Short‐Term Effect of Different Agronomic Managements on Soil Carbon Fractions Content
ABSTRACT This research investigates the short‐term impact of different agricultural management strategies on soil organic matter (SOM), focusing on particulate organic matter (POM) and mineral‐associated organic matter (MAOM). The study assessed the effects of organic fertilisation (compost vs.

Abstract Conventional agriculture in the US Midwest has accelerated crop productivity but also contributed to undesirable environmental issues. Perennial groundcovers (PGCs), such as cool‐season grasses intercropped in the maize (Zea mays L.) interrow, have the potential to reduce soil erosion rates and mitigate nutrient losses.

Management of vegetable crop residues for reducing nitrate leaching losses in intensive vegetable rotations [PDF]
Crop residues of field vegetables are often characterized by large amounts of biomass with a high N-content. Despite low soil temperatures during autumn, high rates of N mineralization and nitrification still occur causing important N-losses through ...

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

A whole‐genome assembly of St. Augustinegrass and visualizing diversity within the species
Abstract St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] is a warm‐season turfgrass species in the family Poaceae. This species is a popular choice for lawns in the Southern United States, due to its higher tolerance to shade, heat and humidity.
