In this study, using a typical acid-producing fungi, Aspergillus niger (A. niger, CGMCC 23272), we investigated the capacity of organic acid production under different lead (Pb) concentrations. A. niger has a high Pb tolerance, which can maintain the...
Soybean Glicine max. (L.) Merr. is one of the most major food crops. In some areas, its responses to different climates have not been well studied, particularly in tropical countries where other crops are more dominant. Accordingly, we adopted the SI...
Smallflower umbrella sedge (Cyperus difformis L.) is an invasive weed, and infestations of C. difformis are increasing in rice (Oryza sativa L.) fields in China. Bensulfuron-methyl is a widely used sulfonylurea herbicide that inhibits the acetolactat...
Plant protection drones are commonly encountered in agricultural fields. Their downwash airflow can agitate flexible crops (e.g., rice and wheat) or even cause wind-induced losses. To predict the wind-induced responses of rice under wind fields, here...
Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, is one of the most challenging diseases to control in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) and other crucifers globally. Ethanedinitrile (EDN) is a promising fumigant shown to be effective against var...
Livestock farming produces high volumes of animal slurry that can be sanitized using low-cost treatments by pH adjustment, reducing pathogen contamination, and promoting slurry valorization as a safe fertilizer. This work aims to evaluate the impact...
One of the most severe winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) diseases is Fusarium head blight (FHB). It is believed that selection for resistance to FHB is better in high disease pressure environments, for which various methods of artificial inoculatio...
On the Loess Plateau of China, water shortage and serious soil erosion are the key factors that restrict local agricultural development, especially in terms of crop yield. In order to expound the effect of treatment with organic manure in root growth...
Heavy metals (HMs) stress, particularly lead (Pb) stress, is one of the most hazardous environmental stresses that can negatively affect plants’ growth, yield, and quality. Therefore, the effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs; 50 mg L&mi...
Powdery mildew (PM) of wheat caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is among the most important wheat diseases, causing significant yield and quality losses in many countries worldwide. Considerable progress has been made in resistance breeding t...
