Climate change is projected to increase the incidence of severe drought in many regions,
potentially requiring selection for different traits in crop species to maintain productivity under …

Drought during the formative stages of a plant’s growth triggers a sequence of responses to
maintain optimal growing conditions, but often at the expense of crop productivity. Two field …

Application of nanotechnology in agriculture has been expanded to improve crop production.
The impact of nanomaterials (NMs) on factors that influence the survival and function of …

One ofthe options forthe restoration ofsoil resource is through the incorporation of legumes
into the cropping system because legumes have relatively short maturity penod and can …

Unknown to many, the Philippines is host to a few remaining accessions of the underutilised
and understudied cereal foxtail millet (Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv.). We collected together …

A study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of actinomycetes on the growth and
yield of upland rice. Five previously screened actinomycetes for its growth promoting abilities: …

Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.), a member of the grass family (Poaceae), is an
economically important crop grown globally. A major threat to sugarcane production is prolonged …

A greenhouse study was conducted to characterize the drought response of eight high-yielding
sugarcane varieties at tillering stage using polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000) induced …
