After the implementation of the gully land consolidation, the CV of each index in the gully showed a decreasing trend, and the distribution of each index in the gully tended to be uniform. With the increase of remediation years, SOC content, soil enzyme activity and maize first yield showed a trend of decrease and then increase, and the change trend of each index was slightly different at gully head, the middle of gully and the gully outlet, the change is significant.

The climate parameters include cumulative daily sunshine hours (S), mean daily temperature (T), cumulative daily precipitation (P), mean daily relative humidity (H), daily highest and lowest temperatures (Th and Tl), days of high temperatures (DT ≥ 30℃ and DTh ≥ 35℃) and low temperature (DTl < 15℃). Results showed that: (i) Late-rice yield was significantly increased quadratically from 5621.33 kg hm2 in 2010 to 6333.65 kg hm2 in 2019 with a mean of 5959.2 kg hm2.

The climate parameters of S, T and Th in the boot-heading stage were significantly positively correlated with late-rice yield, and the optimal regression models were all in quadratic types.

Four common species of seed-borne fungi namely, Penicillium decumbens, Penicillium namyslowskii, Lichtheimia corymbifera, and Aspergillus niger were found to grow in choy sum in southern China. A novel finding was that P. decumbens had the greatest inhibition of the germination of Choy sum seeds, resulting in a non-germination rate exceeding 62.8%. The existing standardized seed sterilization treatment failed to completely kill P. decumbens, so a way to nondestructively identify and filter out P. decumbens–infected seeds wereevolved is urgently needed. Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy–based partial least squares–discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model achieved a discrimination accuracy of 95% in on-line nondestructive detection of P. decumbens–infected choy sum seeds.

In the present study, the soil of Aktau region in Xinjiang, China was collected to build a remote sensing based inversion model for identifying soil salinity hazards. Results showed that Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), and Difference Vegetation Index (DVI) were correlated (P < 0.01) with the model inversion, having correlation coefficients of -0.735, -0.858, and -0.774, respectively. All these were suitable for the construction of the soil salinity inversion model where the optimal parameters of model accuracy were above 85% and prediction results were accurate credible and consistent with the measured data.

By adding different additional elements, it was found that the growth of lateral buds was longer and stronger on the medium of 1/2 MS + 3.0 mg/l BA + 0.1 mg/l NAA + 4.0 mg/l Gln or 1/2 MS + 3.0 mg/l BA + 0.1 mg/l NAA + 1.0 mg/l AgNO3.

Based on the data of Shaanxi Province from 2000 to 2021, in the present study, the main factors affecting the price fluctuation in Shaanxi Province was explored by using factor analysis method. Eight indexes including corn yield, production cost, disaster-affected area, disposable income of rural residents, disposable income of urban residents, corn demand, wheat price index and consumer price were selected as factors affecting corn price fluctuation. Results showed that the disaster area and corn demand were the main factors affecting the corn price fluctuation in Shaanxi Province, and the disposable income of urban and rural residents had little impact on the corn price fluctuation. Governments and industry groups can therefore take preventive measures to limit the impact of major climate events on corn markets and economies.
