Abstract Compared with conventional tillage, no‐till reduces soil erosion and is considered a more sustainable practice in dryland cropping systems of the Pacific Northwest. However, weed management in these systems relies solely on herbicides, and the number of herbicide‐resistant weeds is increasing each year.

Removal of cadmium from aqueous solution using marine green algae, Ulva lactuca
The present study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of marine algae for removal of metals from the aqueous solution. The green alga, Ulva lactuca, collected from the intertidal zone of the Suez Bay, northern part of the Red Sea was used to reduce cadmium ...

The isolation of flowering time genes from lettuce to enable the manipulation of bolting time [PDF]
The time of bolting is an important factor in lettuce production because it affects the yield and quality of the harvested crop. Bolting is promoted by higher temperatures and is an increasing problem for growers with the current trend for warmer ...

ABSTRACT Biochar (BC) is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural amendment to improve soil health, promote plant growth, and suppress insect pests. While its application has been extensively refined in conventional soil‐based agroecosystems, its performance in hydroponics, particularly in liquid formulations remain largely unexplored. The

Rising Indoor Wheat Yields in Vertical Farming
ABSTRACT Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is central to human nutrition but increasingly challenged by climate change and resource constraints. Vertical farming offers a potential solution through controlled, year‐round cultivation, but the upper limits of productivity remain unclear.

Biotic interactions are fundamental to the structuring of marine communities. Predator–prey and competitive interactions can drive species distribution, abundance and mediate individual behaviour. These interactions are especially important to understand in the context of restoration.
