The present study evaluated the influence of different N application rates and planting density on the yield and N utilization efficiency of direct seeded rape during the 2016–2017 and 2017–2018 growing seasons. The three N application rates including 108 kg N ha−1, 144 kg N ha−1 and 180 kg N ha−1 were laid out into main plots while planting density including 15.0 × 104, 22.5 × 104, 30.0 × 104 and 37.5 × 104 plants ha−1 respectively into sub-plots. The results showed that suitable planting density was the premise to gain high rapeseed yield and the contribution of planting density to rapeseed yield was small when it surpassed a certain value. The highest yield in the two growing seasons was achieved at 144 kg N ha−1 with planting density of 30.0 × 104 plants ha−1. The rapeseed yield increased linearly as N uptake of the seed part increased, but at high planting density, there was no increase in yield with the increase N uptake of non-seed parts (stem + husk) when rapeseed yield exceeded a certain value. High planting densities raised shoot N uptake and N transfer to rapeseed seeds with the increase of density and N utilization efficiency was also improved. The too much N application resulted in more N accumulation in non-seed parts without increasing production. Under the same target yield, the increased planting density can save 32.4–65.7% of N fertilization compared with the conventional planting density. The combination of different N fertilization rates and planting densities is helpful to increase rapeseed yield. The best N management strategy is to achieve high yield and reduce the environmental risk to reduce the N fertilization at suitable high density. © 2022 Friends Science Publishers","PeriodicalId":13769,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47306426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study reports the characterization of two multifunctional bacterial strains Bacillus sp. SG36 and Bacillus sp. SG42, which have the potential not to promote the growth of plants in soil under stress due to reactive yellow 2 (RY2) dye but also the capability to cope with this dye through its decolorization. The strains were isolated from a rhizospheric soil repeatedly contaminated with colored textile wastewaters. Both the strains had optimal RY2 decolorization potential at slightly alkaline pH (7.5) and even in the presence of significant amount of NaCl (50 g L-1) in the medium. The strains harbor the phosphorus solubilization and indole acetic acid production potentials in concurrence with decolorization of RY2. In a pot experiment, the strains SG36 and SG42 were found to significantly promote the growth (Shoot/root length, shoot/root fresh weight) of mung bean (Vigna radiate) in non-contaminated and RY2 contaminated soils in parallel with RY2 decolorization in the soil. © 2022 Friends Science Publishers","PeriodicalId":13769,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43610421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was no significant difference among the isolates in terms of growth inhibition for any of the active ingredients tested (α = 0.01). The C. falcatum isolates showed almost similar sensitivity to various fungicides. The active ingredients varied in relation to fungitoxicity. Doses that inhibited 50% of C. falcatum growth were calculated as a percentage of resazurin reduction due to various fungicides.

The variety is reported to have a broad-spectrum resistance against BPH, through the action of multiple genes and quantitative trait loci (QTL) including Bph3, Qbph3, Qbph4 and Qbph10. The present study was carried out to validate the effectiveness of those genes against Malaysian BPH population. The study was conducted using an F2 segregating population which was obtained from a cross between Rathu Heenati and a Malaysian commercial variety, MR219. Plant damage score was used to estimate the degree of plant tolerance, while the amount of honeydew excretion was used to measure the level of antibiosis. The gene presence in an individual plant was determined based on the segregation pattern of the flanking microsatellite markers of the respective reported genes. Results confirmed the role of Bph3 and the three other QTLs in conferring resistance against the Malaysian biotype of BPH.

The chicken samples were divided into four groups after inoculation of E. coli and L. monocytogenes separately: control group (without treatment), 1% chitosan nanoparticle treatment group, 0.5% REO microemulsion treatment group, and 0.5% REO + 1% chitosan microemulsion treatment group. Chicken samples were dipped into the treatments for 15 days of refrigerated storage at 4°C. All groups were kept refrigerated, and bacterial counts were taken on days 0, 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15. Chitosan nanoparticle and REO microemulsion with/without chitosan were spherical shape and showed a narrow size distribution of 23.98 ± 0.83, 34.24 ± 2.2 and 28.01 ± 1.36 nm with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.86, 0.33 and 0.54, respectively indicating that greater homogeneity was achieved.

This study determined phosphorus content and uptake as a phosphorus fertilizer effect on different horticultural media. Lettuce developed and grew better on deacidified peat. Based on this study, it can be concluded that struvite is a phosphorus fertilizer with great potential and warrants further testing. A significant increase in lettuce head mass, number of leaves and rosette width under the influence of struvite was found compared to control conditions. The increase in rosette mass compared to the control was approximately 54%. The width of the rosette increased by circa 32% due to the use of Phosgreen compared to the control and by 3% compared to superphosphate.

Alternative non-chemical control strategies are being investigated to produce safe food. The main objective of this research was to test the activity of metabolites from Chaetomium cupreum CC3003 in the form of crude materials and nanoparticles to control and induce immunity to Phytophthora palmivora causing rot of durian var. Monthong. The results showed that P. palmivora proved to be pathogenic to durian var. Monthong. C. cupreum CC3003 acted as an antagonist and P. palmivora was confirmed as the pathogen by morphological and molecular genetic identification. Effective doses (ED50) of CC-E, CC-H and CC-M crude metabolites for spore inhibition were 60, 97 and 140 mg.kg-1, respectively. The research findings found that the diameters of nano CC-E, nano CC-H and nano CC-M were 534, 499 and 537 nm, respectively. The nano CC-E, nano CC-H and nano CC-M demonstrated antifungal activity against P. palmivora with ED50 of 11, 13 and 16 mg.kg-1, respectively. The nanoparticles at low concentrations were more effective than crude metabolites at high concentrations. Nano-CC-E used to treat seedlings of durian resulted in the production of scopoletin which served as an immunity agent or elicitor against rot disease of durian. It is concluded that active metabolites derived from C. cupreum significantly inhibited P. palmivora and induced immunity through phytoalexin production. © 2022 Friends Science Publishers","PeriodicalId":13769,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41919584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current study evaluated the effective exposure time to kill the Sitophilus oryzae (L.), reared on two different diets viz., wheat and maize under six Carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. Modified atmospheres (MA) contained 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50% CO2 by volume at ambient temperature, respectively. Twenty S. oryzae adults, along with a 20 g diet, were released in each airtight exposure chamber (150 mL capacity). A measured quantity of CO2 gas (99.9%) was released in exposure chamber by the injection syringe from gas cylinder. Mortality data were recorded after 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h. The mortality rates varied between the insect cultures reared on maize and wheat diets. S. oryzae, reared on a wheat diet, showed higher mortality after exposure to all CO2 concentrations as compared to the insect culture reared on the maize diet. At 45% CO2concentration, maximum mortality (100%) was observed after 120 h in case of maize reared insects and (100%) after 96 h in case of wheat reared S. oryzae. The results revealed that Carbon dioxide, as an eco-friendly approach, may be used as the best alternative method to minimize the pest infestation in stored products to avoid insecticide resistance development in stored grain insect pests. The Carbon dioxide is not included in the category of toxic gases and has no detrimental or residual effect in the stored grains. © 2022 Friends Science Publishers","PeriodicalId":13769,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49535340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
