Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.

Rainfall forecasts, learning subsidies and conservation agriculture adoption: Experimental evidence from Zambia

open access: yesClimate Services
Adapting smallholder rainfed farming systems to climate change requires adoption of technologies that build resilience to climate shocks. One such technology is conservation agriculture, yet its adoption by smallholders in Southern Africa is not ...

42. Conservation agriculture

open access: yes, 2021
Description of the practice:Conservation Agriculture (CA) regroups a vast diversity of agroecological cropping systems characterized by the simultaneous and continuous application of 3 practical principles:i. No-Tillage, i.e. minimum mechanical soil disturbance with direct seeding, no-till weeding andminimum soil disturbance with other operations ...

Conservation Agriculture Way of Agricultural Sustainability

open access: yes, 2023
Conservation agriculture (CA) is a sustainable farming approach that emphasizes minimal soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and diverse crop rotations. This holistic system aims to preserve and enhance soil health, water retention, and biodiversity while increasing agricultural productivity and profitability.

Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Cis‐ and Trans‐Regulatory Factors Independently Shape Phenotypic Heterogeneity of Retinitis Pigmentosa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A zebrafish model carrying an identical human RHO S334X allele reveals two independent genetic layers shaping retinitis pigmentosa (RP) severity: a protective 3‐bp cis‐regulatory insertion that attenuates transgene expression, and a dominant trans‐acting modifier that restores a severe phenotype.

Working Lands Agri-environmental Policy Options and Issues for the Next United States Farm Bill [PDF]

open access: yes
U.S. farm legislation is due to be updated in 2007, to become effective with the 2008 crop year. Major questions surround the role of environmental or conservation provisions in the new Federal farm bill. In this paper, I first present some background on
