Climate adaptation in <i>Populus trichocarpa</i>: key adaptive loci identified for stomata and leaf traits Open
Summary We investigated adaptive genetic variation in Populus trichocarpa , a potential biofuel feedstock crop, to better understand how physiological traits may influence tolerance to water limitation. Our study focused on leaf and stomat…

Climate adaptation in<i>P. trichocarpa</i>: key adaptive loci identified for stomata and leaf traits Open
Identifying the genetic basis of traits underlying climate adaptation remains a key goal for predicting species responses to climate change, enabling the elucidation of gene targets for future climate-resilient crops. Here, we measured 14 …

Harnessing the power of poplar tree natural genetic variation for the development of future sustainable biofuels and bioproducts: a droughted marginal-land experiment for multi-disciplinary investigations Open
The emerging bioeconomy offers significant potential to replace fossil-fuel-based energy, manufacturing, and processing with that utilizing biomass as the raw feedstock. However, feedstock production from non-food crops such as fast-growin…

Making watercress (Nasturtium officinale) cropping sustainable: genomic insights into enhanced phosphorus use efficiency in an aquatic crop Open
Watercress ( Nasturtium officinale ) is a nutrient-dense salad crop with high antioxidant capacity and glucosinolate concentration and with the potential to contribute to nutrient security as a locally grown outdoor aquatic crop in norther…

Improved yield and health benefits of watercress grown in an indoor vertical farm Open
Watercress (Nasturtium officinale R. Br.) is a highly nutritious leafy crop with a rich health-related phytonutrient profile including secondary plant metabolites such as glucosinolates. This semi-aquatic crop is well-suited for indoor hyd…

Biomass traits and candidate genes for bioenergy revealed through association genetics in coppiced European Populus nigra (L.) Open
The three associations identified reaching genome-wide significance at p < 0.05 include a transcription factor; a putative stress response gene and a gene of unknown function. None of them have been previously linked to bioenergy yield; we…

High‐resolution spatial modelling of greenhouse gas emissions from land‐use change to energy crops in the United Kingdom Open
We implemented a spatial application of a previously evaluated model of soil GHG emissions, ECOSSE , in the United Kingdom to examine the impacts to 2050 of land‐use transitions from existing land use, rotational cropland, permanent grassl…
