Drought affects Fe deficiency‐induced responses in a purple durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum) genotype

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Combined Fe deficiency and drought in durum wheat trigger interactive responses: drought suppressed root Fe uptake regardless of Fe availability, and both stresses altered phytosiderophore release, ABA level and Fe transporter gene expression, revealing a trade‐off between water and Fe. Abstract Iron (Fe) is essential for plants and humans, with over 2

Sulphur‐mediated iron homeostasis in four tetraploid wheats (Triticum turgidum L.)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Polish wheat's tolerance to S limitation enables a well‐orchestrated response for efficient Fe acquisition when S is scarce, involving increased Fe accumulation, enhanced phytosiderophore release, and upregulated TdIRO2 and TdYSL15 expression. Abstract Sulphur (S) deficiency is known to hinder iron (Fe) uptake and distribution in wheat, mainly by ...

Phytohormone Profiles of Lettuce and Pepper Grown Aeroponically with Elevated Root-Zone Carbon Dioxide Concentrations

Agronomy, 2020
Enhancing root-zone (RZ) dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) levels of plants grown aeroponically can increase biomass accumulation but may also alter phytohormone profiles in planta.

Root trait dynamics of historical canola varieties under low and high nitrogen supply

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen fertilizer is a major input cost in crop production, making it crucial to enhance nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) to reduce fertilizer dependence without compromising yields. Root system architecture (RSA) is a key determinant of nutrient acquisition, particularly under nutrient‐limited conditions.

Case studies of Roots, Tubers and Bananas seed systems. [PDF]

, 2017
The seed systems of RTB (root, tuber, and banana) crops are unique because they are propagated from vegetative parts of the plant, not from true seed. RTB seed is thus bulkier, more perishable, and more subject to the attacks of pests and diseases than ...

Comparative Phytochemical Profiles of Medicinal Plants Used for Wound Treatment: Insights From Wild and Hydroponically Cultivated Species in Lugazi Diocese, Uganda

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Medicinal plants such as Centella asiatica, Conyza sumatrensis, and Justicia betonica are widely used in Uganda for traditional wound healing. However, the impact of cultivation conditions on their therapeutic potential remains poorly understood.

Challenges in the Production of High-Quality Seed Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) in the Tropics and Subtropics

Agronomy, 2020
The potato has been a widely used vegetable crop in temperate countries for a long time. Its consumption and the area of its cultivation has increased significantly over the past decades in the tropics and subtropics as well.

Assessing the viability of hydroponics for low‐income farmers in South Africa's urban agriculture sector: An urban political ecology perspective

Urban Agriculture &Regional Food Systems, Volume 11, Issue 1, 2026.
Abstract Urban agriculture in densely populated areas is significantly constrained by space, leading to interest in vertical farming solutions like hydroponics. This study evaluates hydroponics’ viability in Cape Town's low‐income urban areas as a useful supplement to most research, which focuses on cities in the Global North.

Urban gardening in Dhaka: Practices, constraints, and impacts

Urban Agriculture &Regional Food Systems, Volume 11, Issue 1, 2026.
Abstract The production of fruits and vegetables by urban residents can enhance food security and provide various additional benefits, but empirical data to support these claims is limited. This study uses questionnaire‐based data from 1320 households in Dhaka, Bangladesh, including 1079 gardeners and 241 non‐gardeners, to examine urban gardening ...
