Economic evaluation of a weed-activated sprayer for herbicide application to patchy weed populations [PDF]

open access: yes
Spatial distribution of weeds in a crop is patchy. Traditional boom sprayers waste herbicide by applying it to areas where weed density is already low.

Phytochemical composition and cultivar‐dependent variation in colored lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and their α‐amylase inhibitory activity

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study investigated cultivar‐dependent variation in the phytochemical composition of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) profiling and high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) quantification, with a focus on enzyme inhibitory activity. RESULTS Significant differences were

Identification and quality characterization of a putative novel 17x + 8y high‐molecular‐weight glutenin subunit recombination in bread wheat

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND High‐molecular‐weight glutenin subunits (HMW‐GSs) are major determinants of dough rheological behavior and bread‐making quality in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Among wheat genomes, the Glu‐B1 locus exhibits the highest allelic diversity; however, recombination events between x‐ and y‐type HMW‐GS genes are considered extremely

Northern bobwhites associated with native grass and shrubs have improved survival

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Survival rates of adult northern bobwhites were improved by a combination of grazed native warm‐season grasses and well‐interspersed shrubs. Our study suggests that incorporating native warm‐season grass cattle forages into existing operations across the southeastern United States may be a viable working‐lands conservation strategy to create habitat ...

Plant Trait‐ and Soil‐Mediated Responses of Herbaceous Aboveground Biomass Across Community Types Along a Degradation Gradient in the Desert Steppe

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grassland degradation profoundly alters the structure and function of desert steppe ecosystems. However, the responses of herbaceous aboveground biomass (Herb‐AGB) to degradation across different plant community types and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.
