DOI: 10.1002/agj2.70124

Abstract: Concerns about forage crop productivity often focus on persistence. Research shows that binary grass–legume mixtures yield more than nitrogen (N)‐fertilized grass monocultures. However, their long‐term ability to sustain higher production and profits remains uncertain. To… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6203

Abstract: Abstract Modern metabolomic approaches that generate more comprehensive phytochemical profiles than were previously available are providing new opportunities for understanding plant‐animal interactions. Specifically, we can characterize the phytochemical landscape by asking how a larger number… read more here.
