Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Biofortification is an effective strategy to improve the micronutrient content of staple crops. However, biofortification of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) with zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) has not been adequately investigated under biochar amendment.

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Intercropping can enable sustainable intensification. In Africa, smallholder farmers rely on Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a staple food. Nevertheless, the performance of cassava intercropping emerges from management choices such as legume species selection, planting density, sowing time, and nitrogen (N) fertilisation as well as soil ...

Evaluation of Remediation Recommendations: Stakeholder Workshop 3 Ribeira Seca - Cape Verde [PDF]
, 2012 In Cape Verde, the low soil cover and inadequate practices on rain fed agricultural lands constitute major problems related to desertification. To the fragility of the land associates severe water erosion, causing tons of land to be washed away from the ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Drought is a critical challenge to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) productivity. The quantitative complexity of drought tolerance makes breeding for this trait difficult. Developing near‐isogenic lines (NILs) targeting quantitative trait locus (QTL) for 1000‐grain weight (TGW) under drought stress can effectively identify key mechanisms and genes.

DEVELOPMENT AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF TRACTOR FRONT MOUNTED PIGEON PEA STEM CUTTER [PDF]
Iranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2010 Pigeon pea or tur (Cajanus cajan L. Mills.) is one of the important pulse crops of India and ranks second to chickpea in area and production. Traditionally the harvesting of pigeon pea is done manually by sickle, which demands considerable amount of ...

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Harnessing allelic variation to improve the protein content and amino acid profiles of food legumes
Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract The growing demand for safe and nutritious foods places unprecedented demands on agriculture. Widespread malnutrition in the Global South could be minimized by including legumes in predominantly cereal‐based cropping systems. Regular legume consumption provides multiple health benefits to humans, positively impacts soil health and microbiome ...
