Role of the interaction space in shaping innovation for sustainable agriculture: Empirical insights from African case studies by Hermans, T.D.G., Smith, H.E., Whitfield, S., Sallu, S.M., Recha, John W.M., Dougill, Andrew J., Thierfelder, Christian L., Gama, M., Bunderson, W.T., Museka, R., Doggart, N., Meshack, C.

“…This study conceptualises agricultural development interventions as taking place within an interaction space between researchers and farmers. Unpacking the processes and dynamics of the interaction space from four case studies across Malawi and mainland Tanzania, we present findings which evaluate: 1) how agricultural innovation takes place in the context of funded agricultural development projects, and 2) how space for technical and social knowledge construction can be opened up or closed down in these contexts. …”

Closer vein spacing by ectopic expression of nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat proteins in rice leaves by Lo, Shuen-Fang, Chatterjee, Jolly, Biswal, Akshaya K., Liu, I.-Lun, Chang, Yu-Pei, Chen, Pei-Jing, Wanchana, Samart, Elmido-Mabilangan, Abigail, Nepomuceno, Robert A., Bandyopadhyay, Anindya, Hsing, Yue-ie, Quick, William Paul

“…Elevated expression of nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat proteins led to closer vein spacing and higher vein density in rice leaves.To feed the growing global population and mitigate the negative effects of climate change, there is a need to improve the photosynthetic capacity and efficiency of major crops such as rice to enhance grain yield potential. …”

Effect of interrow spacing and weeding frequency on the performance of selected rice cultivals on hydromorphic soils of West Africa by Akobundu, I., Ahissou, A.

“…Weed weight decreased significantly as the interrow spacing was decreased from 45 cm to 15 cm. Tillering and the number of rice panicles also decreased with reduction in interrow spacing. …”

Initial spacing of teak (Tectona grandis) in northern Lao PDR: Impacts on the growth of teak and companion crops by Pachas, Anibal Nahuel Alejandro, Sakanphet, Somphanh, Soukkhy, Outhai, Lao, Maichor, Savathvong, Sianouvong, Newby, Jonathan Craig, Souliyasackc, Bounkieng, Keoboualapha,Bounthanh, Dieters, Mark J.

“…Companion cropping demonstrated that modest yields of maize, cassava and pigeon pea are possible under established teak, where the spacing between trees exceeds 8 m. Both maize and cassava achieved yields of over 2 t ha−1 with a spacing of 8 m between trees, while pigeon pea achieved 3 t ha−1 at 10 m spacing between trees. …”

Genetic structure and ecological niche space of lentil's closest wild relative, Lens orientalis (Boiss.) Schmalh. by Guerra-García, Azalea, Trněný, Oldřich, Brus, Jan, Renzi Pugni, Juan Pablo, Kumar, Shiv, Bariotakis, Michael, Coyne, Clarice, Chitikineni, Anu, Bett, Kirstin E., Varshney, Rajeev, Pirintsos, Stergios, Berger, Jens, von Wettberg, Eric J.B., Smýkal, Petr

“…Although an environmental distance matrix was significantly correlated with geographic distance in a Mantel test, the four identified genetic clusters were not found to occupy significantly different environmental space. Maxent modelling gave a distinct predicted distribution pattern centred in the Fertile Crescent, with intermediate probabilities of occurrence in parts of Turkey, Greece, Cyprus, Morocco, and the south of the Iberian Peninsula with NW Africa. …”
