Potassium (K) is a primary macronutrient for overall plant growth, yield potential, product quality and stress resistance of crops. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) crops require high amount potassium to achieve the ideal quality. Therefore, determination optimum K rate efficient source potato necessary because affects crop physiological processes, dry matter production, cooking, processing requirements. Through modeling on pooled data extracted from 62 studies, highest tuber yields might be...
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;...

There is relatively little information about root growth response under different tillage systems in cool temperate regions. In a 5‐yr field trial at two sites [loamy silt (1995–1999) and sandy loam soils (1996–2000)] the Swiss midlands, effect of intensity [no‐tillage (NT) conventional (CT)] on morphology distribution winter wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) roots harvest was studied for 3 yr (1997–1999). The length density (RLD), mean diameter (MD), relative per diameter‐class were determined...
We studied the effects of a 2-day exposure to aluminum (Al), copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) stress on root exudates apices aseptically grown poplar (Populus tremula L.) cuttings. Aluminum induced exudation oxalate citrate, Cu oxalate, malate formate, Zn formate. The threshold treatment concentrations were 100 μM for 500 Al Zn, corresponding about 30 Cu2+, 140 Al3+ 290 Zn2+. Simultaneous with increase in organic acid anion exudation, sulfate nutrient cations K+, Ca2+ Mg2+ released into solutions....
The production of American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) is severely limited by the replant disorders in China. Crop rotation with maize might reduce problems, but little information available on effect soil cultivated ginseng. In this study, we analyzed nutrients, phenolic acids, and microbial communities soils from fields continuous maize, mono-culture ginseng, 1-, 3-, 5-year after Pot experiments were also conducted to evaluate performance replanting these soils. results showed that...
Dwindling supplies of fossil fuels and their deleterious impacts on human health the global environment have intensified search for substitute energy sources. Biodiesel has been identified as a promising renewable diesel fuel due to several comparable sustainable properties. However, approximately 95% biodiesel is derived from edible oil crops, threatening current food supplies. Therefore, production potential inexpensive, non-edible, non-conventional bioenergy such Jatropha (Jatropha curcas...
Cereal/legume intercropping is becoming a popular production strategy for higher crop yields and net profits with reduced inputs environmental impact. However, the effects of different spatial arrangements on growth, grain yield, nitrogen uptake, land-use advantage wheat/soybean relay are still unclear, particularly under arid irrigated conditions. Therefore, in three-year field study from 2018 to 2021, soybean was intercropped wheat configurations (0.9 m, narrow strips; 1.8 medium 2.7 wide...
Potatoes and tomatoes are important Solanaceae crops that require effective disease monitoring for optimal agricultural production. Traditional methods rely on manual visual inspection, which is inefficient prone to subjective bias. The application of deep learning in image recognition has led object detection models such as YOLO (You Only Look Once), have shown high efficiency identification. However, complex climatic conditions real environments challenge model robustness, current...
There is little information about root growth response to tillage and starter fertilization in cool temperate regions. Maize ( Zea mays L.) morphology distribution at anthesis were studied 1997 1999 two sites the Swiss Midlands on a loamy silt sandy loam soil. The effects of system, conventional (CT) vs. no‐tillage (NT), fertilizer (SF) banded one side seed row evaluated. Roots determined soil cores taken 9.5 cm each 25 deep. overall length density (RLD) was significantly greater under CT...
To understand the phytoremediation capability of poplar 107 (Populus × euramericana cv. 'Neva') and 118 nigra Populus ussuriensis) stressed by cadmium (Cd), a hydroponic culture was performed. Cd accumulation translocation were evaluated, activities antioxidant enzymes lipid peroxidation assessed ultrastructural alterations in root tip cells investigated. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity leaves two cultivars exposed to 50 μM 100 significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that control SOD...
Abstract Maize/soybean relay intercropping system (MSR) is a popular cultivation method to obtain high yields of both crops with reduced inputs. However, in MSR, the effects different strip widths on competitive strengths and grain intercrop species are still unclear. Therefore, two-year field experiment, soybean was relay-intercropped maize three strip-width arrangements (narrow-strips, 180 cm; medium-strips, 200 wide-strips, 220 cm), all results were compared sole (SM) (SS). Results showed...
Abstract We investigated the individual and synergistic impact of gypsum, elemental sulfur, vermicompost, biochar, microbial inoculation on soil health improvement in degrading calcareous saline-sodic soils. developed Linear nonlinear quantification frameworks to assess efficacy remedial practices. The combined inoculated chemical organic treatments; gypsum + vermicompost sulfur with 134% (0.29 versus 0.68) 116% 0.62) increases index, significantly increased amendments compared control. An...
Lodging in cereal crops can result yield loss and harvesting difficulties for growers. Application of plant growth regulator (PGR) has been an indispensable management practice to reduce lodging problems that are often exacerbated during high wind growing conditions and/or nitrogen (N)/water environments, but the data is limited Columbia Basin Oregon. The objective this research was evaluate effect two PGR products (chlormequat chloride-CC, trinexapac-ethyl-TE) at different rates application...
<abstract> Biochar is a carbon-rich stable substance, defined as charred organic matter, produced during biomass thermochemical decomposition, and its application currently considered mean of enhancing soil productivity, which an important requirement for increasing crop yields whereas, simultaneously, it improves the quality contaminated water. However, depending on pedoclimatic conditions, applicability exhibits negative aspects well. It can also support biofuel production, therefore...
