Optimal Grazing Exclusion Duration to Enhance Soil Carbon Sequestration in Degraded Grasslands

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Identification of a cytokinin-responsive core promoter and interacting transcription factors of MtCKX1 in Medicago truncatula

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Cytokinin oxidases/dehydrogenases (CKXs) are key enzymes regulating cytokinin homeostasis and plant development, yet their transcriptional regulation remains poorly characterized, especially in legumes.

Technological Innovations in Pasture Fertilization in Brazil—Pathways to Sustainability and High Productivity

open access: yesGrasses
Although pastures cover nearly half of Brazil’s agricultural land and form the backbone of national livestock production, they have historically received limited attention regarding management and fertilization, resulting in widespread degradation ...

The Faraday Scalpel: Electrochemical Nerve Lesioning Mechanisms Studied in Invertebrate Models

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Direct‐current produces nerve lesioning through discrete electrochemical reactions. Using hypoxia‐sensitive locust nerves and hypoxia‐tolerant leech nerves, we map three injury pathways: cathodic oxygen reduction, cathodic alkalization, and anodic chloride oxidation. These findings establish electrochemical lesioning—the “Faraday Scalpel”—as a precise,

Application of the AgS (Agricultural Crop Simulator) Model to Simulate the Biomass Production of Marandu Palisadegrass Managed Under Rotational Stocking with Cattle

open access: yesGrasses
The use of plant growth simulation models, such as the Agricultural Crop Simulator (AgS), can support planning and management decisions in pasture-based animal production systems.

Seasonal priority effects: Implications for invasion and restoration in California coastal sage scrub [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Competition from exotic annual grasses (EAGs) threatens native plant communities in California. Coastal sage scrub communities have substantially diminished in area over the last century, in some instances by greater than 90%, while EAGs continue to ...

MGDP: Mastering a Generalized Depth Perception Model for Quadruped Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perception‐based Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) controllers demonstrate impressive performance on challenging terrains. However, existing controllers still face core limitations, struggling to achieve both terrain generality and platform transferability, and are constrained by high computational overhead and sensitivity to sensor noise.

Multivariate Analysis of the Bioclimatic and Soil Determinants That Model the Distribution of Bidens pilosa L. in Veracruz, Mexico

open access: yesGrasses
Bidens pilosa L. is a cosmopolitan and invasive weed that strongly impacts agricultural systems in tropical regions. In Veracruz, Mexico, its presence extends mainly across mid-elevation zones where coffee, maize, and sugarcane are cultivated. This study

Summer Annual Variety Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Warm season grasses, such as sorghums, sudangrass, crosses, and millets are high-yielding summer annuals that can provide quality forage in the hot summer months, when cool season grasses are not as productive.
