A reflectance model for the homogeneous plant canopy and its inversion
Tiit Nilson,Andres Kuusk +1 more
TL;DR: An analytical reflectance model for a statistically homogeneous plant canopy has been developed in this article, considering both the single and the multiple scattering of radiation in the canopy and on the soil and accounting for the specular reflection of radiation on leaves and canopy hot spot.

Comparing annual and perennial energy cropping systems with different management intensities
TL;DR: In this article, a four-year field trial was conducted on one site in south-western Germany to compare and evaluate the biomass and energy yield performance of important energy crops, including short rotation willow coppice, miscanthus, switchgrass, energy maize and two different crop rotation systems including winter oilseed rape, winter wheat and winter triticale.

Wheat improvement in India: present status, emerging challenges and future prospects
TL;DR: The current major challenges facing future wheat production in India are increasing heat stress; dwindling water supplies for irrigation; a growing threat of new virulence of diseases such as wheat rusts, yellow, brown, and black; continuous adoption of rice-wheat systems on around 11 million hectares; changes in urbanization patterns, and demand for better quality wheat.

Fusarium head blight: epidemiological origin of the effects of cultural practices on head blight attacks and the production of mycotoxins by Fusarium in wheat grains
TL;DR: Three different cultural practices are today considered to be of prime importance for combating this disease and the production of mycotoxins: deep tillage, the choice of the preceding crop in the rotation and the choiceof appropriate cultivar, as varietal effects exist.
