Changes in peanut canopy structure and photosynthetic characteristics induced by an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus in a nutrient-poor environment

Scientific Reports, 2021
A well-developed canopy structure can increase the biomass accumulation and yield of crops. Peanut seeds were sown in a soil inoculated with an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) and uninoculated controls were also sown.

Development of a Depth Control System Based on Variable-Gain Single-Neuron PID for Rotary Burying of Stubbles

Agriculture, 2021
Rotary burying by tractor-hitched rotary tillers is a common practice in southern China for treating rice stubbles. Currently, it is difficult to maintain stable tillage depths due to surface unevenness and the residual stubbles in the field, which leads

OsLIC, a Novel CCCH-Type Zinc Finger Protein with Transcription Activation, Mediates Rice Architecture via Brassinosteroids Signaling. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
Rice architecture is an important agronomic trait and a major limiting factor for its high productivity. Here we describe a novel CCCH-type zinc finger gene, OsLIC (Oraza sativaleaf and tiller angle increased controller), which is involved in the ...

Higher leaf area through leaf width and lower leaf angle were the primary morphological traits for yield advantage of japonica/indica hybrids

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
The yield potential of japonica/indica hybrids (JIH) has been achieved over 13.5 t ha−1 in large-scale rice fields, and some physiological traits for yield advantage of JIH over japonica inbred rice (JI) and indica hybrid rice (IH) were also identified ...
