Kernel number and kernel weight stability can vary across corn hybrids

Agronomy Journal, Volume 116, Issue 5, Page 2446-2457, September/October 2024.
Abstract The stability of a trait refers to the extent to which its expression in a given genotype varies across environments. The more stable a trait, the less variable its expression. Grain yield stability is a central consideration in corn production to ensure that hybrids perform consistently across environments and is frequently quantified given ...

Weed control in corn with diflufenican plus isoxaflutole

Weed Technology
Diflufenican is a selective phenyl ether, Group 12 herbicide. Limited information exists on the weed control efficacy of diflufenican and the potential improvement in weed control when it is co-applied with isoxaflutole.

Planting time and seeding rate impact insect feeding, ear rots, and forage nutritive value in silage corn

Agronomy Journal, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 1978-1990, July/August 2024.
Abstract Planting date and seeding rate affect the microclimate within a crop field. They can influence lepidopteran insect infestation and fungal infections and are an important part of crop management strategy. Altering planting date and seeding rate can also influence yield and quality of silage corn (Zea mays L.).

Occurrence and greater intensity of estrus in recipient lactating dairy cows improve pregnancy per embryo transfer

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
: The aim of this study was to determine the association between occurrence and intensity of estrous expression with pregnancy success in recipient lactating dairy cows subjected to embryo transfer (ET). Two observational studies were conducted. Holstein

The Origin and Evolution of a Complex Cuspate Foreland: Pointe-aux-Pins, Lake Erie, Ontario [PDF]

, 1989
The origin of Pointe-aux-Pins, a large, rounded, cuspate foreland protruding from the north shore of Lake Erie, is difficult to explain by conventional spit formation processes.

The ancestral karyotype of the Heliantheae Alliance, herbicide resistance, and human allergens: Insights from the genomes of common and giant ragweed

The Plant Genome, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract Ambrosia artemisiifolia and Ambrosia trifida (Asteraceae) are important pest species and the two greatest sources of aeroallergens globally. Here, we took advantage of a hybrid to simplify genome assembly and present chromosome‐level assemblies for both species.

Performance and phenotypic stability of maize hybrids containing exotic introgressions in multi‐environment trials

Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 756-771, March/April 2024.
Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.) grown in the US Midwest contains only a small fraction of the genetic diversity present in the species. Maize populations from other parts of the world may contain genetic variation that could be used to improve or increase the diversity of US germplasm.

Seeds of Change: Corn Seed Mixtures for Resistance Management and Integrated Pest Management [PDF]

, 2011
The use of mixtures of transgenic insecticidal seed and nontransgenic seed to provide an in-field refuge for susceptible insects in insect-resistance-management (IRM) plans has been considered for at least two decades. However, the U.S.

Cover crops affect pool specific soil organic carbon in cropland – A meta‐analysis

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 75, Issue 2, March–April 2024.
Abstract Cover crops (CC) offer numerous benefits to agroecosystems, particularly in the realm of soil organic carbon (SOC) accrual and loss mitigation. However, uncertainties persist regarding the extent to which CCs, in co‐occurrence with environmental factors, influence SOC responses and associated C pools.

Long-term effects of tillage system and crop rotation on soil physical and chemical properties in a Brookston clay loam at Ridgetown, ON

, 2013
Poster presented at the Soil Science Society of America AGM 2013 In two long‐term trials at Ridgetown, the objective was to assess the impact of tillage and crop rotation on soil quality, using the Cornell Soil Health Assessment (CSHA), soil organic carbon (SOC), and total N.
