Statistical process control applied to mechanized peanut sowing as a function of soil texture
PLoS ONE, 2017 The successful establishment of agricultural crops depends on sowing quality, machinery performance, soil type and conditions, among other factors. This study evaluates the operational quality of mechanized peanut sowing in three soil types (sand, silt ...

Root Meristem Maintenance Mechanisms are Key to Plant Defense Against Nanoplastics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Small nanoplastics can disrupt cell integrity and inhibit cell division in meristem zone of plant root. The plants can counteract the cell damage by upregulating genes associated with root meristem maintenance and increasing auxin accumulation by PIN2 transport inhibition.

Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Sowing performance by a metering mechanism of continuous flow in different slope conditions [PDF]
Engenharia Agrícola, 2016 One of the reasons for the success of a productive culture is the correct sowing. Therefore, the seeds must be properly dosed, deposited and not damaged by the metering mechanism of the seed drill. So, the aim of this study was to evaluate in a simulator

Growth studies with hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Horticultural Science at Massey University [PDF]
, 2007 The effect of latitude, sowing date and density on yield, height and growing time were studied by sowing two varieties of hemp for seed at three sites in New Zealand. Predation and poor germination hampered results.
