The growth and competition of a C3 crop rice and a C4 weed, barnyardgrass under FACE(free-air carbon dioxide enrichment) conditions were studied by field experiment. The results showed that under FACE condition, the biomass and yield, leaf number, tiller number, and leaf area index of rice increased, while those of barnyardgrass decreased. Both of the leaf area indexed of rice and barnyardgrass were decreased, while their net assimilation rate increased. When the ratio of planting density of rice and barnyardgrass was 1:1, all of the ratio of biomass, yield, leaf area index, tiller and net assimilation rate were increased under FACE condition. It indicated that the competition between rice and barnyardgrass changed under FACE condition. The competition ability of rice(C3 crop) was enhanced relatively, while that of barnyardgrass weakened.

To address food and nutrition security in the face of burgeoning global populations and erratic climatic conditions there is a need to include nutrient dense, climatic resilient but neglected indigenous fruit trees in agrifood systems. Here we present the draft genome sequence of Kei Apple, Dovyalis afra, a neglected indigenous African fruit tree with untapped potential to contribute to nutrient security and improved livelihoods. Our long-read-based genome assembly comprises 440 Mbp sequence across 1190 contigs with a N50 and L50 of 13.

Offering Internet-delivered therapy could be a solution to these barriers. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of therapist-guided Internet-delivered acceptance-enhanced behavior therapy (iBT) for SPD compared to a wait-list control condition.
