Drought tolerance processes in soybeans

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 1981
Fifteen soybean cultivars were evaluated in two water supply conditions, inducing or not a drought stress. Main canopy traits were measured several times during the reproductive period and, at maturity date, the yield components were estimated. Using principal components analysis, the main physiological functions involved in soybean drought tolerance ...

Irrigation of previous crops alleviates the negative impact of replacing chemical fertilizers with organic fertilizers on foxtail millet yield

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
Switching from chemical to organic fertilizers is considered an ideal choice because it can yield numerous benefits for soil health, environmental sustainability, and crop production. However, it is still unclear how to effectively implement and maximize

Conditional and unconditional QTLs mapping of gluten strength in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
: Dissecting the genetic relationships among gluten-related traits is important for high quality wheat breeding. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis for gluten strength, as measured by sedimentation volume (SV) and gluten index (GI), was performed ...

Response of foxtail millet yield, soil chemical property and bacterial community to different green manure-foxtail millet rotation models in North China

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
China is a largely agricultural country, while the drought climate in northern of China is more and more severe, which influences on the agriculture production seriously. The over-exploitation of groundwater is a critical issue in the low plains of Hebei

Effects of tillage practices and rate of nitrogen fertilization on crop yield and soil carbon and nitrogen

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2014
We conducted field experiments since 2006 to determine the effect of tillage practices and rate of nitrogen fertilization on soil properties and crop yield. Four tillage practices and five N rates were used.

Histone Modification Complex JMJ704‐HDA709 Negatively Regulates Salinity Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the rice histone demethylase JMJ704 interacts with HDA709―a H3K9ac deacetylase characterized herein―to form a chromatin‐modifying complex. Under salt stress, OsWRKY72 recruits this complex through interaction with JMJ704 to target loci, repressing the expression of oxidative stress and salt‐responsive genes via removal of ...

A Conserved DT2‐bZIP66‐NF‐YC4 Regulatory Module Confers Drought Tolerance in Rice and Arabidopsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a conserved tripartiteDT2–bZIP66–NF‐YC4 transcriptional module that enhances rice drought tolerance by activating stress‐responsive genes. This regulatory complex is functionally conserved across cereals and Arabidopsis, providing promising targets for engineering drought‐resilient crops. ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts
