In intercropping systems shading conditions significantly impair the seed yield and quality of soybean, rarely someone investigated minimum amount light requirement for soybean growth development. Therefore, it is an urgent need to determine threshold intensity ensure sustainable production under these systems. An integrated approach combining morphology, physiology, biochemistry genetic analysis was undertaken study effects on A pot experiment set up in a chamber increasing treatments 100...
Planting patterns affect nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) acquisition distribution in maize soybean under intercropping conditions. Here we reveal that strip relay-intercropping increases the N, P, K uptake across plant organs (root, straw, seed) of soybean, accelerates dry-matter production intercrop-species, compensates slight yield loss by considerably increasing yield. In a two-year experiment, was planted with different planting (SI, 50:50 cm SII, 40:160 cm)...
Different planting patterns affect the light interception of intercrops under intercropping conditions. Here we revealed that narrow-wide-row relay-intercropping improves across maize leaves in wide rows (60cm) and narrow (40cm), accelerated biomass production intercrop-species compensated slight yield loss by considerably increasing soybean yield. In a two-year experiment, was planted with different (1M1S, 50:50cm 2M2S, 40:60cm) relay-intercropping, both were compared sole cropping (M) (S)....
The BRI1-EMS suppressor 1 (BES1)/brassinazole-resistant (BZR1) transcription factors, key components in the brassinosteroid signaling pathway, play pivotal roles plant growth and development. However, function of BES1/BZR1 crops during stress response remains poorly understood. In present study, we characterized ZmBES1/BZR1-5 from maize, which was localized to nucleus responsive abscisic acid (ABA), salt drought stresses. Heterologous expression transgenic Arabidopsis resulted decreased ABA...
Abstract Planting arrangements affect radiation use efficiency (RUE) and competitiveness of intercrop species in intercropping systems. Here, we reveal that narrow‐wide‐row planting arrangement maize‐soybean relay‐intercropping system increases the dry matter soybean, increased RUE maize compensates yield loss by substantially increasing soybean. In this field study, was planted with soybean different (P1, 20:180, P2, 40:160; P3, 60:140, P4, 80:120) relay intercropping, all treatments were...
Photosynthetic rate (Pn) and photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE) are the two important factors affecting photosynthesis nutrient utilization of plant leaves. However, effect N fertilization combined with foliar application Fe on Pn PNUE maize crops under different planting patterns (i.e., monocropping intercropping) is elusive. Therefore, this experiment was conducted to determine characteristics, PNUE, associated enzymes patterns. The results study showed that intercropping,...
Sustainable increases in crop production require efficient use of resources, and intercropping can improve water efficiency land productivity at reduced inputs. Thus, a three-year field experiment, the performance maize/soybean strip system differing with maize plant density (6 plants m-2, low, D1; 8 medium, D2; 10 high, D3) was evaluated comparison sole or soybean cropping system. Results revealed that among all treatments, D2 had significantly higher total leaf area index (maize LAI + LAI;...
Maize-soybean relay-intercropping (MSR) is a famous system of crop production in developing countries. However, maize shading under this directly affects the light quality and intensity soybean canopy. This challenging scenario which to implement MSR system, terms varieties selection, planting pattern, management since duration resource utilization clearly differs. Therefore, experiment aimed elucidate effect leaf excising treatments from top fully clarify needs balance intercrop-soybean...
Drought stress is one of the major limitations to growth and yield productivity cereal crops. It severely impairs early growing grain -filling stages wheat. Therefore, cost- effective eco-friendly approaches for alleviating drought in crops are high demand. Polyamines, such as putrescine, have a significant effect on improving crop under drought- conditions. current study was executed with aim exploring significance putrescine yield- related traits Two distinct wheat cultivars...
In maize soybean intercropping-system plants significantly increase the shade density at canopy, and few people studied threshold level of for sustainable production in this system.This experiment was started to determine effect four different treatments T75 (75%); T50 (50%); T25 (25%); T0 (0%, control) on morphology, physiology yield plants.Relative T75, increased stem diameter breaking strength while plant height decreased.The chlorophyll a, b, a + photosynthetic fluorescence...
Mung bean is a short-duration and essential food crop owing to its cash prominence in Asia. seeds are rich protein, fiber, antioxidants, phytonutrients. The NAC transcription factors (TFs) family large plant-specific family, participating tissue development regulation abiotic biotic stresses.In this study, we perform genome-wide comparisons of VrNAC with their homologs from Arabidopsis. We identified 81 mung genome named as per chromosome location. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that...
Oilseeds yield response to sulphur (S) has been well investigated but the dynamics of total biomass accumulation (TBA) and partitioning by sesame plants in S are not understood. This study was initiated investigate effects on sesame, which four varieties V1, SG-27; V2, SG-30; V3, SG-36; V4, SG-51 treatments T1, 20; T2, 30; T3, 40; T4, 50 kg ha−1 were used. Results revealed that leaf area index photosynthetic rate significantly higher under T3 with V3. Similarly, fertilization considerably...
Soybean production under maize–soybean relay-intercropping system (MSICS) is vulnerable to shading. A study was initiated investigate the effects of three sowing-times: ST1, 90; ST2, 70; and ST3, 50 days co-growth period two phosphorus-rates: P0, 0; P60, 60 kg P ha−1 on soybean MSICS.
