Chickpea seed quality is highly susceptible to mechanical damage during handling and to rapid deterioration under postharvest storage. Atmospheric pressure Non-Thermal Plasma (NTP) has shown positive effects on seed quality in several species, but it...

Soybeans are widely used in agro-industrial sectors, and global demand for this crop continues to rise. After harvest, however, soybean seeds often lack the appropriate moisture content for storage, making drying a common practice under changing clim...

Agricultural research has accelerated in recent years, but farmers often lack the time and resources to conduct on-farm experiments, as most of their efforts are devoted to crop production. Seed classification provides essential insights for seed qua...

Sprouts are gaining popularity among consumers worldwide due to their high nutritional properties. A comparative evaluation of novel and environmentally friendly pre-sowing seed treatment techniques was conducted to enhance wheat sprout production. P...

Bambara groundnut is an underutilized legume with significant potential for enhancing nutrition and food security. However, limited knowledge of its seed systems hinders the development of targeted interventions. This study assessed the Bambara groun...

Soybean seed production in low-altitude subtropical environments in Paraguay is constrained by the antagonism between achieving high grain yields and high physiological seed quality, a relationship governed by the Genotype x Environment x Management...

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) is a multipurpose perennial plant with growing interest as a source of nutrients for both human and animal consumption. Despite its recognized nutritional potential, limited research has addressed how agronomic prac...

Drought is a major abiotic stress that compromises seed germination, seedling establishment, and subsequent crop productivity, thereby threatening agricultural sustainability and food security. Developing effective seed-based strategies is therefore...

Efficient and climate-resilient Sorghum bicolor L. cultivation is increasingly important under Central European conditions. This study evaluated two hybrids across two locations in 2023–2024 with row spacings of 25, 45, and 75 cm and four sowin...

Given the reduced resilience of the Amazon rainforest due to deforestation, identifying high-quality genetic markers for the propagation of native species is crucial for forest regeneration. This study investigated metabolic dynamics during Brazil nu...
