In this study, transcriptome and metabolome analyses were conducted on local common bean variety under salt stress at the sprout stage for a period of 0, 12, and 24 h. Results showed that phenylpropanoid pathways (including phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and phenylalanine metabolism) and flavonoid pathways (including flavonoid biosynthesis and flavone and flavonol biosynthesis) played an important role in controlling responses to salt stress as evidenced by analysis of differentially expression genes, common expression patterns, WCGNA, and differentially altered metabolites (DAMs) analyses. In addition, exploration of the activities of 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL), caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase (CCoAOMT), peroxidase (POD), chalcone isomerase (CHI), dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR), and flavonol synthase (FLS) further showed that phenylpropanoid and flavonoid pathways participate in plant responses to salt stress. Moreover, the phenylpropanoid pathways and flavonoid pathways were found to be potential pathways regulating plant response to salt stress based on transcriptome and metabolome analysis. The activities of 4CL, CCoAOMT, POD, CHI, DFR, and FLS revealed that these pathways are crucial to the regulation of plant responses to salt stress.

Although the inclusion of legumes in cropping systems is an essential approach for the sustainable management of farming systems and for reducing the nitrogen (N) fertilizer requirement for maize production in the long term, the effects of soybean on the sustainability of maize productivity and soil fertility are unclear in Ethiopia. Continuous cropping of maize has led to extensive degradation of soil and a decrease in crop productivity in Western Ethiopia. Thus, the study was conducted to compare the long-term impact of soybean on the sustainability of the production system in soybean–maize rotation and to monitor soil fertility dynamics in soybean–maize rotational systems. Nine different soybean–maize rotation treatments were laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The study results showed that soybean–maize rotation gave a relatively steady yield compared to the maize mono-cropping system. Soybean–maize rotation improves the productivity of component crops in cropping systems. The highest maize grain yield was recorded from soybean–maize rotation with fertilizer application for the two components (RS + M+) and soybean–maize rotation without fertilizer application for the soybean component (RS-M+), respectively. Soybean grain yield was significantly correlated with OC (%), OM (%), and TN (%), whereas maize yield was adversely correlated with soil parameters, except soil pH. Overall, the knowledge we can contribute to the readers from this study is that soybean–maize rotation plays an important role in achieving sustainable agriculture by increasing soil fertility and achieving stable soybean and maize yields and soybean should be inoculated with Rhizobium strain year after year continuously. Thus, it can be concluded that soybean–maize rotation with fertilizer applications (RS + M+) for two components can be used in maize belt areas of Western Ethiopia.</p>","PeriodicalId":54283,"journal":{"name":"Food and Energy Security","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fes3.496","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43574141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, several high-yielding, and nutrient-dense varieties of cowpea (<i>Vigna unguiculata</i> (L.) Walp), pearl millet (<i>Pennisetum glaucum</i> (L.) R. Br.), and sorghum (<i>Sorghum bicolor</i> (L.) Moench) have been developed purposely as dual-purpose (DP) varieties in SSA to meet human nutrition and livestock feed needs. This review synthesized published data on DP varieties from cowpea, pearl millet, and sorghum. Findings showed that DP crops and varieties were largely grown by smallholder farmers in a variety of soil and climatic conditions with production systems characterized by large gaps between attainable and actual crop yields which varied significantly among regions. While the grain and fodder yield of traditional varieties (TV) of cowpea averaged 700 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> and 860 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>, respectively, the reported grain yield of DP varieties was 1100 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> and 2150 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> for fodder. The average grain yield of TV millet varieties was 750 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> and 2500 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> for fodder. Similarly, average grain yield for DP millet varieties was 2000 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> and 4200 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> fodder. Dual-purpose sorghum varieties yielded greater grain (&gt;3000 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) and fodder (3500 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) compared to TV. Little data were obtained on the nutritive qualities of cowpea, millet, and sorghum DP varieties. However, DP millet varieties were reported to be more digestible than TV varieties. Furthermore, adoption of DP varieties improves fertilizer use efficiency, profitability, environmental sustainability, and resilience of the whole farm system compared to TV.
