Editorial: Breeding for intercropping [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Intercropping, also known as mixed cropping, consists on simultaneously growing more than one species on a field. It has a great potential for enhancing water- and nutrientuse efficiency and improving plant productivity, yield stability and resilience to biotic and abiotic stress, including those triggered by climate change.

Cereal–vegetable intercropping: hindrances and strategies to increase intercropping

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry, 2023
Climate change is the major factor that affects crop yield and productivity in the long term. The changing climate scenario is now impacting farmers’ lands and their outcomes in both developed and developing countries. The intercropping of crop species or varieties that have high arable capability is a promising technique for increasing crop production

Maize-legume intercropping achieves yield advantages by improving leaf functions and dry matter partition

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Intercropping can obtain yield advantages, but the mechanism of yield advantages of maize-legume intercropping is still unclear. Then, we explored the effects of cropping systems and N input on yield advantages in a two-year experiment.

Straw incorporation and nitrogen reduction effect on the uptake and use efficiency of nitrogen as well as soil CO2 emission of relay strip intercropped soybean

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Intercropping can increase crop N uptake and reduce carbon emissions. However, the effects of straw incorporation and N reduction on N use and carbon emissions in intercropping are still unclear.

Gravity Reduced Nitrogen Uptake via the Regulation of Brace Unilateral Root Growth in Maize Intercropping

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Water, nutrient, light, and interspecific facilitation regulation of soil physicochemical properties and root morphology modulate nitrogen (N) uptake in cereal and legume intercropping systems.

Effect of shade stress on lignin biosynthesis in soybean stems

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2018
To clarify how shade stress affects lignin biosynthesis in soybean stem, two varieties, Nandou 12 (shade tolerant) and Nan 032-4 (shade susceptible) grew under normal light and shade conditions (the photosynthetically active radiation and the ratio of ...

Diversity of the Seedborne Fungi and Pathogenicity of Fusarium Species Associated with Intercropped Soybean

Pathogens, 2020
Maize/soybean relay strip intercropping has been widely practiced in Southwest China due to its high productivity and effective application of agricultural resources; however, several seedborne diseases such as seedling blight, pod and seed decay are ...

Coordination of Density and Nitrogen Fertilization Improves Stalk Lodging Resistance of Strip-Intercropped Maize with Soybeans by Affecting Stalk Quality Traits

Agriculture, 2023
To ensure yield in strip-intercropped maize with soybeans (SM), it is crucial to plant at a density comparable to that of monoculture maize (MM). This requires reducing spacing by more than half, increasing intraspecific competition, and altering stalk ...

iTRAQ protein profile analysis of soybean stems reveals new aspects critical for lodging in intercropping systems

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
Soybean is often intercropped with maize, sugarcane, and sorghum. Because of the shade coming from the latter, the soybean stem lodging is often a very serious problem in intercropping systems.

Changes in the Density and Composition of Rhizosphere Pathogenic Fusarium and Beneficial Trichoderma Contributing to Reduced Root Rot of Intercropped Soybean

Pathogens, 2022
The dynamic of soil-borne disease is closely related to the rhizosphere microbial communities. Maize–soybean relay strip intercropping has been shown to significantly control the type of soybean root rot that tends to occur in monoculture. However, it is
