Seedling Germination: Seedlings Follow Sunshine and Fresh Air [PDF]
The journey from seedling to plant requires guidance in the dark to establish which directions the roots and shoots should grow. A new study shows that, after germinating in darkness, plant seedlings sense the oxygen content of the surrounding airspace to guide further development.

Salinity is one of the most important abiotic stresses that negatively affects plant growth and development around the world. It has been reported that approximately 19.5% of all irrigated land and 2.1% of dry land is affected by salt stress, and these ...

Abstract Developing countries, especially those in hot and dry areas, need more attention to achieve sustainable development as they apply excessive inputs in production processes. The present study aims to quantify the amount of environmental emissions and determine the most appropriate pattern of energy use in the date (Phoenix dactylifera L ...

Maize–soybean intercropping: A bibliometric analysis of 30 years of research publications
Abstract Maize (Zea may L.)–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] intercropping is popular in many countries because of its high productivity. However, no studies have explored maize–soybean intercropping via bibliometric methods. Taking the Web of Science database, the visualization applications of CiteSpace and VOSviewer were used to visually analyze the ...

Seedling traits predict drought-induced mortality linked to diversity loss
Significance Tremendous effort is being devoted to developing large databases of plant traits, with the hope that these constitute a species-independent currency for predicting the nature and consequences of changes to plant communities driven by climate

Downy mildew resistance and genetic variability in a wild rocket germplasm collection
Abstract One hundred accessions of a “core collection” of Diplotaxis tenuifolia (L.) DC. and Eruca spp. were screened at seedling stage for resistance to downy mildew. Accessions tested at the seedling stage were assigned to 0–6 interaction phenotypes.

Replacing fallow with field pea in wheat production systems across western Nebraska
Abstract Integration of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) (FP) into dryland cropping systems has increased due to ecological and economic benefits, paired with a growing market for pea‐derived products. Challenges exist in the High Plains that limit the integration of crop rotations to replace fallow periods with FP in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)‐based ...
