The efficient use of genetic resources- stored in germplasm collections can be maximized if morphoagronomic and molecular information on the accessions is made available. To achieve this, a collection that is well-structured, well-curated and easily accessible (the core collection) is required. Cons...

Badung River, a primary irrigation source for the subak system in South Denpasar, has been reported to contain excessive levels of heavy metals, exceeding the standard quality for irrigation water. Corn cultivated on subak systems irrigated by this irrigation source had heavy metal residues in its r...

Aim. The introduction of new hemostatic drugs is a modern question. Using of tannins is promising especially for this segment of Pharmacy, as they are able to stop the bleeding. The purpose was to the study qualitative composition and quantitative content of tannins in Zea mays leaves and columns wi...

As the most important organ in plant photosynthesis, the leaf plays an important role in plant growth and development. Leaf senescence is associated with fundamental changes in the proteome. To research the molecular mechanisms of leaf senescence, protein expression in senescing maize ear leaves gro...

Tassel, the male reproductive organs in maize, its development is adversely affected by drought during tasseling. To determine drought tolerance mechanisms of tassel differentiation at transcriptome level, RNA-Seq was performed using RNA of early developing tassel from 10 maize inbred lines under we...

Abstract: The phytohormone auxin plays a central role in coordinating plant growth and development. GH3 is one of the three gene families that respond rapidly during auxin stimulation. Here, we report the identification and characterization of the GH3 gene family in maize. A total of 12 GH3 genes we...

Postemergence application of nicosulfuron for weed control in maize fields can cause great damage to certain maize inbred lines and hybrids. Two maize genotypes, tolerant inbred (HBR) and sensitive inbred (HBS), were found to significantly differ in their phenotypic responses to nicosulfuron, with t...

The comparative effectiveness of pre-sowing treatment of maize (Zea mays L.) seeds by different methods is not sufficiently studied in the published results of scientific research. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of pre-sowing treatment of maize seeds with ultraviolet (UV) radiation...

Maize genotypes vary significantly in their nitrogen use efficiencies (NUEs). Better understanding of early grain filling characteristics of maize is important, especially for maize with different NUEs. The objectives of this research were (i) to investigate the difference in apical kernel developme...

The purpose of the study was to identify the effect of quantitative traits on grain productivity of maize hybrids depending on moisture availability.   The study was carried out on the breeding field of the laboratory for maize breeding and seed production of the FSBSI “ARC “Donskoy” in 2020–2023. T...

The upper earshoots with higher superiority usually have higher yield potential and higher efficiency. To determine the key period for the asynchronous differentiation of superior and inferior earshoots and how hormones are involved in this process, a two-year experiment was designed using two maize...

Grain filling is the physiological process for determining the obtainment of yield in cereal crops. The grain-filling characteristics of 50 maize brand hybrids released from 1964 to 2014 in China were assayed across multiple environments. We found that the grain-filling duration (54.46%) and rate (4...

Drought is one of the most important abiotic stresses affecting maize growth and development and therefore resulting in yield loss. Thus it is essential to understand molecular mechanisms of drought stress responses in maize for drought tolerance improvement. The root plays a critical role in plants...

The objective of this study was to assess soil tillage methods by years interaction for dry matter of plant yield of maize (Zea mays L.) grown in West Poland by the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction model. The study comprised four soil tillage methods, analysed in 12 years through...

Cell wall architecture plays a key role in stalk strength and forage digestibility. Lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose are the three main components of plant cell walls, and they can impact stalk quality by affecting the structure and strength of the cell wall. To explore cell wall development dur...

Harnessing the rhizospheric microbiome, including phosphorus mineralizing bacteria (PMB), is a promising technique for maintaining sustainability and productivity in intensive agricultural systems. However, it is unclear as to which beneficial taxonomic group populations in the rhizosphere are poten...

Seed size play a significant role in maize yield production. Two maize inbred lines with distinct seed size and weight, V671 (a large-seed inbred line) and Mc (a small-seed inbred line), were investigated by RNA-seq at 14 days after pollination (DAP), when maize endosperm undergoes an active transit...
