Spring wheat and durum yield and disease responses to copper fertilization of mineral soils
Copper deficiency has been linked to the incidence of a number of wheat diseases. Canadian research on mineral soils has suggested that low Cu availability, as indicated in a DTPA extraction soil test, combined with low soil organic C and coarse textures may also result in Cu deficiency of cereals. The objective of this study was to determine the yield responses of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum ...

Root-lesion Nematodes reduce yield of intolerant wheat and barley
Root-lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus neglectus and P. thornei) are widely distributed and substantially reduce grain yields in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-producing regions of the Pacific Northwest (PNW). The objective of this research was to determine if wheat and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars differ in tolerance to these nematode species. Field experiments were conducted by comparing ...

5 features to look for when selecting drone RGB sensors for phenotyping
Selecting a Drone to Meet Your phenotyping Needs: As drones have become better, less expensive, and easier to use, more researchers have been incorporating them into their trial assessment programs. The new generation of drones are bringing more capacity to assess new and previously inaccessible traits such as wheat head count, flower/fruit counting and classification, and phenological stage ...

Monitoring greenhouse gases from biofuel crops
Global issues such as climate change and energy security have driven rapid growth in renewable energy production - wind, solar, tidal, geothermal, hydro, biofuels etc. However, logically, each of these methods should deliver a net benefit in terms of greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction, so researchers in the United States have employed portable FTIR analysers to study the GHG emissions of biomass ...
