Few resistance loci to soybean rust (SBR), caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi Syd., have been genetically mapped and linked to molecular markers that can be used for marker assisted selection. New ...
Nighttime temperature is one of the major environmental factors influencing plant metabolic processes. The respiration rates, membrane thermal stability (MTS), and total antioxidant capacities of ...

Conservation of soil water resulting from decreases in stomata conductance under atmospheric high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) conditions is a possible approach for enhanced tolerance of water ...
Epidermal conductance (g.min) is a measurement of water loss through the cuticle and stomata when stomatal conductance is minimal. Two pot experiments were conducted to evaluate genotypic variation ...

Wear tolerance is important in sports turf, but the effects of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) on wear mechanisms in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) are unknown. The objective of this study was ...
Improved cool-season grass cultivars may add production potential to ruminant enterprises across the North–South transition zone. Quality among hays of ‘MaxQ’ (‘Jesup’ with novel endophyte), HM4 ...
