Selectivity of the herbicide metribuzin for pre- and post-emergence applications in potato cultivation

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2018
Metribuzin is the most commonly used herbicide in potato cultivation in Brazil, but there are few reports in literature regarding its selectivity, especially when applied to post-emergent potato plants.

No Cocoa Without Deforestation? A Field‐Type Analysis of Forest Frontiers in West Africa

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyses the interrelations of production systems, class relations and deforestation in a smallholder forest frontier. Using the concept of field types, we provide a plot‐level analysis of deforestation processes in West Africa, where smallholders convert forest into cocoa farms.

Between Autonomy and Dependency: The Territorialisation of Agroecology in the Colombian Peasant Reserve Zones

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peasant movements employ a spectrum of politico‐economic strategies for territorialising agroecology, ranging from autonomy to (inter)dependency. To substantiate this argument, I draw on qualitative fieldwork and historical analysis to examine the Colombian Peasant Reserve Zone movement's strategies for territorialising agroecology at both the

Comparative Efficiency of Herbicides in Rice (Var. IR. 20) Under Different Methods of Planting

open access: yesMadras Agricultural Journal, 1974
Experiments were conducted to study the weed control efficiency of herbicides in rice (var. IR. 20), using two forms of pre-emergence herbicides, namely, butachlor (EC) and G) and a post-emergence herbicide. propanil.

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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Genetic and Phenotypic Diversity of European Triticale: GWAS of Yellow Rust Resistance and Agronomic Traits

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triticale (x Triticosecale Wittmack) is an interspecific hybrid of wheat and rye. It is a promising grain and forage crop that thrives in poorer soils and low‐input farming systems. It can serve as a viable alternative to traditional small grains such as wheat and barley, bringing diversity to crop rotations and enhancing biodiversity in ...

Enhancing Predictive Ability of Agronomic and Quality Traits in Ethiopian Malting Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Using Spectral Variable Selection Methods

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phenomic selection (PS) offers a cost‐effective, breeder‐friendly approach for public breeding programmes with limited access to genotyping or restricted financial resources for laboratory infrastructure. Since PS relies on high‐throughput phenotyping data, which is often derived from near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) of harvested seeds ...

Effects of Antimitotic Agents, Temperature and Immersion Time on Chromosome Doubling Efficiency in Supersweet Corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata)

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Doubled haploid technology accelerates the development of fully homozygous maize lines compared with conventional selfing. However, specific protocols for supersweet corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata), particularly regarding immersion time in antimitotic solutions and temperature during chromosome doubling, remain poorly defined.
