The crop yield is fundamentally dependent on the environment in which it is grown. One of the major challenges for cultivar recommendation is the genotype by environment interac- tion when the performance ranking of genotypes over environments is not constant. The identification of cultivars with high adaptabil - ity and stability to the growing conditions is an option to deal with this fact. The objective of the present study was to assess the yield stability and adaptability of cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.) genotypes under multi environmental conditions in Mozambique. The trials were established over two years (2014/15 and 2015/16) in Namialo, Cuamba and Balama, in a total of six environments. The plots were established in a randomized complete block design with three replicates of eighteen treatments. The stability and adaptability were assessed using the AMMI (Additive Main Effect and Multiplicative Interaction) multivariate method. The results showed that the most productive new genotype in terms of seed cotton yield was IP63. Among the introduced new genotypes, the Brazilian IMACD 06-6798 were classified as the most stable followed by the other Brazilian IMA1 08-3917 and the Turkish BA 919 compared to the local CIMSAN1 and the Zambian Churedza. The results suggest that the genotypes IMACD 06-6798, IMA1 08-3917 and BA 919 may be recommended for cultivation in Mozambique, since they presented an acceptable adaptability and potential stability.

J Agron Agri Sci 2: 014. Abstract Vertical farming saves land, space, water, produces no weed, pest or disease issues and ecofriendly. In vertical towers, vegetables can be grown indoors and outdoors all year round in short time with less effort, care and greater harvest yield. The objective of this study was to compare the effect of two nutrient blend solutions on the total yield, fresh weight and dry weight of four varieties of lettuce namely Bibb, Leaf lettuce, oak leaf and red salad. The study was conducted in the fall of 2017 in a hoop house at the Tennessee State University organic farm. Organic seeds were directly planted unto 2.5 cm rock wool cubes, in an indoor vertical grow tower. Two concentrations of nutrient blend solution A (2:0:0) and B (0-1-3) evaluated. Indoor vertical towers were spaced 0.9m from each other. At planting, an initial volume of 400mL and 200mL of nutrient blend solution A and B was added into 20 gallons of water to fill the tower garden reservoir. Subsequently, Lettuce plants in tower 1 received 400mL of the nutrient blend solution while lettuce plants in tower 2 were treated with 200mL of nutrient as needed throughout the growing season. Treat- ment and variety not their interaction had an effect on the growth of the lettuce plants. Yield (fresh wt/g) and dry weight of the Lettuce varieties varied significantly vary from one another. Plant yield was generally higher in the 200mL volume. Fresh and dry weight of red salad bowl lettuce variety with 200mL volume concentration was found to be significantly higher than that of all other varieties grown with the 400mL volume nutrient blend volume. The preliminary study suggest that the grow tower system is a viable alternative to growing lettuce vertically on land and half concentration of nutrient solution (NPK) is optimal for yield performance.","PeriodicalId":239731,"journal":{"name":"Agronomy & Agricultural Science","volume":"2011 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114867821","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}
