Perennial Plant Response to Defoliation - An Overview

, 2004
Compares the growth of defoliated and nondefoliated perennial plants, with an emphasis on the link between plant structure, growth, and response to defoliation. Overview This lesson will compare the growth of defoliated and nondefoliated perennial plants.

Revealing the Key Genetic Basis of Late Leaf Spot Resistance in Peanut by Combining QTL Mapping, QTL‐seq and RNA‐seq

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 10442-10455, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Late leaf spot (LLS) is the most widespread and destructive fungal disease affecting peanut worldwide, yet relatively little is known about its genetic basis. In this study, QTL mapping using a 1327‐bin map (derived from 9533 SNP/InDel markers) and multi‐environment phenotypic data repeatedly detected two major LLS‐resistance QTLs on ...

Reducing Costs and Optimizing the Timing of Agronomic Inputs for Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in North Carolina.

, 2009
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) grown in North Carolina requires intensive management for achieving optimal yields in an early-season environment. Recent increases in production costs require cotton producers to adopt practices that allow yield potential

Peanut yield and quality not improved by methods to constrain indeterminacy

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Maximizing vegetative growth and biomass accumulation may not optimize source–sink resource allocation for reproductive processes in peanut (Arachis hypogea L.), resulting in low yield, nutrient inefficiencies, and reduced kernel quality. The objective was to investigate the effects of mechanical pruning and herbicidal application on Runner ...

Impacts of soybean breeding on shoot architecture

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Despite decades of steady soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) yield increases from improved cultivars, the accompanying changes in shoot architectural traits have been under‐researched. To address this, we analyzed 55 cultivars spanning eight decades of breeding and estimated a genetic gain for yield of 20.7 kg ha−1 year−1 in south‐central ...

Recovery of southern mountain caribou habitat following wildfire in Ulkatcho territory, British Columbia, Canada

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 8, November 2026.
Caribou forage lichens were present in post‐burn lodgepole pine stands multiple decades before stem‐density was likely open enough to attract wintering caribou. We posit that the prolonged self‐thinning of lodgepole pine after fire may be a greater limiting factor than lichen abundance for habitat recovery in lodgepole pine forests.

Combined effects of canola plant density and insecticide management strategies on flea beetle abundance, canola defoliation, and yield across the Canadian prairies

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10648-10657, November 2026.
Increasing canola plant density reduced flea beetle abundance per plant and increased yield, independent of region or insecticide use, highlighting its potential as a component of integrated pest management. Abstract The crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze), and the striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera ...

Terrestrial arthropod community responses to livestock grazing

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 11, November 2026.
Our review has highlighted that non‐significant or neutral responses of arthropods to grazing are common in the published literature, and that taxonomic and functional approaches may reveal different directional responses. To improve understanding of effects on a broader range of arthropods and community‐level processes, we recommend more researchers ...

Beyond the safety thresholds: Contrasting drought responses in Mediterranean seeders and resprouters revealed by hydraulic and leaf turgor safety margins

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 11, November 2026.
We evaluated drought‐induced damage, resistance and recovery in several Mediterranean woody species spanning contrasting regeneration strategies. By integrating hydraulic and leaf turgor safety margins, foliar damages, mortality and non‐structural carbohydrates, we identified three drought‐induced functional phases.
