Diverse Prairie Mixtures Stabilize Biomass Yields for Sustainable Aviation Fuel Production
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Meeting global demand for sustainable aviation fuel will require the additional production of vast quantities of plant biomass, which does not compete with food production or degrade sensitive ecosystems. Our multisite experiment shows that sowing diverse native prairie seed mixes—and managing them without intensive inputs—yields a more reliable ...

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...
