, 1976 The effect of prescribed burning on physical soil properties of clear-cut areas originally supporting jack pine (Pinusbanksiana Lamb.) was studied in southeastern Manitoba.Average temperatures recorded during three burns ranged from <52 °C at 5-cm ...

Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus
Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

Spatial variability of the least limiting water range of soils under a no‑tillage system
, 2016 The objective of this work was to evaluate the regressions that define the least limiting water range limits and the validity of using this indicator considering the spatial variability of crops under a no‑tillage system.

Maximum water stress is decoupled from climate, traits, and growth in a xeric oak
New Phytologist, EarlyView.We sampled sites across the geographic distribution of blue oak (Quercus douglasii) in California, USA, which spans a large range of mean annual precipitation. Summary Our ability to explain and predict the spatial patterns of forest mortality remains limited.

Soil matrix potential and moisture content in soils containing 0, 5, or 10% filtercake biochar.
, 2014 Treatments were compared using one-way ANOVA with a post hoc Tukey test for samples in each soil moisture bin. Data represent the mean ± SE.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.MYB305a promoter expression increases in pavement cells as they grow and acquire their complex shape. Summary Leaf pavement cells of many plant species develop jigsaw puzzle‐like shapes in which neighboring cells interdigitate, providing an ideal model for the study of cell shape regulation.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Jasmonate signalling underpins establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Activation of the hypersensitive response (HR) not only contains the pathogen but establishes broad spectrum resistance in unchallenged leaves. The strong burst of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species initiating the HR results in lipid peroxidation (illustrated by ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic stresses, particularly Verticillium wilt (VW), lead to a global decline in cotton yields. Here, we demonstrate that ectopic expression of ScALDH21, a gene from the desiccation‐tolerant moss Syntrichia caninervis Mitt. and absent in angiosperms, enhances cotton's resistance to VW.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts rice productivity, necessitating strategies to enhance stress resilience. Here, we identify translation termination as a tunable regulatory node for stress adaptation. Using 25 rounds of SELEX, we isolated RTAR, an RNA aptamer that binds the rice eukaryotic release factor 1 (OseRF1) with nanomolar affinity ...
