Magnesium biofortification of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) via agronomy and breeding as a potential way to reduce grass tetany in grazing ruminants (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019, The Author(s). Aim: Magnesium (Mg) deficiency (known as grass tetany) is a serious metabolic disorder that affects grazing ruminants. We tested whether Mg-fertiliser can increase Mg concentration of Italian ryegrasses (Lolium multiflorum L.)...

Uptake competition between selenium and sulphur fertilizers in sequential harvests of ryegrass: A stable isotope study (2019)
Conference Proceeding

The demand for sulphur (S) fertilizers has increased due to declining S emissions from coal burning and subsequent deposition on agricultural land. Slow-release S may only be beneficial for grass Selenium (Se) status initially and less beneficial for...

Overexpression of the MYB29 transcription factor affects aliphatic glucosinolate synthesis in Brassica oleracea (2019)
Journal Article

Isothiocyanates, the bio-active hydrolysis products of glucosinolates, naturally produced by several Brassicaceae species, play an important role in human health and agriculture. This study aims at correlating the content of aliphatic glucosinolates...
