Through the process of domestication, selection is targeted on a limited number of plant
traits that are typically associated with yield. As an unintended consequence, domesticated …

Soil degradation is widespread in smallholder agrarian communities across the globe where
limited resource farmers struggle to overcome poverty and malnutrition. This review lays out …

Current food systems are challenged by relying on a few input-intensive, staple crops. The
prioritization of yield and the loss of diversity during the recent history of domestication has …

Establishing desirable cropping systems with higher fertilizer-use efficiency and lower risk of
environmental pollution is a promising approach for more sustainable agriculture …

The exploration of phenotypic spaces of large sets of plant species has considerably
increased our understanding of diversification processes in the plant kingdom …

Green roofs are promoted to contribute to more resilient cities by enhancing urban
ecosystem services and food systems. Extensive, low‐maintenance green roofs experience …

Crop domestication has led to the development of distinct trait syndromes, a series of
constrained plant trait trade‐offs to maximize yield in high‐input agricultural environments …

Abstract Background and Aims Organic farmers are showing increasing interest in using
conservation tillage to improve the biological activities of soils. Here, we assessed whether …

Plant growth environment plays an important role in shaping soil microbial communities. To
understand the response of soil rhizosphere microbial communities in Oplopanax elatus …

Relationships between crop genetic and functional diversity are key to addressing
contemporary agricultural challenges. Yet, there are few approaches for quantifying the …
