Intercropping with garlic alleviated continuous cropping obstacle of cucumber in plastic tunnel

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B — Soil & Plant Science, 2012
Abstract Continuous cropping obstacle is prevalent for protected cultivated cucumber in China. Intercropping garlic may effectively relieve this obstacle due to its allelopathic and antimicrobial effects. A two-growing season investigation was carried out during autumn 2009 to spring 2010 in plastic tunnel to determine the effects of intercropped ...

What Explains Racial Differences in Farm Succession Planning? Evidence From Decomposition and Counterfactual Analysis

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines racial differences in farm succession planning using survey data from Tennessee farmers. While observed differences between White and Black farmers are small, decomposition and counterfactual analyses show that structural characteristics, particularly farm size, would predict higher succession planning among White farmers ...

Long-term watermelon continuous cropping leads to drastic shifts in soil bacterial and fungal community composition across gravel mulch fields

BMC Microbiology, 2022
Despite the known influence of continuous cropping on soil microorganisms, little is known about the associated difference in the effects of continuous cropping on the community compositions of soil bacteria and fungi.

3D Closed‐Loop Navigation of Magnetic Microswimmers Using Vision‐Derived Depth Feedback

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A planar magnetic microswimmer is navigated in three dimensions under a standard microscope. Image defocus supplies a real‐time depth cue, and model‐predictive control with A* planning steers the body on surfaces and in free swimming. Axial position is regulated by propulsion alone, without magnetic field gradients or extra cameras.

Six‐DoF Strawberry Harvesting Pose Selection and Adaptive Obstacle Clearing in Occluded Environments

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An occlusion‐aware 6‐DoF harvesting strategy integrates γ‐angle pose selection, ripeness‐weighted risk evaluation, and adaptive obstacle clearing. The approach enables collision‐free grasping orientation selection and improves strawberry harvesting reliability under complex occlusion, achieving higher success rates and reduced fruit damage. In complex,

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

New Insights into the Formation Mechanism of Continuous Cropping Obstacles in Dioscorea opposita Thunb. cv. Tiegun Yam from Rhizosphere Metabolites and Microflora

Agronomy
Continuous cropping (CC) poses serious challenges to the sustainable production of Dioscorea opposita Thunb. cv. Tiegun yam. The aim of this study is to illustrate the formation mechanisms of CC obstacles by analyzing rhizosphere soil from yam fields ...

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...

Rotation Alleviated the Continuous Cropping Obstacle of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Cultivation and Optimized the Endophytic Bacterial Communities in Peanut Pods

Plants
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) continuous cropping reduces yield and quality, but the effects of specific rotation methods on yield and endophytic bacterial colonization remain unclear. Based on five years of continuous cropping trial data, three different
