Evaluating the Adapt‐N model for dynamic nitrogen recommendation in Brazilian maize (Zea mays L.) systems

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Several nitrogen rate recommendation methods have been developed to help farmers fertilize close to the economic optimum N rate (EONR). The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate a dynamic method (Adapt‐N) for N rate recommendations for maize (Zea mays L.) in Brazil relative to EONRs determined specifically for each trial and (ii ...

Meiotic behavior of Brachiaria decumbens hybrids

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015
Brachiaria decumbens is a forage grass of inestimable value for livestock in Brazil due to its production of good quality forage even when planted on acid and poor soils, although it is susceptible to pasture spittlebugs. Only one cultivar, cv. Basilisk, has been used as the pollen donor in crosses with Brachiaria ruziziensis since 1988 at Embrapa Gado

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...

Genotype‐By‐Environment Interaction for Scrotal Circumference in Young Nellore Bulls Under Pasture and Feedlot Conditions and Its Correlation With Days to Calving

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Scrotal circumference (SC) is a key reproductive indicator in beef cattle and an important predictor of male puberty and correlated female fertility. In this study, we evaluated young Nellore bulls raised under combinations of pasture and feedlot environments and modeled SC using a “double” reaction norm model. Additive genetic variance for SC
