Evaluating the effects of cotton intercropping on cool‐season perennial forage persistence, forage mass, and nutritive value in the southeastern United States
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Agronomy Journal"
DOI: 10.1002/agj2.21625
Abstract: Integrated forage–row cropping systems provide important agronomic and economic benefits to producers. However, little attention has been given to incorporating forages into row crop systems unique to the southeastern United States. This study assessed the… read more here.

Are Large‐Scale Differences in Temperature and Reindeer Management Regime Affecting the Quality of Reindeer's Summer Forage?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72500
Abstract: ABSTRACT The chemical balance between essential nutrients and defense compounds in plants determines the quality of the forage available to herbivores and can be modified by both environmental conditions and herbivores themselves. We investigated whether… read more here.

Fire and forage quality: Postfire regrowth quality and pyric herbivory in subtropical grasslands of Nepal
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8794
Abstract: Abstract Fire is rampant throughout subtropical South and Southeast Asian grasslands. However, very little is known about the role of fire and pyric herbivory on the functioning of highly productive subtropical monsoon grasslands lying within… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecog.07723
Abstract: In shelf ecosystems, benthic invertebrates facilitate nutrient recycling and the transfer of energy to higher trophic levels. However, large‐scale monitoring through direct sampling (e.g. using benthic grabs or bottom trawls) can be costly in terms… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4238
Abstract: Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that temperate herbivores surf the green wave of emerging plants during spring migration. Despite the importance of autumn migration, few studies have conceptualized resource tracking of temperate herbivores during this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2205-6_19
Abstract: The majority of forage grass species are obligate outbreeders. Their breeding classically consists of an initial selection on spaced plants for highly heritable traits such as disease resistances and heading date, followed by familial selection… read more here.
