Enriched rice husk biochar superior to commercial biochar in ameliorating ammonia loss from urea fertilizer and improving plant uptake

Heliyon
Adding value to agricultural leftovers and turning them into biochar is a viable way to replenish soil nutrients and boost crop productivity. To further validate the efficacy of enriched rice husk biochar, an incubation study and a pot experiment were ...

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leaf angle (LA) is a crucial agronomic trait influencing planting density and crop yield. Previous research highlighted the importance of cellular variations in the ligular region for determining LA, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.

ZmWRKY29 Transcriptionally Represses ZmRBOHC to Attenuate ROS Production and Facilitates Gibberella Stalk Rot Susceptibility in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.

Multisite Field Evaluation of Oil Accumulation and Agronomic Performance in Grain and Sweet Sorghums Engineered for Lipid Hyperaccumulation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oil sorghum (OS) has been developed by engineering grain (TX430) and sweet (Ramada) genetic backgrounds to accumulate triacylglycerols (TAG) in vegetative tissues as an energy‐dense feedstock for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and other biofuels. This study evaluated two TX430 OS lines (TxHO‐2, TxHO‐3) and two Ramada OS lines (RmHO‐1, RmHO‐2)

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

Potassium Deficiency and Hormone Signalling in Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Potassium (K or K⁺) is a vital macronutrient that influences numerous physiological processes related to plant physiology and development. Recently, there is a growing focus on enhancing K+‐use efficiency (KUE) to ensure optimal plant growth, especially in K+ deficient soils.

Hemp seed counting and morphometric analysis method comparison

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The USDA ARS Hemp Germplasm Laboratory recently acquired over 800 hemp accessions (Cannabis sativa L.). Variation in hemp seed size characteristics is needed to develop quantitative standards to support the transition of hemp grain into a commodity.

Corn response to broiler litter total cleanout frequency

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Broiler (Gallus gallus domesticus) litter is a valuable nutrient source for corn (Zea mays L.) production in the southeastern United States; however, differences in total cleanout frequency of broiler houses may influence the agronomic value of broiler litter. A 3‐year field study was established on Decatur silt loam and Malbis sandy clay loam
