Figure 2 Minden (2026): Output of the effects of zebularine treatment at seed germination on plant traits showing transgenerational plasticity (i.e., with a significant PT effect or interaction PT × OT). Means and ± standard errors for plant traits and for each species separately. Parental generation was either grown under N-limitation or balanced nutrient supply, offspring generation either under N-limitation (left columns, orange and yellow graphs) or balanced nutrient supply (right columns, blue graphs). Orange bars and dark-blue bars show trait values for Control-zebularine treatments (0µM), yellow bars and light-blue bars for zebularine 50 µM. Asterisks indicate significance of parental nutrient treatment, for each zebularine treatment and parental/offspring treatment-combination separately (i.e. for bar graphs of the same colour) and done with Tukey test using marginal means, with *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 and n.s. at p > 0.05. Exact p-values for each trait are given in

There are two main ways that reduced #fertilizer supply can impact crop production. Delayed, or sub-optimal, #nitrogen application could result in lower yields from #grain crops, chart #GoldmanSachs
The Strait of #Hormuz is a critical route for the world’s #nitrogen #fertilizer market, which is especially important for crops like #corn and other #grains - chart #GoldmanSachs

After plant & animal cells first evolved 600m years ago, it took life less 30m years to recover from mass extinctions. The same time it takes for fossil fuels to form. Today, we throw life back 1.5bn years due to #nitrogen aka meat & fertilisers. In 1.5bn years the sun will evaporate water on Earth.

Excellent! Updated tech that can pull #nitrogen out of the air for fertiliser. Onfarm machines that are cheaper than applying standard nitrogen #fertiliser
There are already machines available in the US that can do this.

Nitrogen prices are the highest they've been in a long time - what are you doing to combat these high prices?
Our "Fert Curve" trials aim to maintain strong yields with reduced nitrogen rates! Read about the project:
