Preliminary evaluation of perennial forage legumes for organic farming in Finland [PDF]
In 1998-2001 fourteen forage legume species were evaluated for their productivity in mixed organic swards. The aim was to find new alternatives for red clover. Medicago falcata produced the highest dry matter yield (about 11 000 kg/ha/year).

Carbon-13 cross-polarization magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (CPMAS NMR) for measuring proanthocyanidin content and procyanidin to prodelphinidin ratio in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) tissues [PDF]
A procedure based on 13C CPMAS NMR was developed to study procyanidins (PCs) and prodelphinidins (PDs) directly in milled sainfoin plant tissues. Blackcurrant and Tilia samples enabled reference spectra of purified proanthocyanidin (PA) fractions, crude ...

This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Dynamics and distribution of weed species in weed associations
Dynamics of weed density with a natural background of weeds in agrophytocenoses of sainfoin (Onobrychis sativa L.), birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), pure grown (100%) and in mixtures with cocksfoot (Dactylis ...

Metabolism of soluble proteins by rumen microorganisms and the influence of condensed tannins on nitrogen solubility and degradation [PDF]
The amino acid requirements of ruminants are met by two sources; microbes leaving the rumen and dietary protein escaping fermentation in the rumen. Much ruminant research has therefore focused on improving amino acid supply to the duodenum by increasing ...

Improving Prediction of Heterotrophic Respiration in Response to Altered Precipitation
Abstract Soil heterotrophic respiration (Rh) is a key process in the global carbon (C) cycle, strongly influenced by interactions between soil temperature and moisture. It is well documented how soil temperature regulates Rh. However, temperature interacts with soil moisture to regulate Rh via dynamic and complex microbial mechanisms, leading to ...
