Individuality obscures geographical song variation in two passerine sister species with contrasting distributions and movement ecology

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 95-116, January 2026.
Songbirds are a well‐established model group for the study of cultural evolution as their songs are learned (i.e. culturally transmitted), which may lead to divergence in song characteristics between populations. Song variation across populations may be affected by geographical isolation, timing and duration of the learning period, and life strategies ...

Plant Development and Leaf Area Production in Contrasting Cultivars of Maize Grown in a Cool Temperate Environment in the Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Crop models need accurate simulation of the interdependent processes of crop development and leaf area production. Crop development proceeds according to genotype characteristics and environmental influences, specifically temperature and photoperiod.

Performance assessment and application of the DSSAT-CERES-Maize model for simulating maize yield under water stress conditions

open access: yes, 2017
Summer maize is a major crop in the Northern Huaihe Plain, where is one of the most important grain producing areas in Anhui Province, while the maize yield has been seriously affected by drought stress for a long period of time.

Diploid origins and early genome stabilization in the allotetraploid Arabidopsis suecica

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 524-538, January 2026.
Summary Polyploidization, followed by genome downsizing, is a recurrent evolutionary cycle that dramatically reshapes genome structure. Newly formed polyploids must quickly adjust their cell division machinery to maintain stable chromosome inheritance, while long‐term stabilization involves rediploidization, returning the genome to a diploid‐like state.

FINANCIAL AND RISK ANALYSIS OF MAIZE TECHNOLOGY IN ETHIOPIA, BASED ON CERES-MAIZE MODEL RESULTS [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper presents a financial and risk analysis of improved versus traditional maize production technology in Ethiopia, based on yields simulated with the CERES-Maize crop growth model (Schulthess and Ward, 2000).

Improving Crop Models: Incorporating New Processes, New Approaches, and Better Calibrations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Early ancestors of crop simulation models (De Wit, 1965; Monteith, 1965; Duncan et al., 1967) were born before primitive personal computers were available (e.g. Apple II released in 1977, IBM PC released in 1981).

Calibration Validation and Evaluation of CERES Maize Model under Temperate Conditions of Kashmir, Using DSSAT 4.7

open access: yesCurrent Journal of Applied Science and Technology, 2020
Field experiments were conducted at Shalimar Campus of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir during 2015 and 2016 to study the growth and yield of maize at different planting dates and Nitrogen levels with further ...

Drought and Extreme Heat Reduce Wheat and Maize Production in the United States by Lowering Both Crop Yields and Harvestable Fraction

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Ensuring food security is crucial in the context of climate change and increased extreme weather events. Crop production depends not only on yield but also on the harvestable fraction (HF), the ratio of harvested areas to planted areas. While the impacts of climate fluctuations on crop yields are well‐document, the role of HF‐a critical yet ...

Data Assimilation of Near-Surface In-Situ Soil Moisture Using the DSSAT Crop Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Soil water is an important variable in agricultural environments as it contributes to yield response as well as areas of environmental concern including erosion, runoff, and nitrogen leaching (through deep drainage).
