Article Abstract
This dataset presents greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes-carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O) measurements collected from smallholder cropping systems in Chuka, Upper Eastern Kenya. The study aimed to assess the effects of different cropping systems on soil GHG fluxes, as described in a related study (Lemarpe et al., 2023). Data were collected over two cropping seasons from five cropping systems: sole maize, maize-bean intercrop, agroforestry, banana and coffee replicated three times. The study used static chambers to measure GHG fluxes, which were then analyzed using gas chromatography. The dataset also consists of soil physicochemical parameters (bulk density, total nitrogen, organic carbon, and pH), soil moisture, rainfall, and crop yield data for maize and beans. This dataset offers findings on how agricultural practices affect GHG emissions and the possibility of smallholder cropping systems, such as agroforestry, to act as nature-based solutions for climate change mitigation.

Heterostyly is a polymorphic floral adaptation controlled by supergenes. The molecular basis of distyly has been investigated in diploid species from several unrelated families, but information is lacking for polyploid systems. Here, we address this knowledge gap in Schizomussaenda henryi, a tetraploid distylous species of Rubiaceae, the family with the greatest number of heterostylous species.

Glycogen is a complex branched glucose polymer that serves as energy reservoir in animals and some bacteria; it has also been synthesized in vitro. It comprises small β particles linked in large aggregates termed α particles. Theory, based on the evolutionary processes which cause these particles to be formed, suggests that if all ingredients for in vitro particle synthesis were added to a suspension of α particles, then these will grow to a steady-state size distribution, after which new particles will be formed.

Amylose content (AC) is a key determinant of wheat quality, and the TaWaxy gene determined amylose synthesis with a dose-dependent effect on AC. In this study, the TaWOX5 gene, which significantly enhances wheat transformation efficiency, was combined with CRISPR/SpCas9 system to generate TaWaxy mutants in a commercial winter wheat Jimai 22. Seven transgene-free mutant types were produced, compared to only three transgene-free mutants in the spring wheat variety Ningchun 4.

Agriculture has played a pivotal role in shaping European mountain biodiversity. Traditional practices, characterized by low intensity and crop mosaics, have historically created complex, heterogeneous landscapes that supported a high biodiversity level. Agricultural intensification has turned these traditional crop systems into artificial habitats, leading to increased field sizes, habitat fragmentation, and decrease of habitat heterogeneity, contributing to the current farmland biodiversity crisis.

Tightly bound tritium (TBT) in soil is poorly studied in terms of its bioavailability. This paper presents the results of long-term studies (2018 through 2023) on the bioavailability of tightly bound tritium in soil. Field studies were conducted in the epicentral zones of the Semipalatinsk test site (STS), using dominant and subdominant species.
