Addressing multiple management goals during roadside restoration: reducing weed invasion and fire risk while enhancing native plants and pollinator habitat in semiarid, invaded grasslands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Roadside vegetation management efforts often target a single desirable outcome; however, we frequently have multiple management goals for restoration. Multiple goals may be achieved concurrently, but the efficacy of roadside revegetation methods is largely unclear, especially when multiple methods are combined.

Stem Smut (Ustilago hypodytes) on Intermediate Wheatgrass in Canada

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2001
Intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium [Host] Barkworth & D.R. Dewey) (syn. Agropyron intermedium [Host] Beauv.) is becoming an important forage grass species in Alberta, Canada. Severe losses in seed yield due to stem smut (Ustilago hypodytes [Schlecht.] Fr.) were noted in a 70-acre field near Warner, AB, in 1999.

Multi-Allelic Haplotype-Based Association Analysis Identifies Genomic Regions Controlling Domestication Traits in Intermediate Wheatgrass

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Intermediate wheatgrass (IWG) is a perennial forage grass undergoing a rigorous domestication as a grain crop. As a young grain crop, several agronomic and domestication traits need improvement for IWG to be relevant in current agricultural landscapes ...

Foliar iron and zinc applications mitigate salinity stress in Althaea officinalis L.: Effects on yield, antioxidant responses, and mineral composition

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Foliar application of micronutrients may help alleviate the adverse effects of salinity on crop plants. This study evaluated the effects of foliar‐applied iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) on Althaea officinalis L. grown under saline conditions. A factorial experiment was conducted using three salinity levels (0, 4, and 8 dS m−1, imposed with NaCl) and ...

Simulating the effect of perennialized cropping systems on nitrate-N losses using the SWAT model

open access: yesFrontiers in Agronomy, 2023
Several newly released crop varieties, including the perennial intermediate wheatgrass (grain marketed as Kernza®), and the winter hardy oilseed crop camelina, have been developed to provide both economic return for farmers and reduced nutrient losses ...

Early‐life stage phenomic prediction of field agronomic traits across breeding cycles in intermediate wheatgrass

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Perennial grains represent a promising frontier for sustainable agriculture, but breeding progress is constrained by the accessibility of genotyping and the difficulty of evaluating complex traits expressed for multiple years after establishment across heterogeneous environments.

An IRAT109 NAM population: Genetic characterization and mapping utility for trait dissection in japonica rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Complex agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) are controlled by many genetic loci; however, dissection is often constrained in biparental mapping populations by limited recombination and narrow genetic diversity, and in diversity sets by spurious associations arising from cryptic relatedness.

Deep-Rooted Plant Species Recruit Distinct Bacterial Communities in the Subsoil

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal, 2022
Deep-rooted plants can obtain water and nutrients from the subsoil, making them resilient to climatic changes. Plant growth and health may depend on interactions with root-associated bacteria but the composition and assembly dynamics of deep-root ...
