Potential effect of key soil bacterial taxa on the increase of rice yield under milk vetch rotation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Legume crop rotation is often adopted in rice cultivation to improve soil productivity. However, little is known about the role of microbes under legume rotation in affecting soil productivity. To elucidate this, a long-term paddy cropping experiment was

Lignocellulosic Crops in Rotation with Food Crops

, 2020
Enhancing agricultural multifunctionality is viable in a multi-purpose crops intensification scenario. The cultivation of a sequence of food and energy crop has the potential to strengthen the crop rotation effect without reducing food land. Annual lignocellulosic crops for advanced biofuel could be introduced alongside conventional crops during the ...

Agricultural Drone-Based Variable-Rate N Application for Regulating Wheat Protein Content

Drones
Implementing a variable-rate application (VRA) of fertilization based on real-time crop growth status reduces costs and enhances work efficiency. However, the technical challenges associated with obtaining accurate growth-distribution maps and applying ...

Plasticity in Caste-Fate Determination During the Adult Stage in Temperate Polistes Wasps

Insects
The reproductive division of labor is a fundamental characteristic of eusociality; thus, understanding the caste determination system underlying the reproductive division of labor would shed more light on the evolution of eusociality.

Crop production during the first course of an organic crop rotation trial in Denmark [PDF]

, 2000
Three factors are included in a factorial field experiment: 1) fraction of grass-clover and pulses in the rotation (crop rotation), 2) catch crop (with or without catch crop), and 3) manure (with or without animal manure). Manure is applied as slurry in

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

An organic vegetable crop rotation aimed at self-sufficiency in nitrogen [PDF]

, 1999
The paper describes the organic vegetable crop rotation. The ideas behind the design of the crop rotation, the use of green manures and catch crops, and how information on crop root growth has been used to try to design a crop rotation with a high NUE ...

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.
