The soil surface food web in conservation agriculture as the foundation for conservation biocontrol
<p>Data on Collembola (per 5 cm diameter sample), spiders (per 0.25 m<sup>2</sup>), carabid beetles (per 0.25 m<sup>2</sup>), aphids (per straw), and simulated max density of aphids from conservation agriculture fields (CA) and conventionally tilled fields (CT).</p>
Data from: Loamy sand soil approaches organic carbon saturation after 37 years of conservation tillage
<p>This is digital research data corresponding to a published manuscript, Loamy sand soil approaches organic carbon saturation after 37 years of conservation tillage. Conservation tillage is reported to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) contents, but long-term (>30 yr) field results quantifying the responses in Coastal Plain Ultisols are sparse. The distribution, accumulation, and topsoil storage of SOC and TN after 37 yr of crop production using conventional (CvT) or conservation tillage (CnT) on a Norfolk loamy sand (fine-loamy, kaolinitic, thermic, Typic Kandiudults) were quantified. Soil samples were collected annually from the 0−5-, 5−10-, and 10−15-cm depth increments beneath corn (Zea mays L.), soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) crops.</p>
Data from: Annual and perennial Medicago show signatures of parallel adaptation to climate and soil in highly conserved genes
<p class="AbstractSummary">Human induced environmental change may require rapid adaptation of plant populations and crops, but the genomic basis of environmental adaptation remain poorly understood. We analyzed polymorphic loci from the perennial crop <i>Medicago sativa </i>(alfalfa or lucerne) and the annual legume model species <i>M. truncatula </i>to search for a common set of candidate genes that might contribute to adaptation to abiotic stress in both annual and perennial <i>Medicago</i> species.</p> <p class="AbstractSummary">We identified a set of candidate genes of environmental adaptation associated with environmental gradients along the distribution of the two <i>Medicago</i> species. Candidate genes for each species were detected in homologous genomic linkage blocks using genome-environment (GEA) and genome-phenotype association analyses.</p> <p>Hundreds of GEA candidate genes were species-specific, of these, 13.4% (<i>M. sativa</i>) and 24% (<i>M. truncatula</i>) were also significantly associated with phenotypic traits. A set of 168 GEA candidates were shared by both species, which was 25.4% more than expected by chance. When combined, they explained a high proportion of variance for certain phenotypic traits associated with adaptation. Genes with highly conserved functions dominated among the shared candidates and were enriched in Gene Ontology terms that have shown to play a central role in drought avoidance and tolerance mechanisms by means of cellular shape modifications and other functions associated with cell homeostasis.</p> <p class="AbstractSummary">Our results point to the existence of a molecular basis of adaptation to abiotic stress in <i>Medicago</i> determined by highly conserved genes and gene functions. We discuss these results in light of the recently proposed omnigenic model of complex traits.</p>

Data for: The effects of leaf traits on litter rainfall interception with consequences for runoff and soil conservation
<ol> <li><span>During rainfall, plant litter interception regulates overland flow with an impact on water runoff generation and sediment displacement. Besides the rainfall characteristics, the effects of litter mass, thickness, storage and drainage properties on rainfall interception are reasonably well understood. In contrast, less is known about the influence of leaf traits, which we hypothesized to affect interception, soil hydrology and conservation via litter structure assembly. </span></li> <li><span>We measured the runoff and soil loss generation as determined by litter layer structural and hydraulic properties of 16 coexisting tropical woody species with wide-range morphological leaf traits in a rainfall simulator experiment. </span></li> <li><span>Our results show that litter produced by coexisting species can differ in precipitation interception, thereby influencing runoff and soil loss. This is because there is important interspecific variation in litter water storage and drainage, which are negatively affected by leaf area. Leaf water repellency positively affected litter water storage. Moreover, leaf area also negatively affected litter layer density. Litter density, in turn, increased runoff, but decreased soil loss, possibly due to protection against splash erosion. </span></li> <li> <span>T</span><span>hese results can be used to predict the effects of plant traits on the soil water balance and soil integrity protection through ecohydrological interception by the litter layer. The next research steps will be to extend our model to multiple-species litter layers and to validate and calibrate our model in different field situations in different ecosystems.</span> </li> </ol>
