Writing Big in Plant Genomes: Advances, Challenges and Strategies for Targeted Large‐Fragment DNA Insertion

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Precise genome editing has transformed plant biology and crop improvement by enabling targeted modification of endogenous loci. Beyond gene knockout and base editing, the site‐specific insertion of exogenous DNA, particularly large DNA fragments, has become a central goal for engineering complex traits, reconstructing metabolic pathways and ...

Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

Selectivity and efficiency of pre-emergent herbicides on cassava crop

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2013
The chemical control of weeds stands out as an important tool for obtaining high yields in cassava crops. This study aimed at evaluating the selectivity and efficiency of pre-emergent herbicides on cassava (‘Cascuda’ cultivar) crop. The experimental design was randomized blocks, with ten treatments and four replications.

Herbicide protection seed coating technology for improving restoration success in Great Basin sagebrush plant communities

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Invasive annual grasses (IAGs) pose a significant threat to sagebrush rangelands, but restoring native perennial species using seed is challenging because pre‐emergent herbicides, used to control IAGs, also harm desired seedlings. This necessitates seeding after herbicide effects diminish. Objective This collection of three papers

Cirsium arvense management with electrical weed control and clopyralid. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Electrical weed control (EWC) treatments reduced Cirsium arvense biomass by ≤95% and suppressed new shoot emergence by 70–95%, achieving control comparable to clopyralid. Sequential or integrated applications enhanced efficacy, demonstrating EWC's potential as a nonchemical tool for perennial weed management in orchard systems.

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.-Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Seed pellets containing activated carbon increase emergence of native plant species used in dryland restoration following herbicide application

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of dryland ecosystems worldwide are degraded, making restoration a priority. Most dryland restoration efforts use seed‐based approaches, which often result in limited establishment of desirable species. The dual challenges of abiotic stressors and invasive species dominance are key barriers to native plant community ...

Integrating herbicide application and seeding techniques to restore native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass‐dominated rangelands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum)‐dominated rangelands is a persistent challenge in ecological restoration across western North America. Dense, long‐lived stands of this exotic grass suppress native seedling recruitment, hinder habitat restoration, and reduce ecosystem resilience ...
