Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...

Mass digitisation of natural science collections and archives has increasingly become a priority for scientific heritage institutions. Here, we explore the potential of mass digitisation to improve our understanding of the nature and history of scientific collaboration. Focusing on mycologist Greta B.
