Assessing forage mass using smartphone imagery for cereal rye under grazing conditions in Nebraska

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Managing grazing efficiency requires reliable and practical tools to estimate forage mass. Traditional methods like clipping, though accurate, are time consuming and labor intensive. In this study, two imaging tools, Canopeo and the Crop Canopy Image Analyzer (CCIA), were evaluated for their efficacy in estimating the forage mass of cereal rye

Soybean growth and yield after single tillage and species mixture of cover plants

open access: yesRevista Ceres, 2012
The use of cover crops is important for the agricultural crop and soil management in order to improve the system and, consequently, to increase yield. Therefore, the present study analyzed the effect of crop residues of black oat (Avena strigosa Schreb.)

Influence of Soil and Land‐Use/Land‐Cover Data Quality on SWAT Parameter Transferability in Small Subtropical Agricultural Watersheds

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
Does input soil and land‐use quality affect SWAT parameter transfer in neighbouring watersheds? Our proxy‐basin experiment in two small agricultural watersheds under crop–livestock rotations showed that capturing LULC dynamics and refining soil characterization can substantially enhance parameter transferability to ungauged neighbouring watersheds ...

The Role of Two Glycoalkaloid Metabolism Genes in α‐Tomatine Biosynthesis and Basal Defence in Tomato

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
We generated knockout mutants of two tomato genes proposed to be involved in α‐tomatine biosynthesis by genome editing. SlGAME2 mutants contained unaltered α‐tomatine contents; this gene is not involved in its synthesis. SlGAME4 mutants did not accumulate any glycoalkaloids but instead redirected resources towards steroidal saponin synthesis.

Enhancing soil health through no‐till, cover crops, and compost: A 5‐year field study

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract The capacity of soil management systems to conserve and promote soil health is crucial for its sustainability. While the effects of individual soil management practices on soil health receive considerable attention, their combined effects remain understudied. This paper presents the results of a 5‐year field experiment designed to evaluate the

Reducing Nitrogen Fertilizer Dependency in Tropical Pastures Through Azospirillum Brasilense and Pseudomonas Fluorescens Coinoculation

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Coinoculation with Azospirillum brasilense and Pseudomonas fluorescens was associated with maintained forage productivity under reduced nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates in tropical pastures. This hypothesis was evaluated in a 2‐year field experiment conducted over two consecutive growing seasons (2022 and 2023) the State University of Goiás, São Luís de ...

Impacts of Intercropping Maize–Grass–Legume for Silage Production and Oversowing Black Oat for Lamb Grazing on Soil Fertility

open access: yesGrass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 2, April-June 2026.
ABSTRACT Intercropping grasses and legumes could be an important strategy for sustainable food production in tropical weathered soils. This study aimed to assess the impact of intercropping systems comprising maize and grass with or without a legume for silage production and overseeded black oat overseeded for lamb grazing on crop production, root ...

Revealing novelty from the southwestern Atlantic, Yemanjia gen. nov. and Olokunococcus gen. nov. from the coral cyanobiome of the Abrolhos Bank

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 533-555, April 2026.
Abstract Cyanobacteria comprise over 6000 species and inhabit diverse environments, including marine invertebrates such as sponges and corals. High‐throughput sequencing has indicated an abundance of Cyanobacteria communities in these hosts, yet taxonomic resolution has remained low below the phylum level.

How do centipedes and millipedes respond to grazing intensity in an integrated crop-livestock system with soybean-pasture succession? [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
Centipedes and millipedes promote important functions in the ecosystem. However, land use intensification in agricultural areas can reduce the abundance and diversity of these organisms.
