Developing cover crop systems for California almonds: Current knowledge and uncertainties
نویسندگان
چکیده
Almond (Prunus amygdalus) orchard systems are highly productive and widespread in Mediterranean climates dominate the California agricultural landscape. However, current intensive monocultural bare soil production practices limit potential to support nonproduction functions (i.e., multifunctionality) long-term sustainability of system (Aizen et al. 2019; Fenster 2021). Managing orchards for multifunctional benefits includes maintaining ecologically economically viable yields while prioritizing water quality, health, reduced input use, biodiversity. Recent studies almond demonstrate that diversification, including planted or spontaneous (resident) vegetation alleys, can improve multifunctionality by enhancing without reducing crop yield, thereby providing opportunities enhance resilience (Fenster 2021; Morugán-Coronado 2020).

Fatty acid composition of California grown almonds.
Eight almond (Prunus dulcis L.) cultivars from 12 different California counties, collected during crop years 2004 to 2005 and 2005 to 2006, were extracted with petroleum ether. The extracts were subjected to GC-MS analyses to determine fatty acid composition of soluble lipids. Results indicated palmitic (C16:0), oleic (C18:1), linoleic (C18:2), and alpha-linolenic (C18:3) acid, respectively, ac...
متن کاملCoronary artery spasm: Current knowledge and residual uncertainties☆
Myocardial ischaemia results from a direct mismatch between oxygen supply and demand, commonly arising as a result of coronary atherosclerosis, microvascular dysfunction or acute thrombosis and luminal obstruction. However, transient ischaemia may also occur due to coronary spasm leading to acute and unexpected myocardial ischaemia without obvious visible coronary pathology. Aside from symptoms...
