Testing of Clonal Bermudagrass Cultivars and Experimental Genotypes for Differences in Drought Performance
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Bermudagrass is used in many parts of the world as a forage crop and as turfgrass in sports fields, golf courses and lawns. Selection and identification of drought resistant bermudagrass cultivars under acute or chronic ...
Drought-induced epigenetic modulation and transcriptional variation of winter wheat
(2020-12)
The worsening climate uncertainty has exacerbated environmental stress, and the accompanying extreme weather disasters have damaged crop production across the globe. The yield production of wheat, one of the world's most ...
Monitoring and modeling soil salinity dynamics at greenhouse and field scales
(2018-12)
An integrated monitoring and modeling approach was undertaken in greenhouse and field scale in terms of three main studies. In the first study, the changes in soil salinity and several other chemical properties were ...
Evaluation of turf-type bermudagrass cultivars and experimental genotypes for rooting characteristics and drought performance
(2021-07)
Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) is one of the most widely used warm-season turfgrasses in the southern and transition zone areas of the United States. Due to the scarcity of water for turfgrass irrigation, it is necessary to ...
Plant Stress and Drivers in Ecosystem Sustainability
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
We sampled switchgrass ( Panicum virgatum L.) in adjacent fields near Medford, OK. Fields were either enrolled in CRP or were considered old field. Switchgrass in the CRP plots appeared to have a higher soluble protein ...
Long-term loblolly pine aboveground growth, canopy dynamics, and economic implications from throughfall exclusion, fertilization, and thinning in southeastern Oklahoma, USA
(2020-12)
Loblolly pine (Pinus tadea L.) is the most commercially important timber species in the southern USA. Climate change induced drought, due to longer periods without rainfall, will alter forest growth in the region. Loblolly ...
Genome-wide analysis of drought stress induced histone 3 lysine 4 and histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation modifications in winter wheat
(2020-07)
Drought stress brings great impact on plant growth and development, that it is the most critical threat to world food security. Although drought responsive mechanisms plants have developed to tolerate drought stress are ...
Effects of tree size and forest structure on forest dynamics
(2022-12)
Climate change is exacerbating drought disturbances, reducing forest productivity, and causing increased forest mortality. Manipulating tree size and overall forest structure are two important components that are being ...
What kills trees? Drivers, mechanisms, and timing of climate-induced tree mortality
(2021-05)
In recent decades, drought-induced tree mortality has been observed on every forested continent of the planet. This is of great concern, as trees support some of the most biodiverse communities on Earth, are keystones in ...
