A new study identifies the genetic basis behind the adaptation strategies used by plants to cope with the harsh natural environment. These adaptation strategies include enriching the growth-promoting bacteria in the roots and actively selecting genes necessary for survival, which may be used to guide the cultivation of crops to make them more adaptable to climate change. In an era of accelerating climate change, it is vital to reveal the genetic basis for increasing crop yield and resilience under drought and malnutrition conditions, said Gloria Coruzzi, a professor in the Department of Biology and the Center for Genomics and Systems Biology at New York University... Next, researchers at New York University used high-performance computing clusters to conduct systematic genome analysis, comparing the genome sequences of 32 Atacama plants with 32 unsuitable but genetically similar sister species and several other model species for comparison... By studying the ecosystems in the natural environment, we can identify the genetic and molecular processes that each species adapts to in the face of a common harsh environment, said Viviana Araus of the University of Ponticia, Católica de Chile, a former professor of genomics at New York University...

With May 2018 to April 2019 being the wettest 12-month period on record, according to NOAA, many farmers across the nation were forced to delay planting. In fact, for the first time on record, less than half of corn was planted by May 19, says the USDA. Even by June 2, “both corn and soybean planting were proceeding at a record slow pace. ”For those with cover crops, these wet conditions likely affected their termination plans, causing some to debate whether they should terminate before or after planting. Penn State Extension Educator and Agronomist Heidi Reed says she saw several farmers in York County, Pa...
