TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access
(2020)
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem ...
The Rural Household Multiple Indicator Survey, data from 13,310 farm households in 21 countries
(2020-02)
The Rural Household Multiple Indicator Survey (RHoMIS) is a standardized farm household survey
approach which collects information on 758 variables covering household demographics, farm area,
crops grown and their ...
A framework for selecting and designing policies to reduce marine plastic pollution in developing countries
(2020)
The polluting of marine ecosystems with plastics is both a global and a local problem with potentially severe consequences for wildlife, economic activity, and human health. It is a problem that originates in countries ...
A single polyploidization event at the origin of the tetraploid genome of Coffea arabica is responsible for the extremely low genetic variation in wild and cultivated germplasm
(2020)
The genome of the allotetraploid species Coffea arabica L. was sequenced to assemble independently
the two component subgenomes (putatively deriving from C. canephora and C. eugenioides) and
to perform a genome-wide ...
Assessing the accuracy and robustness of a process-based model for coffee agroforestry systems in Central America
(Springer, Nueva York (Estados Unidos), 2020)
Coffee is often grown in production systems associated with shade trees that provide different ecosystem services. Management, weather and soil conditions are spatially variable production factors. CAF2007 is a dynamic ...
Global transpiration data from sap flow measurements: the SAPFLUXNET database
(2020)
Plant transpiration links physiological responses of vegetation to water supply and demand with hydrological, energy and carbon budgets at the land-atmosphere interface. However, despite being the main land evaporative ...
Variación intraespecífica de rasgos funcionales de Cedrela odorata L. en la Península de Nicoya, Costa Rica
(2020)
El cambio climático modificará el régimen hidrológico global a causa de alteraciones en la magnitud de la precipitación y temperatura, y su interacción con las condiciones físicas y de vegetación de cada lugar; esto ...
CGIAR modeling approaches for resource-constrained scenarios: II. Models for analyzing socioeconomic factors to improve policy recommendations
(Agonomy Crop and Soil Science Societies, 2020)
International crop-related research as conducted by the CGIAR uses crop modeling for a variety of purposes. By linking crop models with economic models and approaches, crop model outputs can be effectively used as inputs ...
Applying conservation social science to study the human dimensions of Neotropical bird conservation
(2020)
As the global human population increases, and many bird populations in the Neotropics and the rest of the world continue to decline, the study of the intersection of humans, birds, and conservation has become more relevant ...
Accurate Differentiation of Green Beans of Arabica and Robusta Coffee Using Nanofluidic Array of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Markers
(2020)
Green (unroasted) coffee is one of the most traded agricultural commodities in the world. The Arabica (Coffea arabica L.) and
Robusta (Coffea canephora Pierre ex A. Froehner) species are the two main types of coffees for ...
