Long-term carbon and nitrogen dynamics at SPRUCE revealed through stable isotopes in peat profiles [PDF]

, 2017
Peatlands encode information about past vegetation dynamics, climate, and microbial processes. Here, we used δ15N and δ13C patterns from 16 peat profiles to deduce how the biogeochemistry of the Marcell S1 forested bog in northern Minnesota responded to ...

Contrasting CO2‐response strategies in Pardina lentils: Yield maximization in a commercial cultivar and seed composition adjustment in a landrace

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Assessing crop's responses to elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2) is crucial for global food security. This study examines the impact of eCO2 (700 μmol mol−1) on the cultivars of lentil (Lens culinaris), local Pardina Verde Rayada lentil (PVRL), and commercial Pardina lentil (PL) in terms of the productivity and nutritional composition ...

Effect of CO2 Enrichment on the Translocation and Partitioning of Carbon at the Early Grain-filling Stage in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Plant Production Science, 2005
Rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) were grown under normal (350 µL L-1 CO2) and CO2-enriched (660 µ L L-1 CO2) conditions, and 13CO2 was supplied to the rice plants after heading to examine the translocation and partitioning of photosynthate at the early ...

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Multifaceted obscurity of Thismia abei (Thismiaceae): A fairy lantern with the protologue long disregarded in practice

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

Adaptive Responses of Biofortified Common Bean Lines to Acidic Soil and High Temperatures in the Colombian Amazon Region

Agronomy
One of the strategies to combat micronutrient malnutrition is by developing biofortified common bean lines (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) capable of tolerating different stress conditions.

Kentucky Bluegrass Photosynthate Partitioning Following Scheduled Mowing

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1987
Abstract The distribution of photosynthetically fixed carbon within a turfgrass sod was investigated following a routine mowing. The partitioning of 14 C-labeled photosynthate was monitored in Kentucky bluegrass ( Poa pratensis L. cvs.

Developing together: The elementome and biogeochemical niche of the mutualistic occupants of a fig microcosm

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In brood‐site pollination mutualisms, where flowers provide nutrition and shelter to pollinator offspring in exchange for pollination, resource allocation to inflorescences is directly related to plant and pollinator fitness.

Effect of ”Komba-komba” Pruning Compost and Planting TIME of Mungbean in Intercropping with Maize on Yield and Soil Fauna [PDF]

, 2013
Soil fauna plays an important role in decomposition and nutrient mineralization. The objective of this research was to study the effect of "komba-komba" compost and planting time of mungbean intercropped with maize on yield and soil fauna.
