Can potato cropping be made regenerative? Cover crops and dead organic mulch support soil microbial activityNARA Subscribed
To address the decline in soil organic matter and thus soil life and soil health due to intensive tillage in organic potato production, innovative regenerative farming approaches employ cover crops and transferred dead organic mulch to improve plant nutrition, minimize soil disturbance, and foster soil microbial activity. Starting in 2019 to 2021, three organic two-year field experiments were set up in a field that had been co...
Global maps of soil temperatureNARA Subscribed
Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation canopies and near the ground surface, where critical ecosystem functions occur and most terrestrial species reside. Here, we provide global maps of soil temperature and bioclimatic variables at a 1‐km 2 r...
Genome-wide association study reveals white lupin candidate gene involved in anthracnose resistanceNARA Subscribed
Key message GWAS identifies candidate gene controlling resistance to anthracnose disease in white lupin. Abstract White lupin ( Lupinus albus L.) is a promising grain legume to meet the growing demand for plant-based protein. Its cultivation, however, is severely threatened by anthracnose disease caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum lupini . To dissect the genetic architecture for anthracnose resistance, genotyping by...
sPlotOpen – An environmentally balanced, open‐access, global dataset of vegetation plotsNARA Subscribed
Motivation Assessing biodiversity status and trends in plant communities is critical for understanding, quantifying and predicting the effects of global change on ecosystems. Vegetation plots record the occurrence or abundance of all plant species co‐occurring within delimited local areas. This allows species absences to be inferred, information seldom provided by existing global plant datasets. Although many vegetation plots...
