Journal Article
Humphrey, O., Young, S., Bailey, E., Crout, N., Ander, E., & Watts, M. (2018). Iodine soil dynamics and methods of measurement: a review. Environmental Science: Processes and Impacts, 20(2), https://doi.org/10.1039/c7em00491e

Iodine is an essential micronutrient for human health: insufficient intake can have multiple effects on development and growth, affecting approximately 1.9 billion people worldwide. Previous reviews have focussed on iodine analysis in environmental a... Read More about Iodine soil dynamics and methods of measurement: a review.

Challenges and opportunities for Moringa growers in southern Ethiopia and Kenya (2017)
Journal Article
Kumssa, D. B., Joy, E. J. M., Young, S. D., Odee, D. W., Ander, E. L., Magare, C., …Broadley, M. R. (2017). Challenges and opportunities for Moringa growers in southern Ethiopia and Kenya. PLoS ONE, 12(11), Article e0187651. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0187651

Moringa oleifera (MO) and M. stenopetala (MS) are two commonly cultivated species of the Moringaceae family. Some households in southern Ethiopia (S. ETH) and Kenya (KEN) plant MS and MO, respectively. The edible parts of these species are rich in am...

Journal Article
Kumssa, D. B., Joy, E. J., Young, S. D., Odee, D. W., Ander, E. L., & Broadley, M. R. (2017). Variation in the mineral element concentration of Moringa oleifera Lam. and M. stenopetala (Bak. f.) Cuf.: role in human nutrition. PLoS ONE, 12(4), Article e0175503. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0175503

Background: Moringa oleifera (MO) and M. stenopetala (MS) (family Moringaceae; order Brassicales) are multipurpose tree/shrub species. They thrive under marginal environmental conditions and produce nutritious edible parts. The aim of this study was...

Journal Article
Bowley, H. E., Mathers, A. W., Young, S. D., MacDonald, A. J., Ander, E. L., Watts, M. J., …Bailey, E. H. (2017). Historical trends in iodine and selenium in soil and herbage at the Park Grass experiment, Rothamsted Research, UK. Soil Use and Management, 33(2), 252-262. https://doi.org/10.1111/sum.12343

Long term trends in iodine and selenium retention in soil, and uptake by herbage, were investigated in archived samples from the Park Grass Experiment, initiated in 1856 at Rothamsted, UK. Soil (0-23 cm) and herbage samples from plots receiving vario... Read More about Historical trends in iodine and selenium in soil and herbage at the Park Grass experiment, Rothamsted Research, UK.
