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
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.

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 ...

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
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 ...

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.

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
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 ...
