A Review of Soil-Improving Cropping Systems for Soil Salinization [PDF]

, 2019
A major challenge of the Sustainable Development Goals linked to Agriculture, Food Security, and Nutrition, under the current global crop production paradigm, is that increasing crop yields often have negative environmental impacts.

Assessing soil and native high Andean grassland quality under grazing: A case study from the wet Puna of Peru

Grassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract High Andean grasslands are vulnerable to changes in their nutritional quality and carbon sequestration capacity, especially in grazing systems. This study evaluated soil quality and native grasses by measuring carbon, physicochemical parameters, and the nutritional quality of predominant species in the wet Puna of Junín, Peru.

Transcriptome and metabolome analyses reveal molecular insights into waterlogging tolerance in Barley

BMC Plant Biology
Waterlogging stress is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting the productivity and quality of many crops worldwide. However, the mechanisms of waterlogging tolerance are still elusive in barley.

Does cyclic water stress damage wheat yield more than a single stress?

PLoS ONE, 2018
The occurrence of water stress during wheat growth is more frequent due to climate change. Three experiments (cyclic drought, cyclic waterlogging, and cyclic drought plus waterlogging) were conducted to investigate the effects of mild and severe cyclic ...

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

BREEDING FOR WATERLOGGING TOLERANCE IN SUGARCANE

Journal of Sugarcane Research, 2019
Excess moisture stress/waterlogging stress is one of the major constrains in sugarcane agriculture. About 2.2 Lakh hectares sugarcane is getting affected by waterlogging across the sugarcane growing states in the country.

An assessment of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes under saline and waterlogged compacted soil conditions, II: leaf ion concentrations [PDF]

, 2013
A pot experiment was conducted to study effects of salinity and waterlogging under soil compaction conditions on grain yield and yield components of wheat. Treatments were arranged in a factorial layout assigned to a randomized complete design with three

Effects of soil moisture on microhabitat selection of two fossorial amphisbaenian reptiles from contrasting environments

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Extreme events expected under climate change (prolonged drought or torrential rains) alter soil conditions, yet their effects on fossorial vertebrates remain understudied. We tested substrate selection across moisture levels in two amphisbaenians from contrasting climates: Blanus cinereus (Iberian temperate forest) and Trogonophis wiegmanni (North ...

Understanding Waterlogging Stress in Cowpea: An Overview

Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology
Waterlogging stress is a significant threat to the global agriculture, resulted in the 33% reduction in the average crop yield. It is predicted that annual daily precipitation will increase by 14% by 2050 in IPCC report. Increase in precipitation increases waterlogging condition. This stress causes a cascade of physiological and morphological responses

OsbHLH064, an IVb bHLH Transcription Factor, Regulates Iron Homeostasis and Enhances Grain Fe Accumulation in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. The maintenance of Fe homeostasis relies on sophisticated regulatory networks where bHLH transcription factors play a key role. However, how these factors coordinate to regulate this vital process is not fully understood.
