Field‐based evidence of impaired sperm quality associated with conventional farming in two passerine birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The detrimental effects of conventional farming on bird biodiversity are increasingly documented. Despite this, the specific impacts of both organic and conventional farming practices on bird coloration and sperm quality in natural settings remain unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether these farming practices differentially affect body mass,

Nitrogen transfer between clover and wheat in an intercropping experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A novel approach to the problem of improving nitrogen supply in organic farming is to use intercropping of cereals with a legume to provide nitrogen transfer within a season and/or to following crops. The affects of intercropping were studied in a column

Locating nests of endangered bumble bees: Lessons from field trials in northern Germany

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Tracking bumble bees to find their nests using coloured strips of paper stuck to their thorax proved to be the most suitable method, while radio transponders were too heavy. Tracking times of up to 2 h and distances of up to 800 m were achieved with strips of pink craft tissue paper.

Yield, forage quality, residue nitrogen and nitrogen fixation of different forage legumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Fixed nitrogen accumulated by legumes is the main nitrogen source for organic farming systems. Knowledge about the amount of fixed nitrogen, its pathways into forage yield, crop residues, soil-N and yield formation of the following crop is needed for ...

Red clover silage - Feeding value of red clover silage for cattle

open access: yes, 2022
The nitrogen-fixing capability of red clover means that it can produce high yields of highprotein forage without nitrogen fertiliser. The feeding value of red clover silage depends on its combined effects on feed intake and diet digestibility. Traditional feed evaluation assessments indicate that red clover has some disadvantages due to its lower ...

Natural‐based antioxidants in cosmeceuticals: Extraction, bioavailability and skin ageing applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Natural antioxidants from plants, fruits, seeds and fungi combat ageing by neutralizing free radicals, boosting collagen and protecting against UV damage. Enhanced by green extraction and smart delivery systems, they offer powerful anti‐inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits.

Input of nitrogen from N2 fixation to northern grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Forage legumes form N2-fixing symbioses with rhizobia and may thus make substantial contributions to the N pool in grasslands. However, to optimize their use as sources of N, it is important to elucidate the effects of management factors that influence ...

Red clover for silage: management impacts on herbage yield, nuitritive value, ensilability and persistence, and relativity to perennial ryegrass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This six year experiment quantified the impacts of management factors on red clover yield, persistence, nutritive value and ensilability, and compared these to perennial ryegrass receiving inorganic N fertiliser. Within a randomised complete block design,

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus Reprogrammes Host Glycolysis to Facilitate Proliferation by a Phase‐Separated Co‐Aggregate of Nucleocapsid Protein and Phosphoglycerate Kinase

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient viral proliferation within the host is a critical step in pathogenicity and requires adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The replication, movement and immune evasion of many plant viruses within their hosts are associated with phase separation (PS)‐derived aggregates formed by viral components.
