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

Homoeologous chromosomal location of the genes encoding thionins in wheat and rye [PDF]
Thionins are high sulphur basic polypeptides present in the endosperm of Gramineae. In wheat there are three thionins encoded by genes located in the long arms of chromosomes 1A, 1B and 1D. Rye has one thionin encoded by a gene which has been assigned to

Whole-grain foods and chronic disease: evidence from epidemiological and intervention studies [PDF]
Cereal-based foods are key components of the diet and they dominate most food-based dietary recommendations in order to achieve targets for intake of carbohydrate, protein and dietary fibre.

Short‐run net returns to a cereal rye cover crop mix in a midwest corn–soybean rotation
Unsubstantiated economic returns are a major contributor to producers’ reluctance to adopt cover crops. The objective of this study is to evaluate the direct short-run net returns to the producer of implementing a predominantly cereal rye ( Secale cereal

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.

Current recommendations for the control of glyphosate-resistant horseweed [Conyza canadensis (L.) Cronquist var. canadensis] in soybeans [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] consist of comprehensive herbicide programs, which often include herbicide applications ...

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 ...

Modeling Hairy Vetch and Cereal Rye Cover Crop Decomposition and Nitrogen Release
Empirical models could help us to understand the process of plant residue decomposition and nutrient release into the soil. The objective of this study was to determine an appropriate model to describe the decomposition of hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth)
