Identification of new sources for earliness and low grain moisture at harvest through maize landraces’ test-cross performance
(Basel : MDPI, 2022)
Early maturity is a highly important factor in the interrelations between yield, grain moisture, and plant density, contributing to cost-efficient maize production. Landraces conserved in gene banks present a promising ...
Exposure to high concentrations of cadmium which delay development of Ostrinia nubilalis Hbn. larvae affected the balance of bioelements
(Springer, 2022)
All processes involved in metal homeostasis must be coordinated to provide sufficient, but not toxic, concentrations of important bioelements, and to minimize detrimental effects of toxic metals. Our previous studies dealing ...
Ectomycorrhizal fungi modulate biochemical response against powdery mildew disease in Quercus robur L.
(Basel : MDPI, 2022)
In light of climate change, pedunculate oak (Q. robur L.) was marked as the most threatened European tree species. Pedunculate oak is particularly jeopardized by powdery mildew disease caused by Erysiphe alphitoides. We ...
Deciphering the Epigenetic Alphabet Involved in Transgenerational Stress Memory in Crops
(Basel : MDPI, 2021)
Although epigenetic modifications have been intensely investigated over the last decade due to their role in crop adaptation to rapid climate change, it is unclear which epigenetic changes are heritable and therefore ...
First Report of Fusarium equiseti as the Causal Agent of Seed Rot of Matthiola longipetala in Serbia
(Amer Phytopathological Soc, St Paul, 2020)
Matthiola longipetala (Vent) DC, commonly known as "night-scented stock" or "evening stock" is the most widely cultivated species of the genus Matthiola in the family Brassicaceae. It is a common garden flower, available ...
Metal- and organ-specific response to heavy metal-induced stress mediated by antioxidant enzymes’ activities, polyamines, and plant hormones levels in Populus deltoides
(Basel : MDPI, 2022)
Besides anthropogenic factors, climate change causes altered precipitation patterns that indirectly affect the increase of heavy metals in soils due to hydrological effects and enhanced leaching (i.e., Cd and Ni), especially ...
The Response of Maize Lines to Foliar Fertilizing
(Basel : MDPI, 2020)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two foliar fertilizers applied on five maize (Zea maysL.) lines. Fertilizers were applied at different growth stages of maize, during three consecutive years ...
New insights into the genetic diversity of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris isolates from winter oilseed rape in Serbia
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2021)
Winter oilseed rape has recently been described as a new host for the phytopathogenic bacteriumXanthomonas campestrispv.campestris(Xcc) in Serbia. In order to provide information about the genetic structure of this bacterium's ...
Non-chemical weed control for plant health and environment: Ecological integrated weed management (EIWM)
(Basel : MDPI, 2022)
Herbicide application has long been considered the most efficient weed control method in agricultural production worldwide. However, long-term use of agrochemicals has numerous negative effects on crops and the environment. ...
The effect of long term exposure to cadmium on Ostrinia nubilalis growth, development, survival rate and oxidative status
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd., 2020)
In this study the effect of long term exposure to cadmium (Cd) on Ostrinia nubilalis larval growth, development, survival rate and oxidative status was analyzed. Newly hatched first instar - L1 larvae were reared on a Cd ...
