Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal inoculation increases the bioavailability of zinc and iron in wheat grain

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Bread wheat is an important crop that supplies calories and nutrients to the global population. Enhancing the concentrations and bioavailability of essential micronutrients in wheat is crucial for human nutrition, and we investigated whether arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can contribute to the biofortification of wheat.

Interactions of rice seedlings with bacteria isolated from rice roots

Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 1999
The interactions between two groups of rice endophytic bacterial strains and several rice cultivars were investigated. Various strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii , originally isolated from rice plants grown in Egypt, comprise one group.

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

Design and Development of Rice Pot-Seedling Transplanting Machinery Based on a Non-Circular Gear Mechanism

Applied Sciences
Transplanting rice pot seedlings without damaging the roots, which promotes early tillering, is an effective measure to enhance rice yield and quality. This study aimed to obtain the mechanized-transplanting trajectory and attitude of rice pot seedlings ...

Anoxia Tolerance and Sugar Level in Roots and Coleoptiles of Aerobically Germinated Rice

Plant Production Science, 2011
The root and coleoptile growth of aerobically germinated rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings was suppressed by anoxic stress, but the suppression was more conspicuous in roots than in coleoptiles.

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Characterization of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Roots Versus Root Pulling Resistance as Selection Indices for Draught Tolerance [PDF]

, 1989
A technique described as Root Pulling Resistance (RPR) was used to evaluate genotypic differences in root growth and development of 50 rice germplasm accessions and cultivars. Several root characteristics in rice are associated with drought tolerance and

Thirty years of glyphosate‐resistant crops and weeds: Current situation and future prospects

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Since 1996, when the first glyphosate‐resistant crop was commercialized and the first resistant weed was reported, resistance has expanded globally. This review analyzes emergence patterns across weed species, crops, regions, resistance mechanisms, and herbicides.

Allelochemicals Released from Rice Straw Inhibit Wheat Seed Germination and Seedling Growth

Agronomy
Recently, returning rice straw to soil has become a common problem in wheat production because it causes decreased wheat seedling emergence. Allelopathy is an important factor affecting seed germination.
