Assessing short‐stature corn hybrids for irrigated Mid‐South production systems
Abstract Short‑stature (SS) corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids represent an emerging phenotype with distinct morphological characteristics, but their performance under irrigated Mid‑South conditions is not well documented. We compared two SS hybrids (H1 and H2) and three tall‐stature (TS) hybrids (H3, H4, and H5) over two seasons.

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE) is gaining momentum worldwide, but limited data on UK farmers' preferences hinders our understanding of its potential impact amid deregulation debates. Based on a survey of 200 English arable farmers, we employ a Latent Class Analysis and Multinomial Logit regressions to investigate current preferences for GE crops.

ABSTRACT We conducted two framed field economic experiments with citrus farmers in Florida, United States and soybean farmers in Argentina to investigate their willingness to coordinate pest and weed management efforts. Despite the contrast between these two agricultural contexts, we find striking behavioral commonalities.

Abstract Variability of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and emissions among replicates in a study area can have an impact on results depending on the statistical tools used to assess significant differences among fixed effects. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of site and time (i.e., date) and the variability within and between sites on

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Considerations for Determining Optimal Row Spacing in Soybean Production
Abstract Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) row spacing in the US varies from about 7 to 40 inches, but there has been a widespread shift from wide (≈30 inches) to narrow (≈15 inches) row spacing in the last decades, largely driven by a consensus that narrow rows can yield higher.

Enhancing spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses through late‐winter scalping
Abstract Rapid spring green‐up of warm‐season turfgrasses in the transition zone is often desired to improve early‐season turfgrass quality, thereby increasing the acceptance of these species in arid and semi‐arid climates. This study evaluated the effects of late winter scalping on spring green‐up speed in 41 cultivars of bermudagrass (Cynodon spp ...
