Organic Matter Quality and Microbial Activity in Soils Managed With Brachiaria Succession

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although succession systems and brachiaria improve soil quality, gaps remain in microbial community dynamics, activity, and soil organic matter stocks. Methods The objective was to evaluate the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stocks of soil organic matter fractions and their distribution, molecular characterization, enzyme activity ...

Maize leaf endosphere microbiome was affected by domestication and shows patterns consistent with microbial dysbiosis

Frontiers in Microbiomes
BackgroundWhether domestication, post-domestication spread, and breeding affected the maize leaf endosphere microbiota is poorly understood despite the well-known effects of those processes on the crop’s genetics and responses to the environment.

Index validation for ratio of maize hybrids upper ear attachment to plant height thereof (Zea mays L.)

Plant Varieties Studying and Protection, 2014
Methodological rationale is given (procedure - morphological description) for ‘plant’ as a quantitative characteristic - ‘plant: ratio of upper ear attachment height to plant height’ for maize hybrids (Zea mays L.), as well as parameters of grading for ...

Two-year field data on neonicotinoid concentrations in guttation drops of seed treated maize (Zea mays) [PDF]

, 2018
We present neonicotinoid concentrations in guttation drops of commonly used maize (Zea mays) cultivars, germinated from seeds coated with active substances (a.s.): i) imidacloprid (IMD), ii) clothianidin (CTN) and iii) thiamethoxam (THM) over two growing

Assessing plant water status: Part 1 – Classical methods

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract As a result of the changing climate, water scarcity poses a significant threat to crop and pasture production. Although soil water content can indicate drought, its measurements often provide limited spatial resolution and are weakly correlated with plant water status, producing misleading drought assessments.

Improving Soil Health and Crop Yields Through Conservation Agriculture and Nutrient Management in Central India

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maintaining soil health and crop productivity in the semi‐arid Vertisols of central India poses a significant challenge under intensive agricultural practices. This 6‐year field study assessed the combined impact of different tillage methods, maize‐based crop rotations, and nitrogen management on soil's physical, chemical, and biological ...

Morphologic and Transcriptomic Response to Weed Pressure in Multiple Maize (Zea mays L.) Selections and Teosinte (Zea mays L. ssp parviglumis) Lines [PDF]

, 2016
Sweet corn (Zea mays L. convar. saccharata var. rugosa) and modern dent variants (field maize, Zea mays L. indentata) have varying degrees of weed tolerance (ability to maintain yield under weed stress).

Explainable, Uncertainty‐Aware Machine Learning for Maize Land Suitability and Climate Resilience in Lorestan Province, Western Iran

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is strategically important in Iran, yet its cultivation in the semi‐arid Zagros is constrained by limited and variable water, heat stress and heterogeneous soils, while conventional suitability assessments are deterministic, rarely validated spatially and provide no measure of confidence.

Trade‐Offs Between Maize Productivity Improvement and Topsoil Salinization Risk Under Shallow Burial Drip Irrigation in Semi‐Arid Regions

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drip irrigation is widely used to conserve water and maintain crop production in water‐limited regions. However, how contrasting drip irrigation systems shape soil water‐salt movement, water and nitrogen (N) use, and maize productivity in semi‐arid environments remains poorly understood.
