Root Structural and Metabolic Plasticity Confers Tolerance to Salinity in Wild Barley Species Grown Under Waterlogging

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity combined with waterlogging is a major abiotic stress that severely limits crop growth and yield. We investigated species‐specific adaptations to salinity under constant waterlogging conditions in the wild halophytic barleys Hordeum marinum and H. glaucum, compared with the cultivated H. vulgare.

Legacy Effects of Cropping System and Precipitation Influence the Core Camelina sativa Microbiome

Phytobiomes Journal
Camelina (Camelina sativa L.) is a potential biofuel crop and beneficial rotation crop in dryland cropping systems. Little is known about camelina microbiota or the legacy effect of soil origin/cropping system zones on camelina-associated microbiome ...

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.

Estimation of USLE crop and management factor values for crop rotation systems in China

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
Soil erosion on cropland is a major source of environmental problems in China ranging from the losses of a non-renewable resource and of nutrients at the source to contamination of downstream areas. Regional soil loss assessments using the Universal Soil

Seed pellets containing activated carbon increase emergence of native plant species used in dryland restoration following herbicide application

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of dryland ecosystems worldwide are degraded, making restoration a priority. Most dryland restoration efforts use seed‐based approaches, which often result in limited establishment of desirable species. The dual challenges of abiotic stressors and invasive species dominance are key barriers to native plant community ...

Trait‐based restoration in African dryland restoration projects: overcoming systemic and scientific barriers for a viable future

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction African dryland restoration continues to show low success rates despite major pledges, due to persistent water scarcity, ecological complexity, and limited use of trait‐based restoration (TBR). Functional trait‐based approaches, which match species selection to adaptive traits, could strengthen ecosystem recovery under arid ...

Evaluation with Simulation of Lucerne-Based Cropping Systems to Combat Dryland Salinity in Australia

, 2023
Dryland salinity is one of the most significant forms of land degradation that farmers face in Australia. There are currently 2.5 million ha affected by dryland salinity in Australia, and this may rise to 15 million ha over the next 30 to 100 years if no

Impacts of reclamation approaches on plant establishment in an arid environment during copper mine revegetation

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Revegetation using native vegetation is a commonly used technique to reclaim landscapes degraded by mining activities. Revegetation efforts in the arid Southwestern United States face physical, geochemical, hydrological, and biological challenges unique to drylands.

The intensification revolution in dryland cropping systems: implications from field to landscape scale [PDF]

, 2017
2017 Fall.Includes bibliographical references.A global transformation in semi-arid cropping systems is occurring as dryland (non-irrigated) farmers shift from crop rotations reliant on year-long periods of bare fallow to more intensively cropped systems.
