Lessons from integrated seasonal forecast-crop modelling in Africa: A systematic review

Open Life Sciences, 2022
Seasonal forecasts coupled with crop models can potentially enhance decision-making in smallholder farming in Africa. The study sought to inform future research through identifying and critiquing crop and climate models, and techniques for integrating ...

Predicting spatial and temporal variability in crop yields: an inter-comparison of machine learning, regression and process-based models

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Pervious assessments of crop yield response to climate change are mainly aided with either process-based models or statistical models, with a focus on predicting the changes in average yields, whilst there is growing interest in yield variability and ...

Orphan Crops Browser: a bridge between model and orphan crops [PDF]

Molecular Breeding, 2016
Many important crops have received little attention by the scientific community, either because they are not considered economically important or due to their large and complex genomes. De novo transcriptome assembly, using next-generation sequencing data, is an attractive option for the study of these orphan crops.

Simulation de la réponse variétale du tournesol à l’environnement à l’aide du modèle SUNFLO

Oléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2010
Variety assessment could be supported by the use of dynamic crop modelling. The SUNFLO model was developed to simulate the achene yield and oil concentration of sunflower crop with a special attention paid to the description of varietal diversity.

Tracking nitrogen losses in a greenhouse crop rotation experiment in North China using the EU-Rotate_N simulation model [PDF]

, 2010
Vegetable production in China is associated with high inputs of nitrogen, posing a risk of losses to the environment. Organic matter mineralisation is a considerable source of nitrogen (N) which is hard to quantify.

Crop science experiments designed to inform crop modeling [PDF]

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2013
Crop growth simulation models are a useful tool to assess the impact of environment, crop management, genetics and breeding strategies, as well as climate change and variability on growth and yield. Any crop science experiment that measures key physiological processes, tests these productive processes, their interaction with other processes ...

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.
