15Nitrogen transfer from legumes to neighbouring plants in multi-species grassland [PDF]
This study investigates the N transfer from legumes to neighbouring plants, grasses, legumes and herbs in a temperate grassland. In a field experiment white clover (Trifolium repens), red clover (Trifolium pratense) and lucerne (Medicago sativa) were ...

India–United States Agricultural Trade Under the America‐First Agenda
ABSTRACT This article examines India–United States agricultural trade under the America‐First agenda, highlighting trade patterns, tariff structures, and potential impacts of United States trade policies. Total agricultural trade remains modest at $7 billion annually, with India imposing higher tariffs (average 39%) than the United States (5%).

Potential economic gains from using forage legumes in organic livestock systems in northern Europe [PDF]
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference of the Colloquium of Organic Researchers (COR). Forage legumes, with their ability to fix nitrogen biologically, seem especially attractive for organic livestock production.

The hepta-β-glucoside elicitor-binding proteins from legumes represent a putative receptor family [PDF]
The ability of legumes to recognize and respond to β-glucan elicitors by synthesizing phytoalexins is consistent with the existence of a membrane-bound β-glucan-binding site.

LEXSYS: Architecture and Implication for Intelligent Agent systems [PDF]
LEXSYS, (Legume Expert System) was a project conceived at IITA (International Institute of Tropical Agriculture) Ibadan Nigeria. It was initiated by the COMBS (Collaborative Group on Maize-Based Systems Research in the 1990. It was meant for a general framework for characterizing on-farm testing for technology design for sustainable cereal-based ...

A new spin on chemotaxonomy: Using non‐proteogenic amino acids as a test case
Abstract Premise Specialized metabolites serve various roles for plants and humans. Unlike core metabolites, specialized metabolites are restricted to certain plant lineages; thus, in addition to their ecological functions, specialized metabolites can serve as diagnostic markers of plant lineages.

Spatial variation of grassland canopy affects soil wetting patterns and preferential flow
Spatially heterogeneous canopy and pre‐event soil moisture conditions changed soil‐wetting patterns. Taller grass, together with drier soil, weakens soil moisture response, probably because of uneven water input and dryness induced preferential flow. Abstract Canopies shape net precipitation patterns, which are spatially heterogeneous and control soil ...

Risk analysis of maize-legume crop combinations with smallholder farmers varying in resource endowment in central Malawi [PDF]
Using farmer resource typologies, adaptability analysis and an on-farm mother and baby trial approach, we evaluated the production risks of alternative maize-legume crop combinations for smallholder farmers in Chisepo, central Malawi between 1998 and ...

Whole-genome modeling accurately predicts quantitative traits in plants [PDF]
Understanding the relationship between genomic variation and variation in phenotypes for quantitative traits such as physiology, yield, fitness or behavior, will provide important insights for both predicting adaptive evolution and for breeding schemes.
