Identification and validation of a major QTL for salt tolerance in soybean
To identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs)
conditioning salt tolerance in soybean (Glycine max
(L.) Merr.), two recombinant inbred line (RIL)
populations derived from crosses of FT-Abyara 9
C01 and Jin dou No. 6 9 0197 ...
Using remote sensing to assess impacts of land management policies in the Ordos rangelands in China
Implementation of land management policies influences land use and hence
causes environmental change. Taking the Ordos rangelands in China as a case
study, this paper explores the potential of remote sensing to assess in ...
Priming effect of 13C-labelled wheat straw in no-tillage soil under drying and wetting cycles in the Loess Plateau of China
he objectives of this study were to determine the effects of drying and wetting (DW) cycles on soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralisation and on the priming effect (PE) induced by the addition of 13C-labelled wheat straw to ...
Do faba bean (Vicia faba L.) accessions from environments with contrasting seasonal moisture availabilities differ in stomatal characteristics and related traits?
Drought is a major constraint to faba bean (Vicia faba L.) production, and there are many mechanisms by which leaves can regulate water loss. Our primary objective was to test if the origin of the faba bean accessions, ...
Economics of salt-induced land degradation and restoration
Food security concerns and the scarcity of new productive land have put productivity enhancement of degraded lands back
on the political agenda. In such a context, salt-affected lands are a valuable resource that cannot ...
Mapping deciduous rubber plantations through integration of PALSAR and multi-temporal Landsat imagery
Due to increasing global demand for natural rubber products, rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantation expansion
has occurred in many regions where it was originally considered unsuitable. However, accurate maps
of rubber ...
Mapping forests in monsoon Asia with ALOS PALSAR 50-m mosaic images and MODIS imagery in 2010
Extensive forest changes have occurred in monsoon Asia, substantially affecting climate, carbon cycle
and biodiversity. Accurate forest cover maps at fine spatial resolutions are required to qualify and
quantify these ...
Exacerbated grassland degradation and desertification in Central Asia during 2000–2014
Grassland degradation and desertification is a complex process, including both
state conversion (e.g., grasslands to deserts) and gradual within-state change (e.g., greenness
dynamics). Existing studies hardly separated ...
