Grazing under Irrigation Affects N₂O-Emissions Substantially in South Africa

Atmosphere, 2020
Fertilized agricultural soils serve as a primary source of anthropogenic N2O emissions. In South Africa, there is a paucity of data on N2O emissions from fertilized, irrigated dairy-pasture systems and emission factors (EF) associated with the amount of ...

Mid-term fertilisers and lime effect on grassland in the hilly-mountain region in Balkan

Plant, Soil and Environment
Although the effects of fertiliser addition and liming on semi-natural grassland productivity and biomass quality are well documented, less is known about how fertilisers change plant functional groups and mean ecological values.

Overexpression of genes encoding enzymes involved in trehalose synthesis from Caragana korshinskii enhances drought tolerance of transgenic plants

Biologia Plantarum, 2022
Trehalose, which plays important roles in resistance to abiotic stresses and preservation of biological activity in plants, is synthesized by two key enzymes, trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) and trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (TPP).

Crop Foraging, Crop Losses, and Crop Raiding [PDF]

Annual Review of Anthropology, 2018
Crop foraging or crop raiding concerns wildlife foraging and farmers’ reactions and responses to it. To understand crop foraging and its value to wildlife or its implications for humans requires a cross-disciplinary approach that considers the behavior and ecology of wild animals engaging in this behavior; the types and levels of competition for ...

Microbial Assemblages Associated with the Soil-Root Continuum of an Endangered Plant, Helianthemum songaricum Schrenk

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
The microbial network of the soil-root continuum plays a key role in plant growth. To date, limited information is available about the microbial assemblages in the rhizosphere and endosphere of endangered plants. We suspect that unknown microorganisms in

Microbial assemblages associated with the rhizosphere and endosphere of an herbage, Leymus chinensis

Microbial Biotechnology, 2020
Summary Root‐associated microbiomes play significant roles in plant productivity, health and ecological services. However, our current understanding of the microbial assemblages in the rhizosphere and endosphere of herbage is still limited.

High Basal Expression and Dual Stress Responsiveness of Soybean (Glycine max) Resistance Gene SRC4

Plants
Genes involved in disease resistance are crucial for plant immune systems, yet their transcriptional regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. SRC4, a key member of the soybean mosaic virus resistance cluster (SRC), encodes a Ca2+-binding EF-hand ...
