Entomological considerations for domestication of pennycress, Thlaspi arvense, as a cash cover crop
Pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.), a common annual weed in temperate regions, is being domesticated as a winter cover crop and oilseed crop for the Midwest U.S. corn-soybean rotation. This domestication presents significant agricultural and environmental benefits; however, understanding of the …

Understanding the genetic architecture of secondary domestication traits in Field Pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.)
Thlaspi arvense L. (Field Pennycress) is a newly domesticated winter annual oilseed capable of improving ecosystems and intensifying agricultural productivity without new land displacement. Pennycress is a winter hardy cover crop that provides ecosystem services such as reduced soil erosion and …

Identification of Volatile Compounds Contributing to the Aroma of Pennycress and Camelina Seeds and Protein Extracts
Pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) and camelina (sativa) are two oilseed crops from theBrassicacea family. They can be planted as cover crops and offer agricultural and economic benefits when used in rotation with other common crops. These crops are being investigated for potential uses in the food …

An integrative approach for germplasm utilization, genetic diversity and QTL mapping in Camelina spp. and crop-production issues in Thlaspi arvense, new promising oilseed crops for bioenergy and industrial uses
… Camelina (Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz) and pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) have been targeted as promising crops due to their potential to supply market demands not only for biofuels and animal feed, but also for industrial and nutraceutical products. Camelina and pennycress have already …

Inositol Pyrophosphate Phosphatases as Key Enzymes to Understand and Manipulate Phosphate Sensing in Plants
… thaliana (Arabidopsis) and Thlaspi arvense (Pennycress). Exploring the impact of plant PP-InsP phosphatases has allowed me to explore critical aspects of PP-InsP sensing that show great promise for informing P remediation strategies.

Management strategies for control of soybean cyst nematode and their effect on the nematode community
… Some amendments-particularly canola meal, pennycress seed powder and condensed distiller's solubles-effectively reduced SCN populations at 40 days after planting soybeans. By 70 days after planting, SCN control by amendments was diminished. Additionally, phytotoxicity was a concern, …

The sustainability of tropical maize as an alternative biofuel or silage crop
… Two annual cover crops, annual ryegrass and pennycress, were compared to a perennial ground cover, creeping bentgrass, and a no-cover control. Annual cover crops produced tropical maize biomass yields similar to the no-cover control regardless of hybrid. Animal performance was similar when …

Distribution and Characterization of the Soybean Cyst Nematode, Heterodera glycines (HG) Types in South Dakota
… (Capsella bursa-pastoris), and field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) are also hosts for SCN. The losses to soybean production caused by SCN vary mainly with the degree of infestation (population density), susceptibility of the cultivar grown, and other biotic and abiotic factors such as …

Advancing plant transformation and CRISPR/Cas editing: Strategies for recalcitrant maize
… mesophyll protoplasts from in vitro cultured pennycress and soil-grown camelina. The protocol encompasses instructions for both DNA transfection and assessing protoplast viability test through fluorescein diacetate. The result demonstrated high-yield isolation, successful transfection, and …
