Canola Fiber as Reinforcement for Composites: Effect of Fiber Extraction and Processing Method on Fiber Properties, Nonwoven Manufacturing, and Composite Properties

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Comparison of canola fiber reinforced composites manufactured using water‐retted, field‐retted, and enzyme‐treated fibers. ABSTRACT Canola fibers obtained from discarded stalks through various processing methods, including water‐retting and field‐retting followed by mechanical decortication and enzymatic degradation, were utilized as discontinuous ...

Use of rooted leaves for screening of Brassica germplasm response to clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) and downy mildew (Hyaloperonospora parasitica)

open access: yesHorticultural Science, 2005
Rooted leaves and cotyledons of various cruciferous crops were used for the screening of Brassica germplasm response to two obligatory pathogens: clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) and downy mildew (Hyalope-ronospora parasitica).

Impact of shortened crop rotation of oilseed rape on soil and rhizosphere microbial diversity in relation to yield decline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Oilseed rape (OSR) grown in monoculture shows a decline in yield relative to virgin OSR of up to 25%, but the mechanisms responsible are unknown. A long term field experiment of OSR grown in a range of rotations with wheat was used to determine whether ...

Comprehensive DIA‐MS Proteomics of Root Basal Nodes Elucidates Mechanisms of Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity severely affects rice growth, yield, and quality, posing a global food security challenge. Rice is particularly vulnerable to high salinity, which restricts growth and tolerance to other stresses. To address this, breeding efforts have been made in the past, leading to the generation of multi‐stress‐tolerant rice lines.

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of glucosinolates in cruciferous plants during their life cycles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Glucosinolates produced by Brassica species were investigated in relation to biofumigation, a term used to describe the effects some allelochemicals, including glucosinolate derived products, may have on soil-borne pathogens or other herbivores.

A comprehensive checklist of Mediterranean wild edible plants: Diversity, traditional uses, and knowledge gaps

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The use of wild edible plants and the traditional knowledge associated with them are rapidly disappearing across the Mediterranean, with serious consequences for biodiversity, cultural heritage, and regional food security. This study compiles and organizes fragmented information to create the first comprehensive catalogue of these plants across the ...
