Micromorphological Approach to Identify Polygenesis in Soils
It is often difficult to distinguish pedogenic features of different origins in soils that could have experienced multiple episodes of climatic... -
Telomere-to-telomere genome of the allotetraploid legume Sesbania cannabina reveals transposon-driven subgenome divergence and mechanisms of alkaline stress tolerance
Alkaline soils pose an increasing problem for agriculture worldwide, but using stress-tolerant plants as green manure can improve marginal land....
