Comparative Performance of Biofertilizers on Irrigated Lowland Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Annals of Tropical Research, 2012 Biofertilizers have been claimed as an alternative source of nutrients for plants in order to increase yield and reduce the inorganic fertilizer use by 50%. Sixteen trials were undertaken nationwide covering the provinces of Ilocos Norte, Isabela, Nueva

Strategies to control tree vigour and optimise fruit production in 'Conference' pears [PDF]
, 2008 The ban on the use of chlormequat (CCC) in pear orchards in 2001 forced Dutch pear growers to look for alternative methods to control tree vigour and stimulate flower bud development and fruit production.

Plants, 2022 Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) effects on plant yield are highly variable under field conditions due to competition with soil microbiota. Previous research determined that many Bacillus velezensis PGPR strains can use pectin as a sole carbon

Modelling diverse root density dynamics and deep nitrogen uptake — a simple approach [PDF]
, 2009 We present a 2-D model for simulation of root density and plant nitrogen (N) uptake for crops grown in agricultural systems, based on a modification of the root density equation originally proposed by Gerwitz and Page in J Appl Ecol 11:773–781, (1974). A

In Silico Roots: Room for Growth
Trends in Plant Science, 2019 Computational models are invaluable tools for understanding the hormonal and genetic control of root development. Thus far, models have focused on the crucial roles that auxin transport and metabolism play in determining the auxin signaling gradient that controls the root meristem.

Chromatin Remodeling in Arabidopsis Root Growth [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2007 The basic structural unit of chromatin is the nucleosome, which consists of 146 bp of DNA wrapped around the histone octamer constituted by two molecules each of histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. Nucleosome assembly/disassembly/reassembly processes occur primarily during DNA replication and also during transcription, DNA repair and recombination.

Agronomy, 2022 A heterogeneous distribution of nutrients in the soil and the root interactions of crops coexist in agroecosystems. A ‘root splitting’ approach, i.e., splitting the root system into different nutrient compartments, was used to study nutrient ...
