This landmark paper by Burgess & Webster (1980a) signalled a new era in the spatial mapping of the soil. The emergence of pedometrics as a distinct subdiscipline of soil science was a gradual process, and had its roots in earlier studies than this on...

A regulatory module controlling GA-mediated endosperm cell expansion is critical for seed germination in Arabidopsis (2018)
Journal Article

A key component of seed germination is the interplay of mechanical forces governing embryo growth and the surrounding restraining endosperm tissue. Endosperm cell separation is therefore thought to play a critical role in the control of this developm...

Methane transport in agricultural soil after injection of isotopically-enriched methane in the sub-surface (2018)
Journal Article
