Enhancing crop growth in rooftop farms by repurposing CO2 from human respiration inside buildings
Integrating cities with the surrounding environment by incorporating green spaces in creative ways would help counter climate change. We propose a rooftop farm system called BIG GRO where air enriched with carbon dioxide (CO2) produced through ...

Lignocellulosic Crops in Rotation with Food Crops
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 ...

Crop modelling in agricultural crops
With limited land resources and a growing population, agricultural output is under considerable strain. New technology is necessary for overcoming these issues and advising farmers, legislators and other decision-makers on adopting sustainable agriculture despite global climate variations. This has led to the crop simulation models that illustrate crop

Plant cell wall and the mechanisms of resistance to pathogens
A huge variety of phytopathogens (viruses, bacteria, fungi) are potentially able to infect plant tissues and cause diseases. Numerous plant genes control a complex network of defense mechanisms based on both constitutive and inducible processes. The cell

Boron content in soils under increasing magnesium and sulphur doses in a field experiment
The three-year field experiment (2015-2017) with graded doses of magnesium (Mg) and sulphur (S) was carried out at the Humpolec experimental station (49.5546239N, 15.3485489E; Czech Republic). The interactions between boron (B), Mg and S in the soil were
