ABSTRACT Background Urban trees provide essential ecosystem services, but their growth and longevity are often limited by soil compaction. Although pneumatic lance injection (PLI) is increasingly promoted as a minimally invasive and efficient soil loosening technique, but robust scientific evidence for its long‐term effectiveness remains limited.

Spatial uncertainty assessment in modelling reference evapotranspiration at regional scale
. Evapotranspiration is one of the major components of the water balance and has been identified as a key factor in hydrological modelling. For this reason, several methods have been developed to calculate the reference evapotranspiration (ET0).

The inclusion of sulphur at two inorganic nitrogen rates (0 and 150 kg N ha−1) improves plant productivity in a ryegrass–white clover sward and reduces nitrate‐N loss to groundwater in a free‐draining sandy loam soil. ABSTRACT Background Reducing nitrogen (N) losses to water, lessening reliance on inorganic fertiliser and maintaining agricultural ...

Abstract Objectives Our aim was to study the association between residential land cover and greenness during childhood and risk of developing celiac disease (CeD). Methods The Celiac Prediction in Skåne study prospectively followed 5969 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)‐genotyped children born 2001–2004 who were screened for CeD at ages 3, 9, and 15 years ...

The water requirement and crop evapotranspiration (ETc)is determined using reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and crop-coefficient (kc). Numerous models are available for estimation of ET0,among which Penman-Monteith (FAO-56) model is considered to be ...

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...
