Summary When Rome colonized Britain, it created a transport network spanning the province. This transformed the Iron Age economy, creating large new markets which in turn supported specialized manufacturing. This article explores the impact of transportation on Roman agriculture – the core of the Romano‐British economy.

Identifying winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) lines with group 1 herbicide tolerance
Abstract The management of herbicide‐tolerant weeds is a challenge for many winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) producers. Implementing grass herbicide‐tolerant wheat cultivars, such as those under the CoAXium production system, may be an important tool.

Is co‐existence and/or containment of genetically modified plants possible, and is it important?
ABSTRACT Co‐existence and containment of genetically modified (GM) plants has been a contentious issue since GM technologies were first commercially released in the mid‐1990s. In the first decade of commercial GM plant use, there were a significant number of contamination incidents resulting from GM presence in non‐GM crops and seed, some with a ...

Understanding the virus‐host arms race has been a fascinating topic in virology; contributing significantly to the development of treatments and control strategies for viral diseases. CHV1 employs a sophisticated counter‐defense mechanism in its fungal host by utilizing a viral silencing suppressor to inhibit fungal FMN reductase; thereby modulating ...

Responses of Native Plants and Downy Brome to a Water-Conserving Soil Amendment
Restoring native plants in rangelands threatened by downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) presents a serious challenge to land managers. Higher, more consistent soil moisture, as well as slightly compacted soils, may reduce the competitive abilities of downy brome.

Fire promotes downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) seed dispersal [PDF]
Particularly well-known among the many impacts of the invasive annual grass downy brome (Bromus tectorum, Poaceae) is its ability to alter fire cycles and increase in abundance after fire. However, little is known about how fire influences B. tectorum dispersal. We quantified fire effects on B.

Tillage practices do not affect winter wheat grain yield trend
Abstract Tillage is an integral part of the crop production system and is one of the crucial management decisions producers make to enhance soil health and crop productivity. However, its contribution to winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield over time requires further investigation in dryland cropping systems.

Registration of ‘Sockeye CL+’ soft white winter wheat
Abstract Soft white winter (SWW) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the main market class produced in Washington State. With consistent production of winter wheat, winter annual weeds have been a constant concern of producers. For over 20 years, growers have used the Clearfield Production System to control grassy weeds in commercial production.

Registration of ‘Piranha CL+’ soft white winter wheat
Abstract Soft white winter (SWW) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is commonly grown in Washington. In many production areas of the state, winter annual weeds have become prevalent in the fields. With only a few herbicide choices available, growers have used the Clearfield Production System technology as a tool to control grassy weeds.

Abstract Cover cropping in the fallow phase of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–fallow systems of the semiarid Pacific Northwest has been identified as an opportunity to build resilience and enhance farm profitability. Nine fall‐ and spring‐sown cover crops (CCs) grown during the traditional fallow period were evaluated at sites in the low and ...
