Data from: Estimating agronomically relevant symbiotic N fixation in green manure breeding programs

Muller, Katherine; Guinness, Joseph; Hecking, Matthew; Drinkwater, Laurie (2021)

Widespread use of legume green manures is limited by a lack of reliable varieties that meet the needs of farmers. Improving symbiotic N fixation (SNF) in open-pollinated legume species poses a challenge because normal ...
Data from: Cultivar mixtures: A meta-analysis of the effect of intraspecific diversity on crop yield

Reiss, Emily R.; Drinkwater, Laurie E. (2017-09-13)

Extensive research has shown that greater plant community diversity leads to higher levels of productivity and other ecosystem services, and such increased diversity has been suggested as a way to improve yield and ...
Data from "Carbonate Determination by Mid-IR Spectroscopy with Regional and Continental Scale Models"

Comstock, Jonathan P; Ferguson, Richard; Bailey, Scarlett; Beem-Miller, Jeffery P; Sherpa, Sonam R; Lin, Feng; Lehmann, Johannes; Wolfe, David W (2016-12)

A carbonate (CO3) prediction model was developed for soils throughout the contiguous United States using mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy. Excellent performance was achieved over an extensive geographic and chemical diversity ...
