ABSTRACT Drought constitutes a major abiotic stress limiting alfalfa productivity. To elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted in alfalfa, which identified a CBF/DREB1 family transcription factor designated MsCBF8.

ABSTRACT Plant architecture, especially plant height and tiller angle, plays a pivotal role in determining wheat yield. In this study, we characterize a wheat mutant termed prostrate and semidwarf 1 (prose1), exhibiting both a prostrate growth habit and semidwarfism.

ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Additive Variance and Open‐Pollinated Progenies Under Mixed Mating
ABSTRACT Open‐pollinated progeny tests are still widely interpreted as if all the individuals within a maternal family were true half‐sibs. However, in species with mixed mating systems, this assumption is often biologically unrealistic and may bias the estimation of the additive variance, narrow‐sense heritability and expected selection gains.

ABSTRACT Agricultural weeds typically combine high reproductive output with fast vegetative growth. Here we analyzed the processes that overcome a potential trade‐off between vegetative growth and reproduction in the weed Avena fatua. We determined photosynthetic function of inflorescences and analyzed the transcriptomes of individual inflorescence ...

Drought and waterlogging induce distinct species‐specific metabolic, physiological and transcriptional responses in Allium cepa and Allium × cornutum. Abstract Increasing variability in water availability, caused by changing climatic conditions, is a major constraint for onion production.

No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration
Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF EARLY ESTABLISHMENT PERFORMANCES OF PERENNIAL WHEAT GENOTYPES
Perennial wheat (Triticum aestivum L. × Thinopyrum spp.) presents a promising alternative to conventional annual wheat for sustainable agriculture, offering advantages such as enhanced soil health and reduced environmental impact. This study evaluated the early establishment performances of 20 perennial wheat genotypes sourced from diverse donors ...

Abstract Kentucky producers have sought to add industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for grain, fiber, and/or floral material to their cropping systems since hemp's legalization in the 2018 Farm Bill. This study sought to quantify hemp's impact on ecosystem services provisioned by the traditional corn (Zea mays L.)–soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr ...
