Domestication as innovation : the entanglement of techniques, technology and chance in the domestication of cereal crops [PDF]
The origins of agriculture involved pathways of domestication in which human behaviours and plant genetic adaptations were entangled. These changes resulted in consequences that were unintended at the start of the process.

Registration of ‘VT Beahm’ winter forage barley
Abstract ‘VT Beahm’ (Reg. no CV‐384, PI 702638) is an awnless, six‐row barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar with a winter growth habit. VT Beahm was released by the Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station in May 2021. Prior to being named, VT Beahm was tested under the experimental designation VA16BFHB‐268 NA.

Mineral nutrition and its genetic signature in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.): A possible panorama for high yielding materials at low fertiliser cost [PDF]
Significant differences in the mineral nutrition have been demonstrated between progenies and the main categories at PT Socfindo (Jacquemard et al, 2002). A new set of investigations has been conducted based on a larger genetic background.

ABSTRACT The Australian Crop Mirid (ACM), Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae), is highly polyphagous and is endemic to Australia. It is widely distributed across Australia and New Zealand and feeds on a wide range of agricultural crops. ACM has traditionally been a pest of forage crops and legumes but has recently emerged as a key pest of several

Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Morphologically Chiral Crystals From Achiral Dyes
Twisted crystals with varied and beautiful morphology appear when grown from solution for a dye family—the diketopyrrolopyrroles whose structure is shown in the picture. The morphology depends on the R group, where all twisting arises from an auto‐deformation mechanism of the growing crystals that unwind as they get thicker.

Koenigia bingchachaensis Bo Xu & H. Sun (Polygonaceae), a remarkable new species from the alpine subnival of Zayü County, Xizang, China, is described and illustrated. The integrative evidence from morphology and phylogenetics confirms the status of K. bingchachaensis as a new species, which also highlights the ongoing discovery of unique biodiversity ...

Marine flora and fauna of the eastern United States Mollusca: Cephalopoda [PDF]
The cephalopods found in neritic waters of the northeastern United States include myopsid and oegopsid squids, sepiolid squids, and octopods. A key with diagnostic illustrations is provided to aid in identification of the eleven species common in the ...

European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) as a Functional Keystone Species Shaping Woodland Flora in the UK
Ash trees have distinct ecological attributes—their canopy allows a high level of light to penetrate and their foliage decomposes rapidly. Here we used woodland survey data to explore if the prevalence of ash trees has an impact on associated plant communities at a fine spatial scale.
