Straw biomass - potential raw material for ethanol production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Barley straw was found to be suitable raw material for ethanol production. Straw could be easily pre-treated with steam explosion, hydrolysed to monosaccharides and fermented to ethanol.

Assessment of Constraints, Opportunities and Income Impacts Associated with Small‐Scale Irrigation in Zebit, Ethiopia

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small‐scale irrigation represents a highly effective system designed to enhance production and productivity, mitigate risks associated with rainfall variability and increase the income of rural farm households. This study was conducted to analyse small‐scale irrigation impact on household income and assess the challenges and opportunities in ...

Efficacy of Haloxyfop‐R‐Methyl on Allium cepa: Cyto‐Genotoxic and In Silico Docking Studies on the Mechanism of Action

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haloxyfop‐R‐methyl (HRM) is extensively employed to control annual and perennial grass weeds. This study aimed to investigate the cyto‐genotoxic effects of HRM at concentrations of 1.19, 2.38, and 4.76 mg/L over various time intervals (24, 48, 72, and 96 h) on Allium cepa root.

Dormancy in Barley [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1956
WHEN applied to germination, ‘dormancy’ and ‘maturity’ are not precise terms, and their meaning therefore depends on the particular test which is used. The data in my communication1 relate to tests in which the conditions were optimal, in all respects, for the germination of barley grains.

High damage potential of seed-borne spot blotch in organically grown spring barley in Denmark [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Spot blotch of barley (Bipolaris sorokiniana, perfect state: Cochliobolus sativus) occurs wherever barley is grown but is normally not considered a major problem in Danish barley production.

Phosphorus lability across diverse agricultural contexts with legacy sources

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The buffering of phosphorus (P) in the landscape delays management outcomes for water quality. If stored in labile form (readily exchangeable and bioavailable), P may readily pollute waters. We studied labile P and its intensity for >600 soils and sediments across seven study locations in the United States. Stocks of labile P were large enough

Fall‐applied manure can conserve excess soil‐profile inorganic‐N for the subsequent cropping year

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract To investigate dairy manure urea fertilizer interactions in cropped soils of the semiarid‐West, we fall‐applied and incorporated (0–0.3 m) soil urea‐N (FertN) rates of 10 (N0), 45 (N1), and 80 mg N kg−1 (N2), co‐applied with either no manure or 86 Mg ha−1 (dry wt.) stockpiled dairy manure.

Barley and Oat Trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In 2009, the University of Vermont Extension established malting barley and oat variety trials at the Borderview Research Farm in Alburgh. Several local breweries and distilleries approached us about growing malting barley in the region.

Rhizodeposit Carbon Gradients: Potentials and Limitations of Destructive Rhizosphere Sampling on a Millimeter‐Scale

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite the availability of modern techniques for high‐resolution non‐destructive rhizosphere analysis, destructive examinations yielding a certain minimum soil amount are often required to provide detailed insights into organic matter composition.

Molecular diagnostic methods can prevent unnecessary rejection of organic seed lots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In some years, large amounts of organic seed lots are discarded due to the presence of high levels of seed-borne diseases. In barley it is especially the presence of the fungal species Pyrenophora teres (barley net blotch) and P.
