Climate change-related deacclimation disrupts sugar allocation and transport in winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Experimental Botany
Winter oilseed rape achieves frost tolerance through cold acclimation (CA). CA is a process usually naturally occurring in autumn and triggered by low but non-freezing temperatures. Among various metabolic adjustments, changes in sugar management are one

Breeding for cold tolerance in common annual legume cover crops

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract There has been a significant increase in cover crop adoption, with land use nearly doubling over the last decade. Winter legume cover crops provide several ecosystem services, such as weed suppression and reducing soil erosion, while serving as an excellent nitrogen source for subsequent cash crops.

High sensitivity of herbaceous legumes to freezing: Insights from a multiyear snow removal study

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Reductions in snow cover resulting from winter climate change are anticipated to increase the intensity of freezing exposure for overwintering herbaceous plants in many northern temperate regions. We examined whether herbaceous legumes, a key functional group responsible for increasing soil nitrogen inputs, are more sensitive to freezing than ...

Historic rewiring of grass flowering time pathways and implications for crop improvement under climate change

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 5, Page 1864-1878, March 2025.
Summary Grasses are fundamental to human survival, providing a large percentage of our calories, fuel, and fodder for livestock, and an enormous global carbon sink. A particularly important part of the grass plant is the grain‐producing inflorescence that develops in response to both internal and external signals that converge at the shoot tip to ...

Physiology of Cold Acclimation and Deacclimation Responses of Cool-season Grasses: Carbon and Hormone Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Winter injury of cool-season turfgrasses in northern climates is a significant issue, leading to losses in turf cover and subsequent increased inputs for recovery.

Genetic and environmental drivers of legume cover crop performance: Hairy vetch

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 64, Issue 6, Page 3052-3072, November/December 2024.
Abstract Among 50 environments in the United States, we screened 35 hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth.) lines for traits of interest to cover cropping. We analyzed the influence of genotype, environment, and the genotype‐by‐environment interaction (G × E) on biomass, vigor, winter survival, emergence, flowering time, and nitrogen fixation. To explore how

Generation and analysis of blueberry transcriptome sequences from leaves, developing fruit, and flower buds from cold acclimation through deacclimation

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2012
Background There has been increased consumption of blueberries in recent years fueled in part because of their many recognized health benefits. Blueberry fruit is very high in anthocyanins, which have been linked to improved night vision, prevention of ...

The Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature version 2.1 (MEGAN2.1): an extended and updated framework for modeling biogenic emissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature version 2.1 (MEGAN2.1) is a modeling framework for estimating fluxes of biogenic compounds between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere using simple mechanistic algorithms to account for the ...

Potential processes leading to winter reddening of young Douglas-fir Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb. Franco. in Europe

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science
Key message Winter reddening of young Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb. Franco), triggered by large thermal fluctuations in late winter, is a critical problem for European forestry.
