Mechanical Chiseling Versus Root Bio-Tillage on Soil Physical Quality and Soybean Yield in a Long-Term No-Till System

Agronomy
Occasional mechanical intervention can help alleviate compaction symptoms in no-till systems, but its effects compared to well-established crop rotation systems are uncertain.

Epidemiological Insights Into Water and Soil‐Mediated Transmission of Tomato Mottle Mosaic Virus

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Water and growing substrate can serve as reservoirs for tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) inoculum. ToMMV can survive in water for up to 27 weeks. ToMMV infects bait plants through roots within 5–17 weeks, depending on the severity of root damage. A rapid, field‐deployable RPA test—requiring no RNA extraction—offers sensitivity comparable to RT‐qPCR ...

Detection of 16Sr IX phytoplasma (HLB phytoplasma) in Sunn Hemp (Crotalaria juncea) in São Paulo State, Brazil [PDF]

, 2014
In São Paulo State, besides the occurrence of Candidatus Liberibacter americanus and Ca. L. asiaticus, a 16Sr IX group phytoplasma was associated with HLB symptoms, indistinguishable from those caused by liberibacters.

Fabrication and Characterization of Epoxy Composite Material Reinforced With Natural Fibers

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The primary goals of the current study are to create and assess epoxy composites reinforced with three different natural fibers. A compression molding approach was used to manufacture the composite, which consisted of 45 wt% natural fibers and 55 wt% epoxy resins with hardener.

Thermodynamic properties for different equilibrium moisture content in sunn hemp seeds

, 2018
: Losses of agroindustry are generally wet products that must be dried to posterior use and storage. In order to optimize drying processes, the study of isotherms and thermodynamic properties become essential to understand the water sorption mechanisms ...

Grazing and cover crop effects on soil health during transition to organic production

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The authors studied the efficacy of six objective‐based, reduced tillage cover cropping systems with or without livestock grazing to induce changes in soil condition and soil health on a fine sandy loam during the organic transition phase in the northern Great Plains.

Cover crops and nitrogen doses in wheat under no-tillage system

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2013
The application of conservation practices in production systems is essential to the sustainability of the agricultural production capacity. The use of different cover crops can reduce the need of topdressing nitrogen fertilizers in wheat crops.

Sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea L.) as a Cover Crop for Winter Wheat [PDF]

, 2015
The use of cover crops in conjunction with non-inversion tillage is a popular conservation system that is incorporated into production rotations to improve profitability and sustainability of depleted soils in the Southeast.

Carbon and nitrogen release from cover crop roots is poorly predicted by their chemical composition

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Root‐derived carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) release in relation to chemical composition has rarely been quantified in field studies. The objectives of this study were to evaluate C and N release from six summer cover crop roots and to correlate it with their chemical composition. Root decomposition and N release from velvet bean (Mucuna aterrima),
