Web9 Apr 2024 · It is also important to note that logging degrades forest genetics by indiscriminately removing trees that may be resilient to drought, disease, insects, and fire. Among the criticisms of the Hagmann paper by Baker and co-authors is that most fire research and interpretation of historical forest conditions is based on fire scar studies. Web25 Feb 2024 · On the foreseen climate change context, breeding toward drought tolerance is necessary in order to ameliorate plant performance. Therefore, the aim of this work was to study the reproduction mechanisms of the strawberry tree, obtain new genetic combinations by hybridization, and select genotypes more tolerant to drought stress.

WebThe American Peanut council has identified drought as the top challenge facing the peanut industry as only 35% of growers in the U.S. have irrigation capabilities. For this reason, breeding for drought tolerance is paramount for the peanut industry. In previous work, we have identified cultivars that use two different strategies (water spenders and water … Web2 days ago · As forests in this region become more open, drought-tolerant trees (e.g., hardwoods like the California black oak (Quercus kelloggii; Knops et al. 1994)) and shrub species that can respond to increased light are becoming more prevalent as live conifer cover is reduced (Fettig et al., 2024, Stephens et al., 2024).
