Irrigation-Advisor—A Decision Support System for Irrigation of Vegetable Crops by Miras-Ávalos, José M., Rubio-Asensio, José S., Ramírez-Cuesta, Juan M., Maestre-Valero, José F., Intrigliolo, Diego S.

“…Crop water needs underestimations (5%–20%) were detected when comparing IA against ETcFAO, although the index of agreement proved reasonable adjustments. The IA recommendations led to water savings up to 13% when compared to F, except for lettuce, with a 31% surplus in irrigation when using IA. …”

Internal mechanisms of plant adaptation to aluminum toxicity and phosphorus starvation in three tropical forages by Watanabe, Toshihiro, Osaki, Mitsuru, Yano, Hiromi, Rao, Idupulapati M.

“…The tropical grasses tolerated high levels of Al toxicity and P starvation, with the Brachiaria hybrid maintaining very low levels of Al concentration in shoots. 27Al Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (NMR) analysis revealed that, in the Brachiaria hybrid, Al makes complexes with some ligands such as organic-acid anions in the root symplast. …”

Exploring the biochemical, technical and applicative characteristics of pullulan produced by different strains of Aureobasidium pullulans by Cignola, Rudy, Palou, Lluís, Pérez-Gago, María B., Lovison, D., Di Foggia, M., Basso, F., Daniso, E., Garagozzo, L., De Marco, R., Colautti, A., Firrao, G., Di Francesco, Alessandra

“…Pullulan produced by the strains was biochemically characterized by FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) analyses. By FT-IR and DSC analysis, the AP1 pullulan displayed to be more capable to entrap moisture in its structure, and by NMR, it showed to be more similar to the commercial pullulan. …”

Mound architecture and season affect concentrations of CO2, CH4 and N2O in nests of African fungus-growing termites by Vesala, Risto, Räsänen, Matti, Leitner, Sonja, Mulat, Daniel Girma, Mwangala, Lucas, Rikkinen, Jouko, Arppe, Laura

“…These findings underline that among fungus‐growing termites, mound size, ventilation type and precipitation affect nest gas concentrations and with this likely the magnitude of mound GHG emissions. Potential reasons behind the observed relationships are discussed, including differences in population size, biomass of fungus gardens and CH4 oxidation.Termites are a significant natural source of greenhouse gases (GHGs), but quantifying emissions especially from large termite mounds is problematic as they rarely fit in measurement chambers. …”
