Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Variation in allelopathic tolerance of vetch cultivars to Sorghum halepense L. (Pers.) extracts [PDF]
Pesticidi i Fitomedicina, 2018 Using allelopathic tolerance of crops and cultivars is considered a promising supplement to weed control strategies. In order to evaluate the allelopathic tolerance of vetch cultivars to Sorghum halepense extracts in germination and initial growth of the

Optimal Grazing Exclusion Duration to Enhance Soil Carbon Sequestration in Degraded Grasslands
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Across China, grazing exclusion reaches the national mean soil organic carbon recovery benchmark sooner in high‐MAP regions (> 500 mm), but recovery is much slower where MAP < 300 mm. Scaling this strategy to 70% of China's degraded grasslands would sequester about 1.52 Pg of soil carbon over 10 years—roughly 17% of annual global fossil‐fuel emissions.

Can Cover or Forage Crops Replace Fallow in the Semiarid Central Great Plains
, 2018 Growing a crop in place of fallow may improve soil properties but result in reduced soil water and crop yields in semiarid regions. This study assessed the effect of replacing fallow in no-till winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–fallow with cover ...

Agronomy, 2018 When applying an aided phytostabilization in trace-element-contaminated agricultural soil, the cultivation of forage crops instead of edible crops can reduce the trace elements transfer to humans while minimizing the income loss of farmers.

Maize Anther Development Involves Translated Open Reading Frames From 3′ Untranslated Regions
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study examined the translation activity across ten stages of maize anther development, integrating transcriptome and small‐peptide data. It linked mutations in translated 3' ORFs to anther sterility, exemplified by Zm00001eb417050_3' ORF (known as APV1). In addition, the data indicated that maize anthers could assimilate CO2 through the stomata in

Allelopathic effects of water extracts of Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers., Convolvulus arvensis L. and Cirsium arvense Scop. on early seedling growth of some leguminous crops [PDF]
Pesticidi i Fitomedicina, 2014 In order to study the allelopathic effect of aboveground dry biomass of Sorghum halepense, Convolvulus arvensis and Cirsium arvense on seed germination and early seedling growth of Pisum sativum (L.), varieties Mir (winter form) and Kerpo (spring form);

High-intensity, year-round rotational grazing [PDF]
, 1995 Compared to row crops, most forage crops reduce water runoff, therefore limiting soil erosion. Forage systems also require less chemical pest control than row crops.

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2018 In livestock systems of the Argentinean Pampas, its forage production stability relies on the integration of two landcovers, annual forage crop sequences and perennial pastures. Despite the key role that these forage cropping systems have on current milk
