Science of The Total Environment, 2023 Disentangling competitive-response and -effect abilities has strongly improved our understanding of the role of competition for the diversity and composition of plant communities. Much less is known about the relative importance of facilitative-effect and -response abilities in harsh ecosystems. Here, we aim to fill this gap by simultaneously assessing

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...
