Tumour deposits are associated with increased metastatic risk in colorectal cancer: a population‐based analysis of metastatic patterns and burden

Histopathology, EarlyView.
In this population‐based cohort of 3505 patients with colorectal cancer without distant metastases at diagnosis, tumour deposits are independently associated with an increased risk of distant metastases (HR 1.34, 95% CI 1.03–1.74). This finding supports consideration of tumour deposits in future risk stratification strategies.

Influence of soil type on the wilting of plants [PDF]

, 2013
It has been shown that the water remaining in soil when plants wilt due to soil limitations and the residual water content as observed when soils are de-watered in pressure cell apparatus are essentially the same.

Bacteriomes, cryptic forms and evolution of a common wireworm pest species, Hypnoidus bicolor

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Wireworms are important agricultural pests, including Hypnoidus bicolor in the Canadian Prairies. Parthenogenetic and sexual populations of H. bicolor appear associated with different molecular clades. Bacterial community composition and structure were influenced by developmental stage, sampling location and host genetics.

Polymer tensiometers with ceramic cones: direct observations of matric pressures in drying soils [PDF]

, 2010
Measuring soil water potentials is crucial to characterize vadose zone processes. Conventional tensiometers only measure until approximately −0.09 MPa, and indirect methods may suffer from the non-uniqueness in the relationship between matric potential ...

Hydromulches in Organic Strawberry Production: Effects on Densities of Insect Pests and Natural Enemies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liquid‐sprayable cellulose hydromulches (HM) are alternatives to plastic polyethylene (PE) mulches for weed suppression in organic agriculture. However, their impact on arthropod pests and natural enemies remains unexplored. Various HMs made of shredded newsprint, water and guar gum were compared against white‐on‐black PE mulch, paper sheet ...

Impact of soil moisture over Palmer Drought Severity Index and its future projections in Brazil

RBRH, 2017
Soil moisture is a main factor for the study of drought impacts on vegetation. Drought is a regional phenomenon and affects the food security more than any other natural disaster.

Patent landscape analysis of inventions based on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and related digital sequence information

The Journal of World Intellectual Property, EarlyView.
Abstract This article provides an overview of the patent landscape in relation to PGRFA‐based inventions involving naturally occurring (“native”) traits and related Digital Sequence Information/Genetic Sequence Data (DSI/GSD). In particular, it focuses on the potential of patent claims to limit others' uses of PGRFA and related DSI/GSD on which the ...

Effects of Clay Mineral Application on Soil Moisture Status, Physiological Traits and Yield of Rainfed Tomato under Semi-Arid Alfisols

Journal of Horticultural Sciences, 2007
The effects of application of farm yard manure (FYM) and clay mineral (CM) on soil and plant characteristics like soil moisture at field capacity, permanent wilting point, leaf area, leaf nitrogen, relative water content, yield of tomato were examined ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
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.

Influence of irrigation and cultivar on peanut growth and yield

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Understanding the influence of cultural practices on peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) growth and development is important for enhancing production in North Carolina. Irrigation practices and cultivar selection can influence pest reaction, peanut pod yield, and market grade characteristics.
