Urea Cocrystals as a Potential Fertilizer for Turfgrass: Responses of ‘Tifway’ Hybrid Bermudagrass and Nitrogen Release Behavior

HortTechnology
Urea cocrystal materials are a potential fertilizer source that has shown to decrease environmental nitrogen losses. Novel nitrogen (N)-containing urea cocrystal fertilizers, CaSO4·4urea (UC1) and Ca(H2PO4)2·4urea (UC2), were synthesized using the ...

Crop genotypic richness enhances biomass production and phosphorus acquisition in maize‐mycorrhiza symbiosis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

Plants, people and their shared heritage: A comparative medicinal and wild food ethnobotany of Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians living in the Gjirokaster area, southern Albania

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional knowledge about wild plants connects people to nature and sustains both cultural identity and biodiversity. This study explores how cultural exchange among Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians in southern Albania shapes the use and naming of medicinal and food plants.

Grass species and climatic season impact on Rhipicephalus microplus temporal abundance in a tropical region

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Ecosystem openness to nitrogen and phosphorus controlled by fertilisation, mowing and plant diversity in a grassland

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem openness to nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is determined by the balance of N and P inputs (e.g. fertiliser) and outputs (biomass removal). Plant biodiversity enhances nutrient use efficiency due to species' complementary uptake driven by their variation in ...

Prevalence of peripheral dental caries and diastemata in horses fed high‐carbohydrate diets

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Peripheral dental caries and diastemata impair equine oral health. Diets rich in soluble carbohydrates are suspected risk factors, but few studies have assessed their impact. In Brazil, sugarcane is widely used as a forage source due to its availability and low cost.
