Functional characterization of the maize (Zea mays L.) lateral rootless 1 gene
(2022-12-14)
All root types form lateral roots. They are critical for efficient water and nutrient uptake by increasing the absorbing surface of the root system. In the maize differentiation zone, pericycle and endodermis cells adjacent ...
Health and Welfare Implications of Climate Variability: Evidence from Rural Uganda
(2022-12-20)
Uganda has been highly affected by extreme weather events and climate change in the recent years. Weather-related disasters could potentially affect health outcomes directly, or indirectly through its deleterious effects ...
Genetic variations in root architecture traits for water and nitrogen use efficiency in wheat and barley
(2022-11-24)
The soil edaphic resources such as water and nitrogen are essential for crop production because they are required by plants for proper growth and tissue development. The global crop production is vulnerable due to rapid ...
Options to improve irrigation efficiency and productivity under rotational delivery schedule, a bottom-up approach applied at canal irrigation scheme in Pakistan
(2022-12-06)
In Punjab, Pakistan, the Warabandi principle guides the distribution of surface water over a network of canals providing farmers with limited water in proportion to land size in a fixed 7-days rotation. Current problems ...

(2019-11-25)
Technology transfer from academia to industry in emerging knowledge areas such as the bioeconomy is considered a major challenge. In this regard, there have been an increasing number of policy and funding initiatives (e.g. ...
Transitions towards sustainable agriculture: The case of wheat-based production systems in Egypt
(2023-12-11)
Egypt, the world's largest wheat importer, grapples with a critical challenge marked by a substantial disparity between its annual wheat production and consumption, with the latter doubling by 2050 due to a 1.94% yearly ...
Reduction of Gaseous Emissions from Slurry by the Application of Alkaline Additives
(2023-12-12)
The agricultural sector is undergoing a profound transformation process to meet international and national regulations and laws. These are being enacted by policymakers to limit the sector's tremendous gaseous emissions ...
Market expectations, public information and uncertainty resolution in agricultural commodity and equity markets
(2023-12-14)
The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) states that price movements result from changes in market expectations when new information becomes available. This thesis focuses on such revisions of expectations around the releases ...
Efficient calibration strategies for panoramic terrestrial laser scanners
(2021-01-25)
Terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) measurements are unavoidably affected by systematic errors due to internal mechanical misalignments, while the calibration is the fundamental procedure for mitigating these effects and ...
The role of inositol pyrophosphates in the regulation of plant stress responses
(2023-07-13)
Inositol polyphosphates (InsPs) have been described as important messengers in eukaryotic cells. InsPs with one or more diphospho groups are also termed inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs), which gained special attention ...
