Macro-micro feedback links of water management in South Africa: CGE analyses of selected policy regimes by Hassan, Rashid, Thurlow, James

“…The analyses reveal that implicit crop-level water quotas reduce the amount of irrigated land allocated to higher-value horticultural crops and create higher shadow rents for production of lower-value water-intensive field crops, such as sugarcane and fodder. Accordingly, liberalizing local water allocation within irrigation agriculture is found to work in favor of higher-value crops, and expand agricultural production and exports and farm employment. …”

Transcriptional response of rice flag leaves to restricted external phosphorus supply during grain filling in rice cv. IR64 by Jeong, Kwanho, Pantoja, Omar, Baten, Abdul, Waters, Daniel, Kretzschmar, Tobias, Wissuwa, Matthias, Julia, Cecile C., Heuer, Sigrid, Rose, Terry J.

“…In contrast, at 16 DAA carbon substrates were produced by degradation of structural polysaccharides and over 50% of highly upregulated genes in P-deprived plants were associated with protein degradation and nitrogen/amino acid transport, suggesting withdrawal of P from the nutrient solution led to accelerated senescence. Genes involved in liberating inorganic P from the organic P compounds and vacuolar P transporters displayed differential expression depending on the stage of grain filling stage and timing of P withdrawal…”
