Abstract Diversity‐Interactions (DI) modelling is a regression‐based approach used for modelling the biodiversity and ecosystem function (BEF) relationship. This methodology assesses the effects of manipulating (initial) species richness, composition (species identities) and species proportions on ecosystem function responses measured at a later point ...

Draft genome sequence of subterranean clover, a reference for genus Trifolium
Clovers (genus Trifolium) are widely cultivated across the world as forage legumes and make a large contribution to livestock feed production and soil improvement. Subterranean clover (T. subterraneum L.) is well suited for genomic and genetic studies as

RNA‐Seq analysis revealed differentially expressed genes linked to seed size variation in sainfoin
Abstract Sainfoin is a perennial forage legume with many desirable characteristics such as easy to establish, bloat‐free trait for grazing ruminants and providing pollinator habitat and biological nitrogen fixation to soil. However, adoption of this species is often hindered by high seed cost associated with its larger seed size compared to other ...
