Hydrological Processes, Volume 36, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 How does biochar impact soil water storage? After adding biochar to an upland rice field in Costa Rica, we observed a shift in the soil water retention curves, indicating that rice plants had 2%–7% more water available. The isotopic composition of plant water did not vary with biochar, indicating rice plants likely consumed similar water.

Climbing bean breeding for disease resistance and grain quality traits
Legume Science, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is grown in two growth types, bush and climbing beans. The latter are preferred in several regions in East and Southern African as well as in Latin America (dominant in Rwanda and Colombia), due to higher yields and resilience compared with bush type.

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 941-954, June 2021., 2021 We investigate whether three bamboo species from the Brazilian Cerrado exhibit unique adaptations that suppress photorespiratory costs and enhance photosynthetic efficiency. The bamboos exhibited the lowest C* value ever reported for a C3 plant, approaching the values reported for C2 plants.
