Climate change effects on biomass and greenhouse gas emissions are ameliorated by nontoxic endophytes in southeastern USA transition zone tall fescue pastures

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Tall fescue produces more biomass and less carbon dioxide from the soil when it contains its beneficial fungal endophyte. Increased temperatures projected with climate change reduce fescue biomass, while altered rainfall frequency does not. Altering rainfall frequency and increasing temperatures can reduce carbon dioxide emissions from soil.

Exploring variations in potential carbon and nitrogen mineralization in managed grasslands among the diversity of soils in North Carolina

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Under steady–state conditions, potential nitrogen mineralization in soil under grasslands is closely tied to potential carbon mineralization. This study provides supporting evidence that field–specific nitrogen fertilizer recommendations could be indicated by using a simple and rapid analysis of soil–test biological activity.

Co‐inoculation with Bacillus and exopolysaccharide Cp2‐exopolysaccharides promotes salt stress tolerance and productivity in alfalfa

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Co‐inoculation with Bacillus and Cp2‐Exopolysaccharides (EPS) promotes salt stress tolerance and productivity in alfalfa. CK1 (control1): distilled water, DN2: Bacillus strain DN2, EPS: Exopolysaccharide, CK2 (control2): 100 mmol·L‐1 NaCl, S: Salt. Abstract Background Alfalfa is one of the most important forage crops in the world, and its performance ...

Genomic selection for nitrogen use efficiency in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) under field conditions

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
There is genetic variation in ryegrass for the ability to respond to nitrogen fertilizer, Breeding nitrogen use efficient cultivars can increase farm profitability and sustainability. Abstract Background Improving the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of pastures has the benefit of reducing costs of production and reducing nitrogen loss to the environment.
