Vicia villosa, a high-quality green manure crop, helps to increase the content of soil phosphorus (P) by returning field. Soil P deprivation is severe constraint on crop productivity that triggers low stress response in plants, which controlled various transcriptional regulatory network pathways. Identifying key genes from these networks can help developing P-tolerant crops. In this study, we p...

in order to evaluate forage quality in intercropping, two field experiments were carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran, in 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 growing seasons. two maize (zea mays l.) hybrids (sc704, sc301), vetch (vicia villosa), bitter vetch (vicia ervilia), ber...

Abstract. Subsoil carbon (C) stocks are a prime target for efforts to increase soil C storage climate change mitigation. However, subsoil dynamics not well understood, especially in soils under long-term intensive agricultural management. We compared and organic matter (SOM) composition tomato–corn rotations after 25 years of differing nutrient management the California Central Valley: CONV (mi...

The Peruvian Altiplano presents increasing fertility losses, being susceptible to natural erosion. For many years, conventional agricultural management has generated losses of the topsoil and deterioration soil properties, impacting in crop yields deepening degradation this vulnerable ecosystem. aim research was determine benefits cover crops against erosion, health quinoa yield. trial carried ...

This study aimed to elucidate the chemical response of hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) interspecific competition by rye (Secale cereale L.). Hairy plants were grown as target in a mixture with different densities (0, 1, 2, and 4). Twelve flavonoids shoot, root, root exudate quantified high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Kaempferol 3-O-{β-D-rhamnosyl-(1...

The inclusion of undersown cover crops in crop rotations and the use biopesticides are essential for long-term sustainability agroecosystem organic farming. We hypothesized that (crimson (incarnate) clover (Trifolium incarnatum Broth.), hairy (winter) vetch (Vicia villosa Roth.), perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), winter rye (Secale cereale L.)) likely to have a positive impact on soil agr...
