Impacts of temperature and rootstocks on tomato grafting success rates [PDF]

, 2020
Numerous studies have highlighted the merits of grafting to improve the performance of vegetable crops. However, the technique is hindered by several obstacles, including the synchronization of seedlings used as scions and rootstocks, and the effects of ...

Controlling plant architecture by manipulation of gibberellic acid signalling in petunia. [PDF]

, 2014
Since stem elongation is a gibberellic acid (GA) response, GA inhibitors are commonly used to control plant height in the production of potted ornamentals and bedding plants. In this study, we investigated interfering with GA signaling by using molecular

The influence of the vegetation cycle and the mixture (grasses and legumes) on the height of the plants on sown grasslands [PDF]

Journal of Central European Agriculture
The speed of growth, as well as the height of plants on sown lawns, are important from the point of view of the possibility of obtaining a larger number of swaths if the growth is faster, and obtaining a higher yield, if the plants are of a higher age ...

GLYPHOSATE DRIFT IN EUCALYPTUS PLANTS [PDF]

Planta Daninha, 2015
With the present study we aim to assess the damage caused to Eucalyptus plants exposed to glyphosate drift in different canopy portions. The drift simulation was carried out through application of 1,080 g ha-1 of glyphosate in five canopy portions (0, 25,

Variability of the height of plants of hybrid forms of spring common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under different ecological and geographical conditions

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015
The results of two-year research (2013–2014) of the variability of plant height in spring common wheat hybrid forms (F4, F5) in three geographical localities, including Russia (Tyumen region) and Germany (Baden-Württemberg and Lower Saxony), which differ

Air-based Mechanical Stimulation Controls Plant Height of Ornamental Plants and Vegetable Crops under Greenhouse Conditions

HortTechnology, 2021
Mechanical stimulation to produce stable and high-quality crops under greenhouse conditions is a promising alternative to chemical growth retardants. However, plant tissue damage and the lack of full automatization have been major constraints for large ...

The contribution of photosynthesis traits and plant height components to plant height in wheat at the individual quantitative trait locus level [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractPlant height is an important agronomic trait for morphogenesis and grain yield formation in wheat. In this study, we performed both normal and multivariate conditional quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses for plant height with spike length, internode number, length of the first internode to the sixth internode from the top during harvest ...

Fine Mapping of Cla015407 Controlling Plant Height in Watermelon [PDF]

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021
The plant compact and dwarf growth habit is an important agronomic trait when breeding watermelon ( Citrullus lanatus ) cultivars because of their reduced vine length, high-density planting, and better land utilization; however, the genetic basis of the dwarf growth habit is not well-known ...
