Genetic improvement of grain yield and bread-making quality of winter wheat over the past 90 years under the Pannonian Plain conditions
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
Studies on genetic gains in a historical set of wheat cultivars mostly refer to grain yield and the associated agronomical and physiological traits, while less attention is paid to the improvement of wheat quality. In order ...
The effect of heat stress on some main spike traits in 12 wheat cultivars at anthesis and mid-grain filling stage
(Czech Academy Agricultural Sciences, Prague, 2021)
High temperature decreases winter wheat grain yield by reducing the grain number and grain weight. The effect of heat stress on spike grain distribution and weight of individual grains within spike and spikelets was less ...
Sustainable Organic Corn Production with the Use of Flame Weeding as the Most Sustainable Economical Solution
(Basel : MDPI, 2021)
Flame weeding is an alternative method of weed control. Essentially, it is a supplement to other physical and mechanical processes used in organic production. Weed control costs have a large share of the total cost of crop ...
Genetic and Genomic Tools in Sunflower Breeding for Broomrape Resistance
(Basel : MDPI, 2020)
Broomrape is a root parasitic plant causing yield losses in sunflower production. Since sunflower is an important oil crop, the development of broomrape-resistant hybrids is the prime breeding objective. Using conventional ...
Weed composition and control in apple orchards under intensive and extensive floor management
(Inst Investigaciones Agropecuarias, Chillan, 2020)
Weed control in apple tree (Malus domestica [Suckow] Borkh.) orchards continues to be a major problem. Weeds compete with fruit trees, which is manifested in production quality and quantity. The aim of this study was to ...
Assessment of the habitat conditions of a rare and endangered inland saline wetland community with Bolboschoenus maritimus (L.) Palla dominance in Southeastern Europe: the effects of physical-chemical water and soil properties
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
Continental inland saline wetlands are among the most endangered habitats in Europe. In the Danube-Tisza-Danube canal network (Serbia, Southeastern Europe), which is one of the largest canal networks on the continent, the ...
Phenotypic variability of wheat and environmental share in soil salinity stress [3S] conditions
(Basel : MDPI, 2022)
Through choosing bread wheat genotypes that can be cultivated in less productive areas, one can increase the economic worth of those lands, and increase the area under cultivation for this strategic crop. As a result, more ...
Plant uptake and soil retention of radionuclides and metals in vineyard environments
(Springer, 2021)
In most European countries, each adult citizen drinks on average more than 20 L of wine every year. Three popular wine-growing areas (Aleksandrovac, Topola, and Orahovac) in Serbia were studied in order to investigate the ...
Origin and diversity study of local common bean (Phaseolus vulgarisL.) germplasm from Serbia: phaseolin and phenotyping approach
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
Phenotypic diversity of common bean (Phaseolus vulgarisL.) landraces and reference cultivars were evaluated based on variability of twelve traits, chosen according to international descriptor list. Landraces were collected ...
Seed priming with zinc improves field performance of maize hybrids grown on calcareous chernozem
(Pavia : PagePress Publications, 2021)
Delivery of micronutrients to plants through seed priming
improves seedling vigour and increases crops yields. Two-year
filed trial was conducted in Pančevo, Serbia, with aim to study the
effect of seed priming with ...
