AB  - The variations in temperature and rainfall patterns under climate change are threatening crop production systems, and optimizing fertilization practices is a prerequisite for sustainable cereal production. This two‐year field study investigated the effects of eight treatments (T1: P60K60; T2: P60K60 + Nmin spring; T3: P60K60 + N40autumn + Nmin spring; T4: P60K60 + N60spring; T5: P60K60 + N100spring; T6: P60K60 + N40autumn + N60spring + Zn; T7: P60K60 + N60autumn + N80spring + Zn; and T8: P60K60 + N160spring + Zn) on the grain yield and quality of four divergent maize cultivars (NS‐4023, NS‐640, NS‐6010 and NS‐6030). The observations on climatic data showed substantial variations in monthly and cumulative rainfall only, which was 174 and 226 mm for 2011 and 2012, respectively, and much less than the historical cumulative rainfall of 339 mm. However, temperature during growth years showed little deviation from the historical data. The data showed that treatment and maize cultivar significantly influenced grain yield; however, grain yield remained lower in 2012 than in 2011 for each treatment and cultivar. Applying N as split doses in combination with Zn, resulted in higher grain yields than adding at once. However, the treatments and cultivars affected grain quality variables differently, including oil, thiol SH, phytate, inorganic P, soluble protein, starch, total phenol, protein, total sugars and tryptophan contents. Despite the pronounced difference in grain yields between 2011 and 2012 for each treatment and cultivar, grain quality did not always vary significantly between cultivars. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the relationships between grain yield and grain quality varied significantly during 2011 and 2012. The changes in rainfall patterns at critical growth maize stages seemed to be a more important factor than temperature in regulating the response of maize cultivars in terms of grain yield and quality to various fertilization regimes in this study.

AB  - Crop rotation is known as an eco-friendlier approach, as provides diversification in crop management systems, modifies intensive pressure on the agricultural ecosystem, utilizes various soil horizons, and prevents the establishment of specific pests and weeds. We set out here a study on the farms that have been managed over 50 years of specific continuous crop management programs. The experimental treatments were in a different management system: monoculture of maize, winter wheat, and soybean, 2-year crop rotation (winter wheat–maize) with and without chemical fertilizer, and 3-year crop rotation (winter wheat–soybean–maize) with and without chemical fertilizer and manure. We took soil samples six times from 2014 to 2017 prior to sowing and after harvesting each year. Weed seeds were extracted from soils and identified and counted by species. We, upon the data of a long term experiment of crop rotation, could conclude that crop rotations with more crops in the sequence are significantly effective in maintaining weed populations, a low-input crop production could reach a constant low population below an important damaging density, and therefore will be a more sustainable crop production while chemical fertilizers would change the soil’s chemical and structure and imbalance the plant population diversity and manures with high weed seed infestations have the potential to totally eradicate crop rotation effects, Therefore, clean manures or compost are highly recommended.

AB  - Crop root systems directly interact with soil in capturing water and nutrients. Root system architecture and growth has important functional implications for the timing and extent of soil water and nutrient extraction, yet selection for root traits in breeding programs has been limited due to the labour-intensive and costly phenotyping methods for characterizing roots in field crops. The objectives of this research were to identify root traits in key cereals grain crops (maize, sorghum and wheat) that can be potentially employed as candidate traits conferring water stress tolerance. Genotypes within these crops has large variation in different root traits. Root traits such as total root length, root length at various depths, rooting depth, numbers and area of fine roots and nodal root angle. These traits have the potential to serve as functional parameters for plant breeding programs aimed at developing genotypes with improved resource use efficiency and adaptation to adverse environments (e.g., drought stress), enhancing overall crop productivity.

aboveground plant and determines the yield via the uptake of water and nutrients in the
field. Selection of genotypes with a better developed root system is of particular
importance, because it leads to an increase in the ability to adopt nutrients, as well as
increased tolerance to drought, and thus to increase the yield and its stability. Previous
studies show that the architecture of the root system of maize, the number and length of
the roots, the angle of branching the lateral roots, and the density and length of the root
hairs in the total mass of the root show a positive correlation for the adoption of
