Assessment of Soils along the Toposequence of Tsokundi River in Wukari LGA, Taraba State, Northeastern Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Soil Science
Soils along the Toposequence of Tsokundi River in Wukari LGA of Taraba State, Nigeria were studied with the aim of characterizing them for sustainable crop production. Three soil units (Upper, Middle and Lower slopes) were identified in the area.

NLSS3 Impairs SHM1 Autophagic Degradation to Regulate Leaf Morphology and Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In rice, NLSS3 binds and shields SHM1 from autophagic degradation to maintain serine homeostasis. The A132P mutation in nlss3 disrupts this, triggering SHM1 loss, metabolic dysfunction, K+ imbalance, and impaired ROS scavenging, which collectively drive narrow leaves and salt sensitivity.

"New Zealand Soil Classification” by A.E. Hewitt [Book review]

open access: yes, 1992
The publication of `New Zealand Soil Classification' by Dr Alan Hewitt this year (Hewitt 1992a) represents a major milestone in New Zealand soil science. That it was one of the final publications of the now defunct DSIR is somehow appropriate because, as

Water-repellent soil and its relationship to granularity, surface roughness and hydrophobicity: a materials science view [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Considerable soil water repellency has been observed at a wide range of locations worldwide. The soil exhibiting water repellency is found within the upper part of the soil profile.

Soil classification and prediction model for critical land on the slopes of Mount Raung in Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management
Indonesia is in the ring of fire, which has an impact on the characteristics of volcanoes, one of which is Mount Raung. Mount Raung, part of the Iyang-Argopura mountains, has a role in influencing the development of soil types and the environment; it was

Extra Climate Benefits From Afforestation Due to Reduced Forest Fragmentation in China

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Afforestation in China reduced forest fragmentation in 2015, transforming 51.8 M ha of edge forests into interior forests. This enhanced carbon sequestration (1.4±0.2 Pg CO2e, a cooling biogeochemical effect), while reduced albedo (−0.9 Pg CO2e, a warming biophysical effect) partially offset the gain, yielding a net extra climate benefit of ...

Land capability classification for non-rice crops in Cambodia

open access: yes, 2005
Land capability needs to be assessed for a range of crops in specific agro-ecosystems of Cambodia to support moves to diversify crop production from the present heavy reliance on rice.

Soil Classification Maps for the Lower Tagus Valley Area, Portugal, Using Seismic, Geological, and Remote Sensing Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The Lower Tagus Valley (LTV) region has the highest population density in Portugal, with over 3.7 million people living in the region. It has been struck in the past by several historical earthquakes, which caused significant economic and human losses ...

Histone Modification Complex JMJ704‐HDA709 Negatively Regulates Salinity Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the rice histone demethylase JMJ704 interacts with HDA709―a H3K9ac deacetylase characterized herein―to form a chromatin‐modifying complex. Under salt stress, OsWRKY72 recruits this complex through interaction with JMJ704 to target loci, repressing the expression of oxidative stress and salt‐responsive genes via removal of ...

Rational descriptive classification of duricrusts

open access: yes, 1969
The term duricrust appears to be extending itself to include calcareous, gypseous, and saline crusts, in addition to crusts composed dominantly of silica and/or of sesquioxides of iron and aluminium, with or without significant contents of dioxides of ...
