Glyphosate-tolerant cotton cultivars were evaluated for tolerance to Belonolaimus longicaudatus in field experiments conducted from 2004 to 2005. Field trials were arranged in a split-plot design that included treatment with four levels of 1, 3-dichloropropene (0.0, 13.9, 27.8, and 41.7 1 a.i./ha) to establish a range of population densities of B. longicaudatus. Six cotton cultivars (early-to-m...

Tropospheric ozone (O3) is an important abiotic stress to plants and its rising concentration adversely affects crop yield. The studies associated with differential responses of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivars chronic elevated O3 are lacking need be further explored for the recognition resistant as adaptive strategy. In present research, differentially heat sensitive were treated (am...

in order to develop a high yielding rice cultivar with optimum cooking quality, a cross was conducted between two rice cultivars khazar, high yielding and resistant to blast disease and daylamani tarom, with good cooking quality in 1990. forty pure lines were selected and compared for high grain yield in 1996. ten selected lines together with two check cultivars dasht and onda were tested in ad...

Reproduction of reniform nematode Rotylenchulus reniformis on 139 soybean lines was evaluated in a greenhouse in the summer of 2001. Cultivars and lines (119 total) were new in the Arkansas and Mississippi Soybean Testing Programs, and an additional 20 were submitted by C. Overstreet, Louisiana State Extension Nematologist. A second test of 32 breeding lines and 2 cultivars from the Clemson Uni...

Climate change increases the drought-affected areas, which challenge breeders to develop adaptive and drought-tolerant rice cultivars. The study aimed determine heritability, gene action controlling of various traits in upland F4 populations derived from cross, Sileso (high yielding drought tolerant) × Ciherang (early maturing), obtain high-yielding early-maturing lines. populations, along with...

Drought is one of the most frequent abiotic stresses limiting the productivity and geographical distribution of sugarcane culture. The use of drought-tolerant genotypes is one approach for overcoming the effects of water stress. We conducted a comparative study to identify gene expression profiles under water stress in tolerant sugarcane roots. Two different cultivars, 1 drought tolerant (RB867...

In the present work, isoflavonoid phytoalexin production in response to the application of salicylic acid in cotyledons of four common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars (SA) was evaluated. The time-course and dose-response profiles of the induction process were established by quantifying the isoflavonoids by HPLC. Cotyledons of anthracnose-resistant cultivars induced by SA produced substantia...

A replicated field study was conducted from 1972 to 1980 involving soybeans grown in 2-, 3-, and 4-year rotations with maize in soil infested with Meloidogyne incognita. Monocultured soybeans were maintained as controls. Cropping regimes involved root-knot nematode susceptible and resistant soybean cultivars and soybeans treated and not treated with nematicides. Yields of susceptible cultivars ...
