Abstract Soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is the leading Indian oilseed crop grown under rainfed conditions. Meticulous understanding of genotype × environment interaction patterns essential to develop superior and widely adaptable soybean varieties. In current study, 32 genotypes were evaluated at eight locations for two consecutive years. Additive main effect multiplicative ANOVA revealed that only 41.6% variance was explained by first principal component axes (IPCAs), leaving 58.4%...

Soil-borne diseases, including charcoal rot (Macrophomina phaseolina) and collar (Sclerotium rolfsii), threaten global soybean production. Four fungicide combinations were tested as seed treatments at three concentrations (1, 1.5, 2 g or ml per kg of seed) under controlled conditions to address the challenges posed by these diseases. Under conditions, combination thiophanate methyl + pyraclostrobin a rate mL/kg significantly alleviated disease symptoms caused both pathogens. Additionally, it...

Charcoal rot is one of the most destructive fungal diseases soybean, caused by pathogen called Macrophomina phaseolina. This disease thrives in warm and dry conditions, affecting yield soybean other important agronomic crops. Existing methods used to screen suffer from several drawbacks including, manual rating, low accuracy, high operating time, system complexity. To circumvent these drawbacks, we developed a laser biospeckle based sensor characterize charcoal crop. Applicability proposed...
