Climate‐Smart Destination Marketing and Community‐Based Tourism for Socio‐Economic Revitalization in Degraded Landscapes

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the global tourism industry confronts the existential imperatives of the Anthropocene, the remediation of degraded landscapes through regenerative economic models has emerged as a critical frontier in sustainability science. This research presents a rigorous empirical examination of the “restoration–revenue” paradigm, investigating the ...

Optimizing Rice Yield and Heat Stress Resilience Through Nitrogen Top Dressing Before Panicle Emergence

open access: yesNitrogen
The increased frequency of extreme heat stress events due to climate change is adversely impacting rice yield. Nitrogen (N) is an essential element in the synthesis of chlorophyll in rice, contributing substantially to the achievement of spikelet ...

Taxonomic revision of the genus Tzveleviochloa (Poaceae, Aveninae) in India

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The taxonomy of Tzveleviochloa in India is revised based on morphological evidence, comprehensive observations of herbarium specimens and field records, and several botanical explorations in the study area. The accepted diversity is increased from two to five species, including two recently described species. The genus is distributed in the Western and

Extensive phenotyping and genome‐wide analysis of grain number‐related traits in a diverse wheat core collection

open access: yesThe Plant Genome
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important staple crops globally. Grain number per spikelet (GPS) is an important yield component in wheat. It is influenced by floret number per spikelet (FPS) and floret fertility.

Leaf micromorphology and genetic diversity analysis of Iranian Hordeum species using ISSR and SCoT markers

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The genus Hordeum (Poaceae), of the tribe Triticeae, comprises approximately 32 species with substantial potential for barley improvement. Hordeum vulgare is an economically important cereal widely cultivated across diverse environments, from the Arctic to desert and humid regions.

Unleashing floret fertility in wheat through the mutation of a homeobox gene [PDF]

open access: yes
Floret fertility is a key determinant of the number of grains per inflorescence in cereals. During the evolution of wheat (Triticum sp.), floret fertility has increased, such that current bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivars set three to five grains

Dissecting the Genetic Basis of Lateral and Central Spikelet Development and Grain Traits in Intermedium-Spike Barley (Hordeum vulgare Convar. Intermedium)

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the major grain crops worldwide and considered as a model plant for temperate cereals. One of the barley row-type groups, named intermedium-barley, was used in our previous study where we reported that other genetic ...

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

Different demographic drivers of recovery in two adjacent populations of a long‐lived bird of prey

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding the demographic mechanisms underlying population decline or recovery is critical for conservation and management, yet similar population trends may arise from very different underlying processes. Comparing populations of vulnerable species groups like long‐lived raptors in different environments can reveal how species respond to change ...
