Comparing various sulfur sources for soybean grown on an acid Oxisol in Brazil
Abstract A greenhouse experiment and a 2‐yr field trial were conducted to compare various S sources for soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] grown on an acid Oxisol in Brazil. In the greenhouse, the sources included ammonium sulfate (AMS), monoammonium phosphate with a S ratio = 50:50 of AMS/elemental S (ES) – (AMS + ES), and ES + bentonite containing 90 ...

Cropping system diversity and tillage intensity affects wheat productivity in Texas
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in Texas depends heavily on conventional tillage (CT) and a long summer fallow period, which contributes to soil degradation. This study compared the impact of reducing tillage intensity (CT, no‐tillage, and strip‐tillage) combined with summer cropping to CT–summer fallow on wheat establishment, grain ...

A dynamic model to simulate the development of insecticide resistance [PDF]
In this article, we described a dynamic model to simulate the development of insecticide resistance. The variables as insecticide use dosage, timing and frequency of insecticide uses, genetic mutagenicity of insect individuals, insecticide-resistant ...
