the pooled sample is proposed for data on species relative abundances. Unlike other indices explicitly developed to summarise plot-

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Cover crops for managing weeds, soil chemical fertility and nutritional status of organically grown orange orchard in Sicily

open access: yesItalian Journal of Agronomy, 2015
Cover crops can offer significant advantages in the agronomic management of citrus orchards in Mediterranean environments. Therefore, a three-year research was conducted in eastern Sicily aimed at studying the effects of four cover crop sequences ...
