Identification of differentially senescing mutants of wheat and impacts on yield, biomass and nitrogen partitioning [PDF]

, 2012
Increasing photosynthetic capacity by extending canopy longevity during grain filling using slow senescing stay-green genotypes is a possible means to improve yield in wheat. Ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutated wheat lines (Triticum aestivum L.

Coexistence via resource partitioning fails to generate an increase in community function. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Classic ecological theory suggests that resource partitioning facilitates the coexistence of species by reducing inter-specific competition. A byproduct of this process is an increase in overall community function, because a greater spectrum of resources

Impact of elevated CO2 on high temperature induced effects in grain yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2016
High temperature and increasing atmospheric CO2 are debatable issues under climate variability and of major concern for agricultural productivity. Field experiments were conducted with two chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes, viz.

Biomass and protein in ruzigrass intercropped with maize subjected to plant densities and nitrogen fertilization

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2023
The objective of this work was to evaluate the impacts of nitrogen topdressing fertilization and plant density of second-crop maize on the biomass and crude protein production of ruzigrass (Urochloa ruziziensis) grown in intercropping. The experiment was

Benthic biomass size spectra in shelf and deep-sea sediments [PDF]

, 2014
The biomass distributions of marine benthic metazoans (meio- to macro-fauna, 1 µg–32 mg wet weight) across three contrasting sites were investigated to test the hypothesis that allometry can consistently explain observed trends in biomass spectra ...

Simulating Organ Growth in Wheat Based on the Organ–Weight Fraction Concept

Plant Production Science, 2002
Quantifying dry matter partitioning into individual organs of plants is a key component for simulating crop growth and yield formation. This study was undertaken to develop a dynamic module of biomass partitioning over the entire duration of growth in ...

Adaptive Partitioning for Large-Scale Dynamic Graphs [PDF]

, 2013
—In the last years, large-scale graph processing has gained increasing attention, with most recent systems placing particular emphasis on latency. One possible technique to improve runtime performance in a distributed graph processing system is to reduce
