Microclimate modification and insect pest exclusion using agronet improve pod yield and quality of french bean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
French bean [Phaseolus vulgaris (L.)] is among the leading export vegetable in Africa, mostly produced by small-scale farmers. Unfavorable environmental conditions and heavy infestations by insect pests are among the major constraints limiting production

A Virus‐Inducible E3–RLCK–MADS Module Coordinates Suppression of Plant Immunity and Fertility in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Viruses often hijack host developmental programs to promote infection, but the mechanistic links between reproductive regulation and antiviral immunity remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify a virus‐triggered hierarchical degradation cascade that links antiviral immunity and fertility regulation in rice. We show that the rice grassy

Primary study on the development of special seed coating agents and their application in rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivated by direct seeding

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2005
Physical properties of five basic seed coating agents were examined in the experiment. The most desirable basic coating agent was selected out for cultivation of rice by direct seeding, followed by addition of different active compounds and various ...

Transposase‐Assisted Donor Tethering Boosts Large‐Fragment HDR in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A transposase‐assisted donor tethering strategy is developed to enhance homology‐directed repair in plants. By recruiting donor DNA to double‐strand breaks and synergizing with repair pathway reprogramming and transcription‐coupled donor design, this system markedly improves large‐fragment targeted insertion efficiency, providing a robust platform for ...

Effects of Storage Temperature on Carbohydrate Content and Seedling Quality of Cabbage Plug Seedlings.

open access: yesEnvironment Control in Biology, 1999
The effects of storage temperature on plant growth and carbohydrate content during low-temperature storage and on photosynthesis and growth of transplants after the end of storage were studied in cabbage plug seedlings. Plants were stored in the dark for 14 d at 5, 10 and 15°C.

Adapting to Changing Rainfall and Developing Off‐Farm Employment: Implications for the Adoption of Direct Seeding in Rice Production

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the main staple food for more than half of the world's population and the income from rice is an essential source for livelihoods of millions of households. We examine whether direct seed in rice production is an adaptation of rice farmers to rainfall changes and farm labor scarcity.

Tree nursery and seed procurement characteristics influence on seedling quality in Oromia, Ethiopia

open access: yes, 2017
Most tree nurseries in Ethiopia overemphasize mass seedling production to the expense of seedling quality. The study aimed at evaluating nursery characteristics and tree seed procurement approaches, and how these influenced seedling quality in eight ...

Examining the Impact of Row Planting on Labor Use for Sustainable Food Production Among Maize Farmers in Rural Ghana

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers are reverting to traditional production methods due to the high opportunity costs and unintended consequences of new technologies. This study focuses on row planting technology, which is labor‐intensive and slow without mechanized operations.
