Just published in @PlantCellEnvir Our study shows #soil #microbiota modulates #root #transcriptome, highlighting the interactions between P-starvation responses & microbiota re P status. doi.org/10.1111/pce.15… @WileyGlobal @UWAresearch @SAgE_UWA @IOA_UWA @AbioticStress

#Mungbean faces abiotic stress challenges during its critical reproductive stage. This @FoodEnergySec review underscores the need for more research and advanced tools to develop resilient varieties in response to demand and environmental pressures ➡️ ow.ly/w1x350PHVkR

China's crop growth has slowed, sparking questions about reaching full potential. 🌱 This @FoodEnergySec study revealed untapped potential for higher yields by targeting specific areas, which could give maize production a significant boost. ow.ly/jaXy50PG0qQ

#Cytokinin (CTK) & nitrogen are plant power duos! 🌿🌾 They team up to regulate growth, yield & more. Discover how CTK and nitrogen work together to boost crops' performance in this #OpenAccess @FoodEnergySec paper 👉 ow.ly/2qTJ50PqVxe

Time to celebrate! 🥳 Congratulations to our #bioresAT PhD student Peter Stasnik on the acceptance of his manuscript in @FoodEnergySec about #carbohydrate #metabolism and #phenotypic characterization of climate-resilient #Camelinasativa 👏 Stay tuned!

New research on rice (Oryza sativa L.) shows that low temperatures during germination can harm production. #OA article in @FoodEnergySec identifies 11 genetic loci linked to low-temperature germination, with loci 2 & 4 showing the most promise ➡️ ow.ly/epLP50N7ntL

📣I have a vacancy for a post-doc in my Lab at @JohnInnesCentre to help develop resistance to plant diseases in cereal crops using an immune receptor chassis. Excellent career development opps, working in a friendly and collaborative team. Apply - 21 Nov okt.to/QFjqJ9

New strategies to improve yield in global staple crops are needed if production keeps pace with growing demand. #OpenAccess article in @PlantCellEnvir examines the effects of photosynthetic enhancement on crop growth and yield across environments. ➡️ ow.ly/Mmko50LtzXV

How can researchers find solutions to the sustainability of #FoodSystems during #Climate challenges? Read "A new convergent science framework for food system sustainability in an uncertain climate" #OpenAccess in @FoodEnergySec. >>> ow.ly/bbPr50LgOme

Did you know that less than 20 plant species provide more than 95% of the world's calorie intake? 🤯 🔍 Discover the current status of the #MaramaBean and the pathways to bring this plant into wider agricultural use. Read now in @FoodEnergySec ⤵️ ow.ly/xX7Y50KX8Zq

Microalgal energy storage compounds can serve as renewable feedstocks for biobased chemicals. @FoodEnergySec Review examines the accumulation of energy storage compounds in microalgae by adding exogenous plant hormones combined with #AbioticStress 👉 ow.ly/5I2s50KKGB4

Researchers have revealed that multi-channel information campaign can be effective in enhancing farmers' knowledge in the fight against crop pests such as #FallArmyworm. Their study is published in the journal @FoodEnergySec (@CABI_News) blog.plantwise.org/2022/09/02/why…

Pleased to share our new paper with OPEN ACCESS in @FoodEnergySec .This is a result of a collaboration between @CEGE-@ucl & @UCLan Well Done-Ms. Eniola Shittu for an excellent masters dissertation.Special Thanks to Professor @luizacampos65 for the opportunity.

Photosynthesis is the engine of crop productivity, but is highly responsive to the environment. ☀️🌱 #OpenAccess research in @FoodEnergySec simulated the effect of improvements in photosynthesis. Read the results 👉 ow.ly/Jnmq50Kk6NR @XinyouYin @cropbooster

Can improving leaf photosynthesis increase productivity of major crops in Europe? If so, which parameters matter most? A simulation study by Jeremy Harbinson & myself using crop model GECROS for @cropbooster addresses these questions. doi.org/10.1002/fes3.4…, @FoodEnergySec

Research suggests that crop yields in China are limited by insufficient magnesium. #OpenAccess study in @FoodEnergySec examines the development and sustainability of China's agriculture based on a national survey 👉 ow.ly/jIsk50Kfb7q @xiaohui15215170 @Plant_Ionome2
