Grazing of cover crops in integrated crop-livestock systems
Animal, 2021 Conventional agriculture is specializing rapidly into the management of few monoculture crops, threatening crop diversity and questioning the sustainability of extensive cropping systems. The grazing of cover crops in integrated crop-livestock systems could be a feasible biologically based technology to restore crop diversity and mitigate ecological ...

Phylogenetic relatedness can influence cover crop-based weed suppression
Scientific Reports, 2023 Cover crops are plants grown to provide regulating, supporting, and cultural ecosystem services in managed environments. In agricultural systems, weed suppression services from cover crops can be an important tool to promote sustainability as reliance on

Cover crops support ecological intensification of arable cropping systems [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractA major challenge for agriculture is to enhance productivity with minimum impact on the environment. Several studies indicate that cover crops could replace anthropogenic inputs and enhance crop productivity. However, so far, it is unclear if cover crop effects vary between different cropping systems, and direct comparisons among major arable ...

Soil chemical properties affected by cover crops under no-tillage system
Revista Ceres, 2015 The use of cover crops in no-tillage systems (NTS) can significantly improve the soil's fertility. Thus, a study was performed to evaluate changes in chemical properties of soil caused by cover crops in a no-tillage system. The field experiment consisted

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Effect of cover crops on maize-velvet leaf competition: leaf area density and light interception
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2016 Cover crops influence on canopy structure and light interception of maize (Zea mays L.) and velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti Medik), was studied in a field experiment. Treatments included planting of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), soybean (Glycine max (L.)
