Researchers supply significant genomic insight into tar spot on corn
First reported in 2015, tar spot is an emerging disease on corn that has rapidly spread across the United States and Canada, causing tremendous yield loss estimated at $1.2 billion in 2021 alone. Tar spot gets its name from its iconic symptoms that r.....»»
Study finds almost the same amount of carbon is sequestered in mineral soil and stems in heath forests
A recent study from the Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luke) examined the size of carbon stocks in heath forests and their distribution into different compartments of the forest ecosystem both above and below the ground level. The carbon flux m.....»»
New water-fertilizer strategy to achieve high yield of maize and resource use efficiency simultaneously
Water scarcity and low soil fertility are the main factors limiting crop production in semi-arid regions. One the other hand, excessive water resource input and large amount of fertilizer application not only lead to low water productivity and nitrog.....»»

The Q4 2023 earnings report has arrived with Apple's board of directors declaring a $0.24 per share after another year-over-year revenue decline.Apple earningsIt hasn't been the easiest year for Apple with a revenue decline across all four quarters o.....»»
Nvidia RTX 4090 prices are skyrocketing as stocks run seriously low
The Nvidia RTX 4090 graphics card is in short supply, and that’s causing prices to skyrocket at a range of online stores. Is it the start of a new GPU shortage?.....»»
Researchers find promising locus for molecular design breeding in legumes
In cereal and legume crops, the size of the plant organs, particularly seeds, is closely related to final yield. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying organ size control in legumes are still poorly understood......»»
Microbial allies may help turn tables on tar spot fungus in corn
Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists are leaving no stone—or rather, leaf—unturned in their search for new ways to counter the fungus that causes tar spot, a yield-robbing disease of field corn in the midwestern United States......»»
Early Black Friday deal gets you this cordless vacuum for under $100
It's not yet Black Friday, but you can already buy the Wyze Cordless Vacuum for just $98 from Walmart. You need to hurry though, as stocks may run out soon......»»
Targeting a coronavirus ion channel could yield new COVID-19 drugs
The genome of the SARS-CoV-2 virus encodes 29 proteins, one of which is an ion channel called E. This channel, which transports protons and calcium ions, induces infected cells to launch an inflammatory response that damages tissues and contributes t.....»»
Seismic survey not expected to impact oyster yield in Australian waters
New research suggests that exposure to a single seismic survey is unlikely to increase mortality or affect pearl production in adults of an oyster species farmed in Australian waters......»»
Local chemical pressure experimentally sensed by optical probe
The practical application of high-pressure metastable materials is hindered by severe synthesis condition, poor yield, and mostly vanishing phase and phenomena after decompressing. The scaled-up capture of these metastable states to ambient pressure.....»»
NASA to unveil first images of historic asteroid sample
NASA is set to reveal on Wednesday the first images of the largest asteroid sample ever collected in space, something scientists hope will yield clues about the earliest days of our solar system and perhaps the origins of life itself......»»
Improved mangrove conservation could yield cash, carbon, coastal benefits
A shift in the way we think about the benefits mangroves provide to coastal regions could yield significant economic and biodiversity gains and protect millions from flooding, research has revealed......»»
Dark matter could be annihilating inside white dwarfs
As the search for dark matter particles continues to yield nothing, astronomers continue to look at ways these elusive particles might be found. One general method is to look for evidence of dark matter particle decay. Although dark matter doesn't in.....»»
Gain-of-function allele of HPY1 coordinates source and sink to increase grain yield in rice
Rice is a primary staple crop for over half of the global population, and the continual enhancement of its yield holds significant significance in ensuring world food security. Therefore, achieving sustained increases in rice production has remained.....»»
Ecologists use satellite images to predict wheat yield with 98% accuracy via satellite imagery
RUDN University ecologists found a parameter in satellite images that allows accurately calculating and increasing the wheat yield. Such technology helps agronomists monitor crops and make decisions. These results were published in The Egyptian Journ.....»»
Earthworms contribute to 6.5% of global grain production
Earthworms are important drivers of global food production, contributing to approximately 6.5% of grain yield and 2.3% of legumes produced worldwide each year, according to new work published by Colorado State University scientists in the journal Nat.....»»
Iron-based molecular switch improves reaction yield by modulating zeolite catalyst acidity
A molecular switch, or molecule that changes in response to varying environmental stimuli, has successfully modified the acidity of a zeolite catalyst to improve the yield of paraxylene from methanol in heterogeneous catalysis, or a reaction where th.....»»
Using satellite data to enhance global food security
Accurate estimates and forecasts of crop area and yield play an important role in guiding policy decisions related to food security, especially in light of the growing impacts of climate change. IIASA researchers and colleagues highlight the value of.....»»
Dolphins, seals and whales managed by the US are highly vulnerable to climate change, study finds
According to a study published in PLOS ONE, 72% of cetacean and pinniped stocks managed under U.S. jurisdiction are highly or very highly vulnerable to climate change. The research was led by Matthew D. Lettrich at NOAA Fisheries, in Silver Spring, M.....»»
