Vegetation, Water Infiltration, and Soil Carbon Responses to Adaptive Multi‐Paddock and Conventional Grazing in Northern Great Plains, USA, Ranches

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Adaptive Multi‐Paddock (AMP) grazing involves alternating short‐duration, high‐intensity grazing with extended recovery periods. It offers the potential to regenerate degraded rangelands while enhancing productivity. We compared vegetation, soil carbon, and water infiltration responses between nine matched pairs of ranches in North and South ...

Drivers of Intraspecific Trait Variation and Drought Response of a Dominant US Great Plains Grass: Disentangling the Role of Climate and Genetic Background

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study explores how climate and genetics drive intraspecific trait variation (ITV) and drought responses in Andropogon gerardi, a dominant grass shaping North American prairies. We found that precipitation strongly predicts genetically based trait differentiation, with dry‐origin populations showing drought resilience and wet‐origin populations ...

Can Biostimulants and Phytohormones Improve Early Growth, Biomass Allocation, and Photosynthesis in Miscanthus Plug Plants?

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Application of biostimulants and phytohormones enhanced Miscanthus plug growth by increasing height, biomass, and photosynthetic efficiency. Treatments such as Liquid Ice and IAA improved early vigor and resource allocation, offering a scalable strategy to strengthen establishment and accelerate the deployment of Miscanthus for sustainable bioenergy ...

Preliminary results of micropagation of vegetative rootstock for plum and apricot wavit

, 2023
Currently, when growing seedlings of stone fruit crops, different types of rootstocks are used, which affect the strength of the growth of trees in the future garden, their productivity and resistance to many adverse environmental factors. All this allows one to optimally plan the efficiency and criteria for establishing plantings. Wavit is a promising,

Winter treatments against the woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum): products and timing of applications [PDF]

, 2008
In organic apple growing the woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum) is still an unsolved problem. Various approaches to use beneficial insects were not really effective. Only winter treatments with mineral oils showed partial and fluctuating success.

Improving Peach Fruit Yield and Quality Using Foliar Application of Nano Chelated Zinc and Seaweed Extract (Spirulina platensis): A Multivariate Analysis Approach

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
The combined application of nano‐zinc and Spirulina extract enhances peach yield, fruit firmness, and nutritional quality. An optimal treatment significantly improves fruit set (+107.5%), TSS, and vitamin C content. ABSTRACT The twenty‐seven identical peach trees were exposed to different levels of a Nano Chelated fertilizer contain 12% Zn and ...

Time tells: plasticity and developmental asynchrony underlie trait variation in a dune‐building grass

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Habitat‐modifying plants engineer landscapes through plant‐environment feedbacks. The strength of these feedbacks is determined by above‐ and below‐ground traits shaping landscape morphology. Besides interspecific differences, recent findings highlight that intraspecific trait variation, such as shoot density, can also influence landscape morphology ...

Irrigation using slightly saline water from emerging desalination technologies as a solution to short‐term drought

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 831-842, May 2026.
With global weather patterns becoming more extreme and unpredictable, sourcing reliable irrigation water is vital for improving food security and conserving drinking water in drought‐prone areas. Emerging desalination technologies, which are still in the development phase, could potentially provide large quantities of slightly saline water for ...
