Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...

Effects of Biochar and Maize Roots on CO2 Emissions and Microbial Biomass C in Loess Soils

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Refractory substances such as biochar and labile substances such as dead fine and coarse roots play important roles in soil organic matter dynamics and have key ecological functions. However, interactions between these substances have only rarely been studied.

High Glucosinolate Mustard and Potato Trial [PDF]

, 2013
High glucosinolate mustard (HGM) can be planted as a cover crop to suppress weeds and disease. Studies have shown a reduction in soil-borne diseases, as well as advantages in mitigating weed pressure, after planting HGM cover crops.

Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

Accelerated gross nitrogen cycling following garlic mustard invasion is linked with abiotic and biotic changes to soils

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
IntroductionAlliaria petiolata (garlic mustard), an invasive forest herb in North America, often alters nutrient availability in its non-native ecosystems, but the mechanisms driving these changes have yet to be determined.

A Choline Oxidase Amperometric Bioassay for the Detection of Mustard Agents Based on Screen-Printed Electrodes Modified with Prussian Blue Nanoparticles

Sensors, 2015
In this work a novel bioassay for mustard agent detection was proposed. The bioassay is based on the capability of these compounds to inhibit the enzyme choline oxidase.

Upper Airway Obstruction due to Kaposi Sarcoma—Presenting Sign of HIV: Case Report and Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study presents a case of undiagnosed HIV presenting with Kaposi sarcoma (KS) of the head and neck with acute upper airway obstruction (UAO) and provides an updated scoping literature review to examine the patient characteristics, lesion characteristics, interventions, and outcomes of KS cases with UAO from the pharynx, larynx, and/or trachea.

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.
