Comparative ecology of chasmogamous and cleistogamous reproduction in Danthonia compressa: effects of floral type and maternal environment

open access: yesBotany, 2022
The significance of maternal and progeny environment to chasmogamy (CH) and cleistogamy (CL) in perennial plants is not well known. The perennial grass Danthonia compressa produces CH spikelets capable of outcrossing on terminal panicles in summer ...

OsWRKY74, a WRKY transcription factor, modulates tolerance to phosphate starvation in rice

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Highlight The WRKY transcription factor family in rice is functionally diverse. We demonstrate that WRKY74 overexpression enhances growth, increases tiller number, grain weight and phosphorus concentration under phosphate-deprived conditions in rice.

Enhancing Binding by Electron Transfer at Heterointerfaces of Biochar‐Modified Hydrogel to Improve Utilization Efficiency of Wastewater Recovered Nutrients

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Enhancing the utilization efficiency of nutrients recovered from wastewater is achieved through hydrogel modification by biochar. The strategy improves nutrient binding to hydrogels via electron transfer at heterointerfaces, thereby reducing nutrient release rate.

The Complex History of the Domestication of Rice

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2007
Background Rice has been found in archaeological sites dating to 8000 bc, although the date of rice domestication is a matter of continuing debate. Two species of domesticated rice, Oryza sativa (Asian) and Oryza glaberrima (African) are grown globally ...

Examining the Impact of Row Planting on Labor Use for Sustainable Food Production Among Maize Farmers in Rural Ghana

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers are reverting to traditional production methods due to the high opportunity costs and unintended consequences of new technologies. This study focuses on row planting technology, which is labor‐intensive and slow without mechanized operations.

Economics of land‐based carbon mitigation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural land holds tremendous potential to contribute to net zero greenhouse gas emission goals by providing low carbon renewable energy to displace fossil fuels and by serving as a sink for sequestering carbon in the soil with climate‐smart practices. This potential is, however, far from being realized.

Sward and milk production response to early turnout of dairy cows to pasture in Finland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The timing of turnout is an important factor affecting the grazing management of dairy cows. However, its consequences are not well known in the short grazing season of northern Europe.

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.

Timothy and timothy mixtures as a pasture crop [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Despite the relatively low tolerance against grazing and peaked DM production, timothy can be used effiently for grazing, especially in mixtures with meadow fescue. The growth processes lead to specific management options, e.g.
