Five foundational tools for managing metadata from the USDA Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The United States Department of Agriculture Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network comprises 19 sites and has collectively produced nearly one petabyte of data. Data include time‐series measurements, remotely sensed imagery, and high‐throughput environmental data from field and laboratory instrumentation.

Obstacles Influence Red Flour Beetle (Tribolium castaneum) Movement More Than Path Length or Turns

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Movement is a fundamental aspect of animal behavior and ecology, playing an important role in survival and reproduction by enabling animals to locate food, find mates, evade predators, and explore new habitats. Various factors influence movement, including landscape complexity, physical obstacles, and animal morphology.

Targeting Agrobacterium tumefaciens: A Computational Study on Quorum Sensing Inhibition

Journal of Basic Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crown gall disease, caused by Agrobacterium tumefaciens, results in significant loss in agricultural productivity losses due to induced tumor‐like growths on various crops. The virulence of A. tumefaciens is controlled by its quorum sensing (QS) system, specifically through the TraR protein, which regulates the expression of genes essential ...

Deviation From the Regression of Yield on Nitrogen Fertiliser Rate as a Tool for Detecting Fraud in Organic Banana Production

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aims Bananas are demanding in nitrogen (N) input; therefore, there is a temptation for organic farmers for using synthetic N fertilisers, which are not allowed under organic standards. The aim of our study was to develop a tool that identifies high banana yields obtained with suspiciously low organic N input.
