Winter wheat yield prediction is critical for optimizing field management plans and guiding agricultural production. To address the limitations of conventional manual yield estimation methods, including low efficiency and poor interpretability, this...

The screening of poplar varieties that demonstrate tolerance to low nitrogen (N) represents a promising strategy for improving nitrogen-use efficiency in trees. Such an approach could reduce reliance on N fertilizers while mitigating environmental po...

The simplex strategies of fertilizer management and problems caused by simultaneous precipitation and high-temperature (SPH) climate were the main factors that led to yield loss and quality decline in the continuous cropping of tea chrysanthemum (Den...

Potassium fertilizer management is critical for achieving high yields of Korla fragrant pear, yet current practices often overlook or misuse potassium inputs. In this study, a two-year field experiment (2023–2024) was conducted with 7- to 8-yea...

Sorghum is a versatile crop that serves as a major source of food, feed, fodder and biofuel globally. Lignin content in sorghum affects multiple important traits, including lodging resistance, forage digestibility and the efficiency of bioenergy prod...

In wet subtropical environments, perennial groundcovers are common in horticultural plantations to protect the soil from erosion. However, there has been little investigation into whether seeding annual cover crops into the perennial groundcovers pro...

Micronutrient deficiencies adversely affect human health and pose a significant global threat. Enhancing the accumulation of micronutrients in the edible parts of crops through genetic breeding is a promising strategy to mitigate micronutrient defici...

Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis is a cornerstone of ecosystem health, facilitating nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and biodiversity maintenance in trees. Optimizing Pinus armandii–Tuber indicum mycorrhizal synthesis enhances the ecological stabili...

Salinity stress is a primary abiotic constraint limiting global crop productivity, with progressive soil salinization inducing growth inhibition and physiological dysfunction in plants. Although melatonin (MT) has been extensively documented to enhan...

Plant growth regulators (PGRs) enhance crop stress resistance but their roles in microbial-mediated phosphorus cycling within intercropping systems are unclear. Thus, We conducted a two-year field study using corn (Zea mays L. cv. Denghai 605) and so...
