Sexual reproduction in invasive Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) in south Sweden

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
To understand the potential for northward expansion of knotweeds into currently uninvaded regions, it is crucial to assess the potential for sexual reproduction alongside the ongoing vegetative spread. For that reason, we tested viability in Reynoutria japonica seeds in south Sweden, a region where viable seeds had not been previously reported ...

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Hyperspectral signatures reveal hidden stress in soybean caused by residual nicosulfuron

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Residual nicosulfuron in soil triggers a distinct injury–regulation–collapse trajectory in soybean. Multimodal phenotyping combining hyperspectral, UV‐MCF, and chlorophyll fluorescence imaging enables early, non‐invasive detection and dynamic monitoring of latent herbicide stress, offering a mechanistic basis for risk assessment in crop rotation ...

Different from the start: key dimensions of seedling traits of central European temperate grassland species

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Plant traits and their tradeoffs are major determinants of plant functions. Although trait‐based frameworks should apply to plant functioning at any life stage, they have been primarily established for adult plants. Therefore, we lack comprehensive trait‐based studies of seedlings across multiple species to prove which key dimensions of trait variation

Precision planter monitoring system based on mobile communication network

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Sowing is an important link in agricultural production and the basis for ensuring high yields and bumper harvests. Agriculture requires precision plows with good performance and stable work. However, the seeding process is in a completely closed state, and the operator relies mainly on experience to judge the operating state and performance of

Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.
