ABSTRACT Global warming increases night temperatures more strongly than day temperatures. Recent evidence indicates that the effect of night temperature on plant physiology is independent of daytime conditions, suggesting distinct stress tolerance mechanisms.

Signatures of local nitrogen adaptation in the Brachypodium distachyon root microbiome
Summary Plants associate with diverse microbiomes that impact their fitness, yet the contribution of the microbiome to plant adaptation is uncertain. As plant recruitment of its microbiome can be both highly variable and genetically determined, we hypothesized this recruitment process may be the result of adaptive evolution, and contributing to plant ...

Grasses’ nutritional characteristics and management are fundamental for grazing cattle to guarantee sustainability in tropical conditions. This study aims to analyze the pastures’ chemical composition variability and methane emissions in different Colombian ecoregions and productive activities using digital bromatology data.

Spatial context allows the evolution of the control of nitrification by plants
Using a theoretical approach, we show that assuming that the effects of the control of nitrification are spatially restricted to the rhizosphere, the control of nitrification is likely to be selected in perennial plants and ecosystems in which nitrate losses are greater than ammonium losses. The selected strategy optimizes biomass production.

Harnessing Bacterial Potential to Reduce Nitrous Oxide Emissions From Agricultural Soils
ABSTRACT Reducing N₂O emissions from farmlands is crucial to mitigate climate change. A recent scientific breakthrough employed an innovative method to inoculate farmland soil with a bacterium, resulting in a significant reduction of N₂O emissions. This commentary identifies promising environments and practices for further emission reduction.

ABSTRACT Plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.) has recently been thrust into the limelight as a potential tool for mitigating nitrogen losses from the New Zealand pastoral environment. It is claimed to possess characteristics to reduce nitrogen leaching through both animal and soil‐based mechanisms.

ABSTRACT In their review: An examination of the ability of plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.) to mitigate nitrogen leaching from pasture systems, Eady et al. (2024) dispute both the historic estimates of typical urine patch nitrogen (N) load and leaching and the evidence for the N leaching reduction mechanisms of plantain; and question the recommended ...

A summary of ISP mechanisms in inducing cardiac fibrosis. Abstract Cardiac injury initiates repair mechanisms and results in cardiac remodeling and fibrosis, which appears to be a leading cause of cardiovascular diseases. Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, mainly collagen in the cardiac interstitium.

Recent studies have suggested that diversified cropping systems integrating crop and livestock operations can enhance food production while reducing inputs and environmental impact. Nevertheless, the effect of integrated or mixed crop–livestock systems (MCLSs) on soil greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission, specifically nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4 ...
