Amelioration of Defense System by Exogenous Citric Acid Application to Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) Plant [PDF]

open access: yesHorticulture Research Journal
Improper agricultural practices over the decades symbolize a serious problem for various crops productivity. Citric acid (CA) (C6H8O7) has demonstrated a superior role in abiotic stress resistance in plants.

Multi-model cross-pollination in time [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2017
Predictive skill of complex models is often not uniform in model-state space; in weather forecasting models, for example, the skill of the model can be greater in populated regions of interest than in "remote" regions of the globe. Given a collection of models, a multi-model forecast system using the cross pollination in time approach can be ...

Benefits of Cross-Pollination in Vegetable Soybean Edamame

open access: yesJournal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
Dependence on cross-pollination varies widely among wild and cultivated plant species. Even among crops that are less dependent on outcrossing, such as soybean (Glycine max L.), cross-pollination can improve fruit quality and commercial value. There is a

SNP markers reveal relationships between fruit paternity, fruit quality and distance from a cross-pollen source in avocado orchards

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Cross-pollination can improve fruit yield, fruit size and nutritional quality of many food crops. However, we rarely understand what proportions of the crop result from self- or cross-pollination, how cross-pollination affects crop quality, and how far ...

Pollination Compatibility and Xenia in Camellia oleifera

open access: yesHortScience, 2020
Camellia oleifera, a major woody oil plant, has a low oil yield because of self-incompatibility. For commercial oil production, compatible pollen and optimal cross-pollination combinations are required.

Pollen-Mediated Movement of Herbicide Resistance Genes in Lolium rigidum. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The transfer of herbicide resistance genes by pollen is a major concern in cross-pollinated species such as annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum). A two-year study was conducted in the greenhouse, under favorable conditions for pollination, to generate ...

Cross-and self-pollination to evaluate the yield characteristics in F3 melon (Cucumis melo L.) inbred lines [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade)
This study aims to determine the percentage of pollination of a combination of cross-pollination and self-pollination in several melon inbred lines and to determine the yield character of the combination of cross-pollination and self-pollination in F3 ...
