Crop Water Productivity, Applied Water Productivity and Economic Decision Making

Water, 2022
Increasing productive water use in agriculture is seen as paramount to meet future food demand with limited water supplies. The main objective of this paper is to gain a better understanding of the interrelated linkages between crop water productivity (CWP) and applied water productivity (AWP) as affected by irrigation management decisions in order to ...

Optimization of water productivity in Bhagwanpur distributary command of India employing TLBO and cuckoo search algorithms

Water Policy, 2021
Efficient and judicious use of land and water is the need of the hour. In other words, evolving a cropping pattern, which optimizes productivity or net return considering prevailing constraints is quite useful to farmers, because such a cropping pattern ...

Water Productivity in Agriculture: Looking for Water in the Agricultural Productivity and Efficiency Literature [PDF]

Water Economics and Policy, 2016
Expectations are that the agricultural sector will have to expand the use of water for irrigation to meet rising food demand, while at the same time the competition for water resources is growing in many regions. Increasing water productivity in agriculture is widely seen as a critical response to help address this challenge.

Nitric Oxide Increases the Physiological and Biochemical Stability of Soybean Plants under High Temperature

Agronomy, 2019
Thermal stress reduces plant growth and development, resulting in considerable economic losses in crops such as soybeans. Nitric oxide (NO) in plants is associated with tolerance to various abiotic stresses.

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Determination of Applied Water and Water Productivity in Barley Production in Iran

مجله آب و خاک, 2023
Introduction The basic strategy to mitigate water crisis is to save agricultural water consumption by increasing productivity, which will result in more income for farmers and sustainable production. Due to the economic importance of barley production in the country, it is necessary to study the volume of irrigation water and water productivity to ...
