High Stubble Height Enhances Ratoon Rice Yield by Optimizing Light–Temperature Resource Utilization and Photothermal Quotient

Plants
Ratoon rice is a sustainable planting model, and its yield is closely linked to the light and temperature use efficiency. The photothermal quotient (PQ), a key parameter for evaluating the light and temperature use efficiency, significantly influences ...

Opportunities for Improving Waterlogging Tolerance in Cereal Crops—Physiological Traits and Genetic Mechanisms

Plants, 2021
Waterlogging occurs when soil is saturated with water, leading to anaerobic conditions in the root zone of plants. Climate change is increasing the frequency of waterlogging events, resulting in considerable crop losses.

Impacts of tillage on soil properties and interactions with drainage when reseeding permanent pasture

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Effect of three‐way interaction between soil tillage, drainage and depths on soil properties in reseeded pastures. Abstract Background Grassland reseeding typically requires intensive tillage. This disrupts soil nutrient dynamics, especially under varying drainage conditions. Methods This study evaluated the combined effects of tillage legacy, drainage

Waterlogging stress alters the structure of sugar beet rhizosphere microbial community structure and recruiting potentially beneficial bacterial

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Waterlogging has been shown to have a significant inhibitory effect on plant growth. However, the response mechanisms of the soil environment of sugar beet seedlings under waterlogging conditions still need to be fully understood.

Assessing the Sustainability of Community‐Managed Irrigation Systems Using Multicriteria Analysis and Sustainability Indicators in Northern Ethiopia: A Holistic Approach

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reservoir‐based irrigation schemes (RBISs) have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of moisture stress and improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in semi‐arid regions. However, many RBISs perform below expectations. A multistage expert elicitation approach and an indicator‐based Sustainability Assessment of Food and ...

Effects of rapeseed meal replacing fishmeal on growth, body composition, amino acid digestion and transport, lipid metabolism, and immunity of black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus)

Aquaculture Reports
To assess the feasibility of replacing dietary fishmeal (FM) with rapeseed meal (RSM), a 120-day feeding trial was conducted on juvenile black carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus) with an initial body weight of 5.49 ± 0.02 g.

Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective irrigation scheduling is essential for improved water management in irrigated areas, with soil moisture monitoring recognized as one of the most effective methods. However, challenges such as the high cost of sensors and the difficulties in monitoring large areas hinder their practical application, particularly for smallholder ...
