Thicket Formation and Light Limitation Drive Patch-Scale Vegetation Transitions in a Subtropical Savanna. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Bush encroachment drives a shift from savanna dominated by Vachellia karroo to thicket vegetation. As canopies close, light availability declines, herbaceous cover and species richness decrease, and shade‐tolerant species replace open‐savanna taxa. Woody cover above ca.

Towards conservation and sustainable use of an indigenous crop: A large partnership network enabled the genetic diversity assessment of 1539 fonio (Digitaria exilis) accessions

Plants, People, Planet, 2023
The use of neglected and underutilized species (NUS) in agrosystems is a potential solution to the challenges arising from global change. These species could contribute to the equitable diversification of agricultural systems.

Effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on the accumulation of secondary metabolites in roots and reproductive organs of Solanum nigrum, Digitaria sanguinalis and Ipomoea purpurea

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, 2022
The application of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can induce the synthesis and accumulation of secondary metabolites in the tissues of host plants, thus impacting their allelopathic potential.

Genome sequence and genetic diversity analysis of an under-domesticated orphan crop, white fonio (Digitaria exilis)

GigaScience, 2021
Background Digitaria exilis, white fonio, is a minor but vital crop of West Africa that is valued for its resilience in hot, dry, and low-fertility environments and for the exceptional quality of its grain for human nutrition.
