Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

Decadal water balance of a temperate Scots pine forest (Pinus sylvestris L.) based on measurements and modelling [PDF]

, 2010
We examined the water balance components of an 80-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) forest stand in the Campine region of Belgium over a ten year period using five very different approaches; our methods ranged from data intensive measurements to ...

Preharvest application of antagonistic yeasts for the control of fungal pathogens in organic peach and plum orchards

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The control of fungal diseases in organic fruit production remains a major challenge due to the limited availability of authorized phytosanitary tools. This study evaluates the efficacy of two antagonistic yeasts – Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 and Hanseniaspora uvarum L793 – in organic peach (Prunus persica) and plum (Prunus ...

Forest Stand Structure and Primary Production in relation to Ecosystem Development, Disturbance, and Canopy Composition [PDF]

, 2016
Temperate forests are complex ecosystems that sequester carbon (C) in biomass. C storage is related to ecosystem-scale forest structure, changing over succession, disturbance, and with community composition.

Nutritional and reproductive dynamics of moose near their southern range limit

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Though southern moose (Alces alces) had relatively low seasonal fluctuations in body fat, their condition was positively associated with pregnancy and adult survival but did not influence recruitment of young. We demonstrated clear signs of nutritional limitation and unexpected patterns of reproductive performance that may be unique to moose living at ...

Spatial and temporal variation in survival of female wild turkeys

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We monitored 370 female wild turkeys across North Carolina's 3 ecoregions from 2020‐2022 to understand factors influencing their survival. Female survival varied by ecoregion and behavior state, with the incubation period having the lowest survival rates. None of the land cover variables affected survival.

Precision Restoration to Minimize Soil Loss in a Watershed in the Atlantic Forest Domain

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Turvo River Watershed, located in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais and part of the Doce River Basin, faces serious problems of erosion and soil degradation, which compromise and reduce the quality of local water resources. Given this scenario, it is essential to implement environmental recovery strategies that prioritize the ...
