Cover crops and landscape positions mediate corn–soybean production
Ecosystem services and cash crop benefits provided by cover crops (CCs) can be affected by temporal and spatial variability of CC performances as influenced by topographic position of the field. A watershed‐scale study was initiated in 2015 to assess the

The Roots of Rye (Secale cereale L.) Are Capable of Synthesizing Benzoxazinoids [PDF]
According to current opinion, the first step of benzoxazinoids (BXs) synthesis, that is, the conversion of indole-3-glycerol phosphate to indole, occurs exclusively in the photosynthesising parts of plants. However, the results of our previous work and some other studies suggest that this process may also occur in the roots.

Systemic Colonization by Metarhizium robertsii Enhances Cover Crop Growth
Fungi in the genus Metarhizium (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) are insect pathogens that can establish as endophytes and can benefit their host plant. In field experiments, we observed a positive correlation between the prevalence of M.

Cereal rye to extend the grazing season
Eleven cereal rye (&cafe cereale) cultivars, one triticale (Triticum secale) and one winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivar were evaluated in 2 studies for their ability to extend the grazing season into the autumn and winter in southern Ohio. The cultivars, 5 in 1993 and 9 in 1994, were randomly assigned to replicated plots and planted in late ...

The combination of soil residual herbicides and cover crops is an integral part of best management practices for herbicide-resistant weeds. However, the interception of soil residual herbicides by cover crop biomass interferes with herbicides reaching ...

Trends in Ocean S‐Isotopes May Be Influenced by Major LIP Events
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Cover crops and fall residual herbicides for managing Italian ryegrass
North Carolina growers have long struggled to control Italian ryegrass, and recent research has confirmed that some Italian ryegrass biotypes have become resistant to nicosulfuron, glyphosate, clethodim, and paraquat.

No yield benefit from starter fertilizer in soybean no‐till planted into rolled‐crimped cereal rye
No‐till planting organic soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] into rolled‐crimped cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) can improve soil health while decreasing labor and fuel costs, but yield declines from tillage‐based production hinder wider adoption.
