Soil biota in grassland, its ecosystem services and the impact of management [PDF]
In the search for sustainable grassland systems, self-regulating processes in the soil become increasingly important. Soil biota play an important role in these processes and in the provision of various ecosystem services. For grassland systems important

Structural Variations Associated with Adaptation and Coat Color in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau Cattle
This study reveals the landscape of structural variants in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau cattle through long‐read sequencing. Discoveries include metabolic and oxygen‐regulation gene variants, along with a 2‐Mb KIT‐containing inversion and translocations responsible for cattle gray coat. These findings highlight the significant role of structural variants in

Nitrogen management on large organic dairy farms [PDF]
Large dairy herds need much grassland near the farm. Utilisation and losses of nitrogen in such grass-intensive crop rotations can be controlled by management: In grassland, grazing days or fertiliser input can be reduced, and following grassland ...

Development of Future Habitat Suitability Models for the Swift fox (Vulpes velox) in the American Southwest [PDF]
The Swift fox (Vupes velox) is a habitat specialist species of short or mixed grass prairie. We used bioclimatic envelope models and habitat suitability models under three future climate scenarios (based on CO2 emission rates) from "www ...

Tumor‐associated TP53 inactivation correlates with lipid droplet (LD) accumulation. High‐fat diets drive Cyb5r3‐Myh9‐mediated p53 enrichment on LD surfaces, accelerating its degradation while upregulating LD‐promoting factor CD36 expression to establish a feed‐forward loop. LD suppression or dietary intervention restores p53 and inhibits tumorigenesis,

This review highlights advances in soil organic carbon (SOC) quantification using remote sensing, proximal soil sensing, AI (ML and DL), and biogeochemical modelling. Integrating diverse data sources and models improves SOC prediction accuracy. Key priorities include enhancing data availability, refining models, incorporating microbial processes, and ...

SummaryThis study constructs a single‐cell immune atlas of Nile tilapia across multiple time points during Streptococcus agalactiae infection, revealing dynamic immune cell responses and subtype transitions. It identifies a conserved IFNr‐STAT1‐IL8 axis driving il8+ neutrophils activation and antibacterial function, supported by cross‐species ...

Grassland plant diversity in relation to historical and current land use [PDF]
About 150 years ago agriculture was drastically reformed and around 90% of the formerly vastly distributed semi-natural grasslands, i.e. unfertilised and uncultivated grasslands, have since then disappeared.

Are Namibia's Grasslands Desertifying? [PDF]
We compared the herbage standing crop on 31 farms along a rainfall gradient in Namibia (southwestern Africa) in 1997 with the results attained for the same gradient by Walter (1939). We found that the slope for the regression of herbage yield on mean annual rainfall in 1997 was 5.93, i.e. 5.93 kg herbage was produced per hectare for every 1 mm increase
