The intensity and frequency of precipitation events are predicted to change over the coming decades. For many areas, longer periods without rainfall are expected. We investigated the importance of irrigation frequency under water deficit conditions for growth, physiology and chemistry of wheat (<...

We used time-resolved metabolic footprinting, an important technical approach used to monitor changes in extracellular compound concentrations during microbial growth, to study the order of substrate utilization (i.e., substrate preferences) and kinetics of a fast-growing soil isolate, Parabu...

The increasing cost of conventional feedstuffs has bolstered interest in genetic selection for digestive efficiency (DE), a component of feed efficiency, assessed by apparent metabolisable energy corrected to zero nitrogen retention (AMEn). However, its measurement is time-consuming and constraining...

Soil contamination with heavy metals, particularly lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), has become a growing environmental concern due to rapid industrialization. Salix matsudana, a woody energy plant with notable tolerance to heavy metals, exhibits considerable potential for use in phytoremediation...

Oryza sativa cv. Nipponbare was engineered to over-express a barley alanine aminotransferase (alaAT) gene using the promoter (OsANT1) from a rice aldehyde dehydrogenase gene that expresses in roots. We are using biotechnology to improve the nitrogen use efficiency of rice by over-expressing alaAT in...

Integrated breeding strategies are used to increase both the yield potential and stability of crops. Most of these approaches have a direct genetic basis. The utility of epigenetics in breeding to improve complex traits such as yield and stress tolerance is not clear. A better understanding of th...
