Wheat wild relatives are untapped genetic resources from salinity and drought hit areas. This study presents differential comparative morphophysiological responses of these species and modern wheat cultivars under saline conditions. Salt resistant species produce more shoot and root biomass under saline conditions through salt exclusion and/or tissue ...

Abstract Background Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) is a widely cultivated vegetable and aromatic‐medicinal plant. In this research, field studies assessed 12 fennel genotypes of diverse origin, comprising 10 Greek accessions and two European commercial varieties, focusing on their morpho‐agronomical traits, phenolic compounds and antioxidant ...

Canopy height estimation with TanDEM-X in temperate and boreal forests
Abstract Various semi-empirical models for linking PolInSAR data (polarimetric synthetic aperture radar interferometry) to canopy height of vegetation exist. However, only single-polarized data were used during the TanDEM-X mission in order to create a global digital elevation model (DEM).

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...

Effect of different light‐emitting diodes on vegetative cannabis growth and antioxidant activity
Abstract Background Cannabis stands as one of the world's oldest plant sources for food and textile fiber. The study aimed to assess the impact of white LED (blue; 446 nm + amber; 595 nm + red; 653 nm), wide PC amber (595 nm), narrow amber (595 nm) + royal blue (430 nm) (NA + RB), and narrow amber (595 nm) + royal blue (430 nm) + cyan blue (485 nm) (NA

Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (aw); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress ...

When compared to resident lizards of the corresponding age class, juvenile headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population exhibited more favorable responses to short‐term translocation objectives (i.e., daily movement rates, home range sizes, and survival rates) than did conspecifics headstarted to the adult age class ...

We evaluated habitat characteristics of spring migration routes and stopover sites for adult female elk (Cervus canadensis), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in the San Juan Mountains (2021–2022) and found species‐specific differences in vegetation structure, terrain, and proximity to land cover types relative to ...
