Direct root-zone irrigation (DRZ) is a novel subsurface strategy initially tested in vineyards for economizing water and securing grape production arid regions with unstable climatic patterns. However, studies are lacking on the responses of grapevine leaf carbon assimilation deep rooting patterns to strategy, which essential optimizing growth alleviating extreme stress during periods heat drought. Thus, two-year field study was conducted commercial vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Vitis...
California signed the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) into law in 2014. SGMA requires groundwater-dependent regions to halt overdraft and develop plans reach an annual balance of pumping recharge. aquifers can be recharged by flooding agricultural fields when fallow, but this has not been option for perennial crops such as fruit nut trees. While these might possible during dormant season, it is known what impact have on tree-root systems, health yield. We followed root...
While spent mushroom substrate (SMS) has shown promise in increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) and improving quality, research on the interplay between SOC components microbial community following application of diverse SMS types remains scant. A laboratory incubation experiment was conducted with two SMSs from cultivation Pleurotus eryngii (PE) Agaricus bisporus (AB), each at three rates (3, 5.5, 8%). Advanced techniques, including solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)...
The potential for sustaining grape production and improving crop water productivity in semi-arid areas through direct root-zone irrigation (DRZ) has been demonstrated recent studies; however, it only tested red wine grapes sandy soils. To expand its application, a field study was conducted to investigate the influences of DRZ with reduced rate on yield, berry quality, root growth, plant status white Vitis vinifera L. cv. Chardonnay grown silt loam soil within region Washington state, USA....
The purpose of this study was to observe the changes in soil nitrogen pools (active organic and inorganic fractions) after applying materials under drip irrigation with film mulching a semi-arid soil. two-year field experiment included four fertilization treatments: maize straw, fodder grass, sheep manure, control treatment no material applied (CK). results showed that application straw manure significantly increased total content by 9.02~13.33% 11.02~17.27%, respectively, while significant...
AimsAbiotic stresses may interact with each other to determine impacts on plants so that their combined impact is less than or more additive. Increasing UV-B radiation and surface ozone (O3) are two major components of global change have such interactive impacts. Moreover, invasive native populations respond differently as they can vary in primary secondary metabolism.
Vegetation restorations of degraded meadows have been widely implemented. The evaluation soil nutrient changes as affected by degradation is vital for efficient restorations. However, while macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) investigated, sulfur (S) one important element correlated tightly with other nutrients has not thoroughly studied. Two studies were conducted to determine elevation gradients. results showed that available S (AS) changed non-linearly the first principal...
In 2015, a project was launched to evaluate the potential for using new form of sub‐surface drip irrigation. Rather than applying micro‐irrigation through horizontal buried lines, irrigation delivered into vertical tubes placed 1 4 ft root‐zone soil. Juice and wine grapes were selected as model plant systems these proof‐of‐concept trials.

Elevated ozone and CO2 can differentially affect the performance of plant species. Variation among native, exotic invader species in their growth defense responses to may shape effects on invasions, perhaps part also due variation between native invasive populations invaders.
