Lodging is a factor that negatively affects yield, seed quality, and harvest ability in winter rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). In this study, we quantified the lodging-induced yield losses, changes fatty acid composition, oil quality under different nitrogen application rates planting densities. Field experiments were conducted 2014-2017 for studying effect of manually-induced lodging angles (0°, 30°, 60°, 90°), 10, 20 30 d post-flowering at densities rates. The fertilization/planting density...

Abstract Biochar is an extremely valuable carbon black material used since the Pre‐Columbian Era in Latin America and known for its properties to promote soil fertility sustain crop production. Modern civilization has followed footsteps of ancient civilizations prepared nano‐sized biochar (nano‐BC). The synthesis nano‐BC can be achieved using different feedstock materials via pyrolysis, yielding bulk‐BCs which are mechanical transformed into nano‐BCs, final value‐added product. This review...

Yield and lodging related traits are essential for improving rapeseed production. The objective of the present study was to investigate influence plant density (D) nitrogen (N) rates on morphological physiological yield in rapeseed. We evaluated Huayouza 9 two consecutive growing seasons (2014–2016) under three densities (LD, 10 plants m−2; MD, 30 HD, 60 m−2) four N (0, 60, 120 180 kg ha-1). Experiment laid out split plot design using as a main factor sub-plot with replications each. Seed...

Field trial was conducted to study the effect of nanofertilizer and biofertilizer on physicochemical properties grain yield wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under different irrigation levels. The treatments included four nanofertilizers (no nanofertilizer, nano zinc (Zn) oxide, iron (Fe) Zn-Fe each 1.5 g L−1), (without inoculation, seed inoculation by Azotobacter, Azosperilium, Pseudomonas), three levels (normal irrigation, moderate severe water limitation). Results indicated that limitation led...

Abstract Drought stress is the most pervasive threat to plant growth, which predominantly encumbers turf grass growth by causing alterations in functions. This study appraised role of nitrogen isotopes providing a theoretical basis for developing and improving Kentucky bluegrass cultivar performance under drought stress. Nitrogen labelled 15 NH 4 Cl K NO 3 were prepared replace KNO Hoagland’s solution at concentrations + 1.5, 15, 30 mM; solutions imposed on stressed plants glasshouse...

This study aimed to examine the effect of nitrogen (N) application rate and time on yield, grain filling, starch metabolizing enzymes, hormones maize based a long-term field experiment initiated in 2012. The total N fertilizer dose [(0 (N0), 100 (N1), 200 (N2), 300 (N3) kg ha-1] was split into two (T1, one-third at sowing two-thirds six-leaf stage) or three (T2, each sowing, six-leaf, eleven-leaf times application. results showed that highest yield obtained under N3T2, N2T1, N3T2 2018, 2019,...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are a major source of gaseous nitrogen loss, causing environmental pollution. The low organic content in the Loess Plateau region, coupled with high fertilizer demand maize, further exacerbates these N losses. fertilizers play primary role N2O by influencing soil denitrifying bacteria, however, underlying microbial mechanisms that contribute to have not been fully explored. Therefore, research aimed gain insights into intricate relationships between...

Drought and heat are major abiotic stresses that usually occur simultaneously cause significant yield losses in cereal crops including maize (Zea mays L.). First, ten genotypes of were screened using root length stress tolerance indices under (40 °C for 2, 4 6 h) drought (−0.2, −0.4, −0.6 MPa) stress. Two tolerant two sensitive selected their growth different biochemical traits analyzed (60% field capacity), (one cycle 40 hours) combined The results showed had a predominant effect over...

The quality of Coffee arabica L. beans, particularly the aroma, is a key determinant commercial value. Fatty acids, as precursors volatile aroma compounds, play crucial role in this quality. Screening and identification their related genes are particular significance. This study identified 21 members CaFAD gene family C. genome using bioinformatics tools. Gene duplication events observed were likely driven by natural selection mutation pressure, with being more prominent. Transcriptome...

Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major constraint to crop productivity in acidic soils, frequently encountered banana-growing regions. This study investigates physiological and biochemical responses Al stress two Cavendish banana genotypes, Baodao Baxi (Musa acuminata L.), which exhibit contrasting levels of tolerance. Banana plantlets were grown hydroponically under three AlCl3 concentrations (0, 100, 500 μM) for 24, 48, 72 h. Root elongation was progressively inhibited with increasing...
