Arabidopsis HEAT SHOCK TRANSCRIPTION FACTORA1b overexpression enhances water productivity, resistance to drought, and infection [PDF]

, 2013
Heat-stressed crops suffer dehydration, depressed growth, and a consequent decline in water productivity, which is the yield of harvestable product as a function of lifetime water consumption and is a trait associated with plant growth and development ...

A comprehensive evaluation of ecological isolation zones based on grey fixed-weight clustering [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Soil erosion is one of the common disasters in the red soil areas of the mountain plains, and the setting up of ecological isolation zone terraces has become a measure for the integrated management of soil erosion in farming areas.

Growth, yield and water productivity of dry direct seeded rice and transplanted aromatic rice under different irrigation management regimes

, 2020
Sustainability of traditionally cultivated rice in the rice-wheat cropping zone (RWCZ) of Pakistan is dwindling due to the high cost of production, declining water resources and escalating labour availability.

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.

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 Harvesting and Supplemental Irrigation for Improved Water Productivity of Dry Farming Systems in West Asia and North Africa

, 2023
In the dry areas, water, not land, is the most limiting resource for improved agricultural production. Maximizing water productivity, and not yield per unit of land, is therefore a better strategy for dry farming systems.

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 ...
