Selenium biofortification of pea (Pisum sativum L.) microgreens through seed priming: Effects on agronomic performance and nutritional quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem. Agronomic biofortification of microgreens through seed nutripriming is a promising approach to enhance Se intake. Microgreens, comprising nutrient‐dense foods that can be produced year‐round, are ideal targets for biofortification and may help alleviate malnutrition. This

Supplemental irrigation by sprinkling increases delta sugar beet yields

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1963
Use of sprinklers to supplement the usual subbing method of irrigation increased October-harvested sugar beet production by 8.4 tons per acre. In addition to alleviating drought conditions, sprinkling increased the plant uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus from this highly organic soil.

Contrasting CO2‐response strategies in Pardina lentils: Yield maximization in a commercial cultivar and seed composition adjustment in a landrace

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Assessing crop's responses to elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2) is crucial for global food security. This study examines the impact of eCO2 (700 μmol mol−1) on the cultivars of lentil (Lens culinaris), local Pardina Verde Rayada lentil (PVRL), and commercial Pardina lentil (PL) in terms of the productivity and nutritional composition ...

Effects of deficit irrigation and biostimulants on melon productivity and quality in semi‐arid conditions

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Water scarcity and soil salinization are major constraints to irrigated agriculture in semi‐arid regions, affecting crop productivity and fruit quality. Combining deficit irrigation with biostimulant application has emerged as a promising strategy to improve water use efficiency and plant stress tolerance.
