Identifying seedling root architectural traits associated with yield and yield components in wheat [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2017 Background and Aims: Plant roots growing underground are critical for soil resource acquisition, anchorage and plant-environment interactions. In wheat (Triticum aestivum), however, the target root traits to improve yield potential still remain largely ...

Influence of agroecological conditions on root yield of celeriac [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2006 What we have in the present paper are the results of analysis on how the amount of precipitation, temperature, type of soil, and drip irrigation can affect celeriac root yield. The soil type had a considerable influence on yield.

Breeding for root yield in alfalfa
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1991 Winter survival of alfalfa (Medicago sauva L.) has often been associated with the size of the root system but breeding for a larger root system has never received much attention.

Effect of parsley seed treatment on root yield [PDF]
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2003 As parsley seed vigour is known to be low, a 3-year field study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of seed priming and pelleting. Hardening and solid matrix priming (SMP) were applied to two varieties (Cukrowa and Berlińska). Both methods of seed

Effects of fungicides and insecticides on mildew, viruses and root yield of swedes
Plant Pathology, 1977 Fungicides, applied to control powdery mildew (Erysiphe cruciferarum Opiz ex L. Junell) on swedes (Brassica napus L. var. napobrassica Peterm), increased root yield by up to 66, 57 and 45 per cent in 1974, 1975 and 1976 respectively.

Planting density and yield of cassava roots [PDF]
Revista Ciência Agronômica, 2013 In Mata Fresca, an area located on the border of the states of Rio Grande do Norte and Ceara, in Brazil, small farmers have a source of income from the production of cassava roots, using planting densities of around 5,000 plants ha -1 . This procedure might be helping to limit higher yields of the roots, since some studies have shown that it is ...

Assessment of sugar beet root yield by AMMI analysis [PDF]
Genetika, 2017 Sugar beet cultivars have different responses in various environments, such as different locations, years, mineral nutrition treatments or the combination of these factors, due to genotype ? environment interaction. Additive main effect and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) is one of the most commonly used multivariate methods for analysis ...

Effect of Powdery Scab Root Galls on Yield of Potato [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2015 Powdery scab of potato, caused by Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea, has increased in incidence since 1981 to become a major concern for potato production in the Columbia Basin of south-central Washington and north-central Oregon. Disease symptoms consist of pustules on the tuber surface and wart-like galls on roots, stolons, and tubers.

Shoot yield drives phosphorus use efficiency in Brassica oleracea and correlates with root architecture traits [PDF]
, 2009 The environmental and financial costs of using inorganic phosphate fertilizers to maintain crop yield and quality are high. Breeding crops that acquire and use phosphorus (P) more efficiently could reduce these costs.
