Perspective Chapter: Rootstock-Scion Interaction Effect on Improving Salt Tolerance in Fruit Trees

, 2023
Salt stress is a sever threat to global agriculture. Improving salt tolerance is a problematic task due to the large number of characteristics involved. Graft technique is a potential substitute to breeding and interesting practices to salt tolerance since it unites a scion and rootstock of two genotypes.

Improving Peach Fruit Yield and Quality Using Foliar Application of Nano Chelated Zinc and Seaweed Extract (Spirulina platensis): A Multivariate Analysis Approach

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
The combined application of nano‐zinc and Spirulina extract enhances peach yield, fruit firmness, and nutritional quality. An optimal treatment significantly improves fruit set (+107.5%), TSS, and vitamin C content. ABSTRACT The twenty‐seven identical peach trees were exposed to different levels of a Nano Chelated fertilizer contain 12% Zn and ...

Enhancing the vase life of cut roses through spectral optimisation during greenhouse cultivation

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 656-673, May 2026.
Here, we examined three red‐to‐blue (R:B) light emitting diode (LED) ratios (90:10, 80:20 and 70:30) in two cut rose cultivars. All treatments enhanced photosynthesis, with 90:10 showing the strongest effects—raising chlorophyll, carotenoids, anthocyanins and carbohydrate levels, and extending vase life by up to 30%.

Farmer‐Led Strategies for Water Conservation in the Urmia Lake Basin, Iran

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 2, Page 840-855, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the urgent issues of water scarcity and limited farmer livelihoods in the Urmia Lake basin. To address these challenges, we apply the Governance, Autonomy, Integration, and Needs orientation (GAIN) methodology. Our participatory approach revealed that farmers prioritised actionable measures for water management, yield ...

Analysis of Bacterial Wilt Management Strategies From the Dynamic Perspective of Environmental Adaptation Approaches of Ralstonia solanacearum

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review reframes bacterial wilt management by analysing control strategies through the lens of the pathogen's evolutionary, physiological and ecological adaptations. This mechanism‐based approach links pathogen traits to control efficacy, guiding the development of more durable solutions.
