Abstract Background In a bid to lower the oil uptake and moisture content of plantain chips during deep fat frying, plantain chips prior to frying were pretreated in ultrasound with distilled water (UP), freeze‐drying (FP), and ultrasound‐assisted freeze‐drying (UFP).

Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...

Effect of dicyandiamide‐treated urea on furrow‐irrigated rice yield and nitrogen uptake
Abstract Furrow‐irrigated rice (FIR; Oryza sativa L.) has been grown in the upper Mid‐South since the 1980s. Nitrogen use in FIR is less efficient than direct‐seeded, delayed‐flood rice due to the lack of a flood, which ultimately protects applied nitrogen (N) from nitrification and subsequent denitrification.

This study investigates the effects of soaking method (ultrasound‐assisted soaking and conventional soaking), soaking solutions with varying pH (distilled water, citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate), and soaking times (4, 8, and 12 h) on anti‐nutritional factors (phytic acid and trypsin inhibitor contents), moisture absorption, and hardness of ...

Abstract Poor soil fertility and inappropriate plant density are the major factors that constrain the productivity of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in tropical Africa, including Ethiopia. This problem necessitates improving soil fertility and optimizing agronomic practices.

Advances in Salinity Tolerance of Soybean: Molecular Mechanism and Breeding Strategy
ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a substantial environmental stressor that limits plant growth and development. Soil salinization has, therefore, emerged as a substantial barrier to crop production, particularly affecting soybean production in arable regions.

Abstract Without appropriate and ongoing management interventions, weeds will continue to economically and environmentally disadvantage agricultural and natural ecosystems. For these management strategies to have long‐term sustained success, they need to carefully consider the biological aspects of the targeted weed.

Using red–green–blue vegetation indices to evaluate complex agronomical traits in soybean breeding
Abstract High‐throughput phenotyping is an emerging tool that allows access to identify simple and complex traits, accelerating genetic discoveries and selection. Vegetation indices strongly correlate with several economic crop traits, allowing plant breeders to detect variation in breeding populations.

Resource selection and survival of plains sharp‐tailed grouse at a wind energy facility
Abstract As the demand for wind energy development increases across much of the Great Plains region, there is a need to understand how this type of energy generation may impact wildlife. Due to their extensive range across areas with high wind resources, plains sharp‐tailed grouse (Tympanuchus phasianellus jamesiTympanuchus phasianellus jamesi ...
