Impact of cover crop mixture and cereal rye on soybean critical period for weed control in a low-yield environment

Weed Technology
Growers have increasingly adopted the planting of cover crops as a sustainable way to control problematic and herbicide-resistant weeds. Understanding the critical period of crop-weed competition is essential for timely and effective weed management ...

Pesticide Supply Chains From China to Australia: Examining Paraquat Amid the Global Pesticide Complex

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

The Architecture of Consolidation: Nests of Corporate Control in the Agrochemical Network

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on agricultural consolidation tends to equate corporate control with the dominance of a few large firms. We take an alternative approach that examines control through the explosive growth of legally distinct firms that fragment accountability. Using a new global dataset of 6982 entities linked to BASF, Bayer, Corteva, Dow, DuPont, FMC,

Associations Between Benzoxazinoids, Plant Development and Nutritional Parameters in Different Maize Maturing Genotypes

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) silage is a major energy source in ruminant diets and provides fermentable substrate for the rumen microbiota. In addition, forage maize contains benzoxazinoids (BXs), defence‐related secondary metabolites with antimicrobial activity that remain detectable after ensiling.

The combination of morphogenic regulators BABY BOOM and GRF‐GIF improves maize transformation efficiency and promotes leaf regeneration

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maize regeneration via somatic embryogenesis by ectopic expression of morphogenic factors TaGRF4‐TaGIF1 and ZmBBM. Summary Transformation is an indispensable tool for plant genetics and functional genomics. Although stable transformation in maize is no longer a major obstacle, there remains a need for accessible and efficient methods for academic ...

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.

Cereal rye biomass effects on giant ragweed suppression inform management decisions

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Giant ragweed (Ambrosia trifida L.) has become one of the most troublesome weeds across the US Midwest partially due to its early emergence, high competitiveness, and herbicide resistance evolution. This study aimed to determine the amount of cereal rye (
