Agronomic traits determinants of superior varieties and millable cane productivity of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) on dryland, Indonesia
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Indonesia is one of the sugar-producing countries in the world, with most of the planting area shifted to dryland, sub-optimal. During the development of production, it is necessary to select varieties that are suitable ... -
Germination characteristics of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) affected by temperature variation
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Germination was essential in preparation for the subsequent few sorghum growth cycles, but increasing the temperature was a major limiting factor. Temperature change effect, provide information on appropriate sorghum ... -
Response of regulation of resistance genes, reactive oxygen species, and antioxidant enzymes to salicylic acid treatments in drought tolerant rice
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Drought is one of the most important issues in crop production which may disrupt physiological processes and biochemical metabolism in rice plants, including the emergence of plant resistance gene expression such as ... -
Red seaweed liquid fertilizer increases growth, chlorophyll and yield of mungbean (Vigna radiata)
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)The demand for chemical fertilizers in Bangladesh is increasing by the day. Seaweed extracts are high in a variety of bioactive substances that can be used as a biostimulant as an alternative to agricultural plants. To ... -

(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Food Estate is a government program as a solution to meeting food demand. However, in order to meet food needs, environmental impacts must be considered. The study objective was to investigate the impacts of shallot ... -
Review of agronomic and genetic diversity of Moroccan rice varieties, and their resistance to blast disease (Pyricularia oryzae)
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)The study on agronomic and genetic characteristics of rice has given us scope to select varieties with desirable characteristics to mitigate various constraints. Rice (Oryza sativa) is the staple food for half of the ... -
Osmotic stress tolerance in forage oat varieties (Avena Sativa L.) based on osmotic potential trials
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Forage oats (Avena sativa L.) are globally important for milk and meat production, and, to a lesser extent, for the human diet. In Mexico, oats are a strategic crop, occupying the fourth place in cultivated area, only ... -
Study of the effect of chromium on the germination parameters of Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-gracium L.) and Lens (Lens culinaris)
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Soil contamination by heavy metals is a global environmental problem. This contamination affects agricultural crops in the area concerned. In the present study, chromium, which is a heavy metal, is evaluated for its ... -
Germination performance and seedling characteristics of chili pepper after seed priming with leaf extract of Moringa oleifera
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Germination is the most critical stage of the plant life cycle since it is a principal component of seedling establishment and survival. The germination of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum) seeds is typically slow and ... -
Agronomic and physiological response of maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids to plant density in the dry and wet Middleveld of Eswatini
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)One of the factors limiting yield of maize in Eswatini is use of non-optimum plant density for the different maturity group of maize hybrids in different agro-ecologies. Thus, an experiment was conducted at Malkerns (wet ... -
Resistance of local rice progeny to ferrous iron toxicity between locations, seasons, and salt application in tidal lands
(Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2023)Rice is the main food in Indonesia that grows in various agroecosystems. The challenge is ferrous iron toxicity (FIT), wherein adaptive varieties with high yield potential be required to support increased production. The ...
