Climate factors drive the local adaptation of Old World cattle
Climate adaptation genomics of cattle. We comparatively analyzed genomic data from 85 Old World cattle breeds/populations of Eurasia and Africa to identify genetic factors associated with climate factors. Environmental genome‐wide association studies revealed 3165 single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with strong correlations between climate factors ...

This research reveals the functional stability of mixed species foraging flocks (MSF) and their foraging height change with different taxonomic differences along the elevational gradient at Knuckles Montane Reserve, Sri Lanka. This offers new insights into how MSFs sustain with the elevational gradients supporting the altitudinal shifting species ...

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the growth, forage production, soil water balance, water indices, biological efficiency and competitive capacity of forage cactus and maize in monoculture and intercropping, with or without mulch. The experiment was conducted in Serra Talhada, Pernambuco, Brazil, using the cactus clone ‘Orelha de Elefante Mexicana’ (OEM ...

Farmer‐Led Strategies for Water Conservation in the Urmia Lake Basin, Iran
ABSTRACT This study examines the urgent issues of water scarcity and limited farmer livelihoods in the Urmia Lake basin. To address these challenges, we apply the Governance, Autonomy, Integration, and Needs orientation (GAIN) methodology. Our participatory approach revealed that farmers prioritised actionable measures for water management, yield ...

Interpreting vegetation indices
Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 1991Remotely sensed spectral vegetation indices are widely used and have benefited numerous disciplines interested in the assessment of biomass, water use, plant stress, plant health and crop production. The successful use of these indices requires knowledge of the units of the input variables used to form the indices, and an understanding of the manner in

Vegetation condition indices for crop vegetation condition monitoring
2011 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2011NDVI maps have been proven valuable in providing a spatially complete view of crop's vegetation condition, which manifests disastrous events such as massive flood and drought. It is virtually impossible to obtain from ground survey data. This paper uses NASA MODIS 250m resolution, daily surface reflectance data for crop condition monitoring.
