The Role of Coffee Microbiomes in Pathogen Resistance Across Varieties and Ecological Niches

Microorganisms
The plant microbiome plays a role in pathogen defense, but its role in different resistant varieties and ecological niches remains unclear. This study used 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing to investigate microbial communities and interactions in disease ...

Modern systems of agriculture and a new interpretation of crop rotation value of agricultural crops

The Scientific Journal Grain Crops, 2020
Based on a broad experimental study of crop rotation productivity in different locations of the Steppe zone, a correlative model for estimating the role of predecessors in the formation of post-crop yields has been developed. The connection between quality of agrotechnologies and change of degree of crop rotation competitiveness of culture is presented.

Metabolome and transcriptome profiling reveals distinct regulatory networks underlying high-protein and high-oil traits in soybean cultivars Wandou 28 and Zhongdou 63

BMC Plant Biology
Background Soybean is a vital global source of protein and oil. Breeding is constrained by a persistent trade-off between seed protein content, oil content, and yield.

NANOPARTICLES – A BOON TO AGRICULTURAL AND HORTICULTURAL CROPS

, 2022
Understanding and modifying matter at scales measurable in nanometres is called nanotechnology (1-100 nm). Unique physical and chemical characteristics, such as face area, severance size, flyspeck shape, and reactivity, define nanoparticles (Bandala and Berli, 2018). When delivered by the epidermal foliar route, Li et al.

Genetically Modified Crops and Labor Savings in US Crop Production [PDF]

In spite of widespread adoption there is mixed evidence as to whether or not adopting Genetically Modified (GM) crops increase farm welfare. One possible reason for widespread adoption is labor savings.

The miRNAome of ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.): identification, expression, and potential roles of novel microRNAs in regulation of cadmium stress response

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate numerous crucial abiotic stress processes in plants. However, information is limited on their involvement in cadmium (Cd) stress response and tolerance mechanisms in plants, including ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.) that
