Net Returns for Grain Sorghum and Corn under Alternative Irrigation Systems in Western Kansas

This study evaluates seven irrigation systems for use in production of grain sorghum and corn. These systems are medium pressure center-pivot (MPCP), low pressure center-pivot (LPCP), low drift nozzle center-pivot (LDN) , low energy precision application

One of frontiers in agricultural and environmental biotechnology for the arid regions: Micro-pressure drip irrigation technology theory and practices

, 2010
With the goal of reducing cost and energy consumption of drip irrigation systems, the relationship between pressure and cost of drip irrigation systems, as well as the feasibility of reducing the operating pressure, were analyzed.

Adequate Irrigation Amount per Application Is Required to Secure Uniform Water Management in Drip Irrigation Systems

Soil moisture sensor-based drip irrigation enables efficient irrigation practices by delivering the required water to plants. However, efficiency must be accompanied by uniform water management and crop growth. This study examined the effect of different

Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

The effects of greywater irrigation on vegetable crops and soil

, 2013
Research on greywater irrigation has mainly focused attention on the reuse of greywater in relation to its quality and crop biomass but not on quality of edible vegetable crops.

Water Availability and Hydraulic Strategies Control Leaf Thermoregulation and Damage During Heat Stress and Recovery in Temperate Tree Species

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Heatwaves are intensifying worldwide, often coinciding with high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and soil drought. Yet, how temperate tree species tolerate these combined stresses remains elusive. Using single‐tree gas‐exchange chambers, we examined the response of leaf gas exchange and thermoregulation of three broadleaved tree species to a ...

Root surface biomodification in periodontal therapy: Biological rationale and clinical applications

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Regenerative periodontal therapy aims to form new cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone, all sealed by gingival tissue. The root surface acts as the wound margin during this regeneration process. Root surface biomodification (root conditioning/root decontamination), therefore, seems instrumental in promoting surface decontamination

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.
