Synergistic effects of grass competition and insect herbivory on the weed Rumex obtusifolius in an inundative biocontrol approach

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Outcomes of weed biological control projects are highly variable, but a mechanistic understanding of how top-down and bottom-up factors influence the success of weed biological control is often lacking.

Pathogen and drought stress affect cell wall and phytohormone signaling to shape host responses in a sorghum COMT bmr12 mutant

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background As effects of global climate change intensify, the interaction of biotic and abiotic stresses increasingly threatens current agricultural practices. The secondary cell wall is a vanguard of resistance to these stresses.

Assessment of the genetic diversity of cattle by marker genes of dairy productivity

open access: yesВетеринария и кормление
Absrtact. The paper presents an assessment of the genetic diversity of cattle by the genes of dairy productivity: kappa-casein (CSN3), beta-casein (CSN2), beta-casein A1A2 (CSN2 A1A2) and genes involved in the regulation of milk production: fatty acid ...

Common vetch (Vicia sativa) multi-podded mutants for enhanced commercial seed production

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2019
In comparison to other annual forage legumes, such as pea (Pisum sativum L.), advances in breeding vetches (Vicia spp.) are rather modest. One of the main obstacles in increasing the cultivation area under vetches is uncertain seed production, mostly due

Taro leaf and stylo forage as protein sources for pigs in Laos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Existing forage plants may have applications as alternative protein resources for pigs in smallholder farming systems. This thesis examined the effect of harvesting/defoliation interval on the yield and chemical composition of taro leaves and stylo ...
