Efficacy of Drying Maize Seeds Using Zeolite Beads Under Hermetic Storage Conditions
Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sun drying of seeds prior to storage is a common practice in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), but this method is unpredictable, especially during rainy seasons. Seed longevity and survival in storage depend on seed moisture content (MC); hence, controlling MC in storage is essential.

Arabidopsis AUGMIN8 Contains Two Independent Microtubule Association Domains
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant cells create a plasma membrane‐associated network of microtubules that are nucleated by γ‐tubulin ring complexes primarily through microtubule‐dependent microtubule nucleation (MDMN). This dynamic array organizes into specific patterns in response to developmental and environmental cues to influence primary cell wall construction.

Design and evaluation of a one-operation shallow up-cut tillage sowing method for soybean production
Plant Production Science, 2019 Sowing using a rotary tiller rotating in reverse (up-cut) is a labor-saving technology for soybean production because it can perform tillage and sowing, make ridges, and bury winter crop residues in one operation. However, the power requirement of up-cut

Soil nitrate N as influenced by annually undersown cover crops in spring cereals [PDF]
, 2003 Cover crops can reduce leaching and erosion, introduce variability into crop rotations and fix nitrogen (N) for use by the main crops. In Finland, undersowing is a suitable method for establishing cover crops in cereals.
