Evaluation of Soil Management Effect on Crop Productivity and Vegetation Indices Accuracy in Mediterranean Cereal-Based Cropping Systems

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Mostly, precision agriculture applications include the acquisition and elaboration of images, and it is fundamental to understand how farmers’ practices, such as soil management, affect those images and relate to the vegetation index. We investigated how

Phylogenetic and expression analyses of HSF gene families in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and characterization of TaHSFB4-2B under abiotic stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) family is widely present in eukaryotes including plants. Recent studies have indicated that HSF is a multifunctional group of genes involved in plant growth and development, as well as response to abiotic ...

The state of sustainable agriculture and agroecology research and impacts: A survey of U.S. scientists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A growing body of research suggests that although sustainable agriculture, particularly agroecology, can address challenges such as those related to climate change, ecosystem services, food insecurity, and farmer livelihoods, the transition to such ...

Winter wheat yields in a long-term tillage experiment under Pannonian climate conditions

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2015
Long-term field experiments are important for assessing the yield response of crops to different tillage systems and pre-crops. An experiment was established in 1996 in Raasdorf (Austria) on a chernozem with four tillage treatments (mouldboard ploughing (

Genetic analysis of phenotypic plasticity identifies BBX6 as the candidate gene for maize adaptation to temperate regions

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionClimate changes pose a significant threat to crop adaptation and production. Dissecting the genetic basis of phenotypic plasticity and uncovering the responsiveness of regulatory genes to environmental factors can significantly contribute to ...

Gamma-aminobutyric acid elicits H2O2 signalling and promotes wheat seed germination under combined salt and heat stress [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Background In the realm of wheat seed germination, abiotic stresses such as salinity and high temperature have been shown to hinder the process. These stresses can lead to the production of reactive oxygen species, which, within a certain concentration ...

Enset‐based agricultural systems in Ethiopia: A systematic review of production trends, agronomy, processing and the wider food security applications of a neglected banana relative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is the major starch staple of the Ethiopian Highlands, where its unique attributes enhance the food security of approximately 20 million people and have earned it the title “The Tree Against Hunger”.

Farmers\u27 Perception on the Performance of Different Rice Varieties in Kapilvastu District, Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Rice is the major staple food crop in Nepal. To date, several rice varieties have been developed and released in Nepal. However, rice production is far below in comparison with its production potential.

Evolutionary plant breeding for low input systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Heritable variation is at the heart of the process of evolution. However, variation is restricted in breeding for uniform crop populations using the pedigree line approach. Pedigree lines are successful in agriculture because synthetic inputs are used to
