Abstract Intercropping, the growing of more than one crop at the same time within the same land area, could be a sustainable method of crop production in semiarid regions, which could increase biodiversity, and productivity and quality of crops compared to monocultures.

In vitro screening of the effect of three glucosinolate derived nitriles on soil-borne fungi [PDF]
Glucosinolates are allelochemicals present in all plants of the order Capparales that are hydrolysed by endogenous enzymes (myrosinases) forming a variety of compounds with biological activity.

ABSTRACT Wild lentil genotypes are a valuable resource for genetic diversity, but their scientific study and utilization in breeding programs have been hampered by traits such as crossability barriers and seed dormancy. To make wild lentil genotypes more accessible for further exploration, we investigated the effect of different seed scarification ...

Alfalfa disease resistance [PDF]
Producers may be anxious to get in new seedings of alfalfa, but the wet soils may result in seedling disease problems this spring. The most important fungi attacking alfalfa seedlings are Aphanomyces euteiches, Phytophthora medicaginis, and several ...

Two alternative recessive quantitative trait loci influence resistance to spring black stem and leaf spot in Medicago truncatula [PDF]
Background Knowledge of the genetic basis of plant resistance to necrotrophic pathogens is incomplete and has been characterised in relatively few pathosystems.

High‐throughput phenotyping platforms for pulse crop biofortification
Pulse crops, including dry pea, lentil, and chickpea, are rich sources of protein, low digestible carbohydrates, and micronutrients. With the increasing demand for plant‐based protein with gluten‐free and allergen‐free foods, pulse crops have become of global importance for meeting the nutritional demand of growing populations. Breeding for nutritional

Effects of light on oospore germination of Aphanomyces euteiches.
The effect of light on oospore germination of Aphanomyces euteiches was investigated. Of 29 isolates, from 5 districts in Japan, 7 were obviously promoted oospore germination by light exposure. Two isolates AE-F10 and AE-M3a were studied in detail. More than 90% of isolate AE-F10 oospores germinated with 10 days of 2, 000lux white fluorescent light ...

ABSTRACT A growing demand for plant‐based proteins and renewable nitrogen supplies has necessitated an intensification of legume cultivation in Europe. However, the cultivation of grain legumes is inherently exposed to various risks, including lodging and fungal infections.

Nucleolar actions in plant development and stress responses
Abstract The nucleolus is conventionally acknowledged for its role in ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis and ribosome biogenesis. Recent research has revealed its multifaceted involvement in plant biology, encompassing regulation of the cell cycle, development, and responses to environmental stresses. This comprehensive review explores the diverse roles of

Aphanomyces euteiches Race 2 in Central Illinois Alfalfa Fields
Approximately 260,000 ha of alfalfa is grown in Illinois. Two soil samples were collected randomly from slowly drained thin patches in each of four established alfalfa fields near Urbana in 2001. Plants in the thin patches were asymptomatic. Aphanomyces euteiches Drechs. was baited from the soil with cv. Saranac alfalfa seedlings and was isolated from
