Management of Nematodes with Cowpea Cover Crops

EDIS, 2022
Cover crops are grown between cash crop cycles, or intercropped with cash crops to cover the ground, such as in vegetable fields, orchards, groves, and agricultural sites.

Different cover crops have a limited impact on marketable yields and biogeochemical cycling but secondary effects on pollinators and plant-parasitic nematodes in Florida organic vegetable systems

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
Cover crops are typically grown during the summer in Florida’s organic vegetable systems, where they can affect nutrient cycling, soil health, and pests/pollinators.

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

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

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Integrating Cover Crops into Soybean Systems in the Southern Great Plains: Impacts on Yield and Yield Components

Agronomy
The implementation of cover crops in crop rotation is a suggested soil health practice. As cover crops are not harvested and sold, they do not directly provide monetary gain to producers.

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.)

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have
