Long-term cropping systems' effects on maize grain yield and yield stability in semiarid conditions
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2017)
Knowledge of specific crop responses to crop rotation as affected by soils, climate and fertilisation is required for the selection of appropriate tillage and crop management strategies for improved crop production. In ...
Mercury content in agricultural soils (Vojvodina Province, Serbia)
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2017)
The Vojvodina Province in northern Serbia is well known for its intensive field crops production. Over 90 % of total arable land, which represents more than 1500.000 ha, is used for field or vegetable crop production. A ...
Correlations between soil characteristics and radioactivity content of Vojvodina soil
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
During the years 2001 and 2010, the content of U-238, Ra-226, in K-40 and Cs-137 in agricultural soil and soil geochemical characteristics were measured on 50 locations in Northern Province of Serbia - Vojvodina. The ...
Analysis of oilseed rape stem weevil chemical control using a damage rating scale
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDRape stem weevil (Ceutorhynchus napi Gyll.) and cabbage stem weevil (C. pallidactylus Marsh.) can cause significant yield losses to oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.), and chemical control is often needed to protect ...
Status of Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) production in the worldwide and in the Republic of Serbia
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2017)
Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) is pseudo-cereal, honey and medicinal plant. Buckwheat is rich in carbohydrates, protein, contains all the B complex vitamins, especially niacin. Of the minerals rich in manganese, ...
Changes in soil carbon stock under the wheat-based cropping systems at Vojvodina province of Serbia
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2017)
The aim of this study was to assess the changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) stock in relation to the carbon (C) input from nine wheat-based cropping systems and untilled grass. The SOC pool ranged from 32.1 to 49.4 Mg ...
Relationship between hybrid performance and genetic variation in self-fertile and self-sterile sugar beet pollinators as estimated by SSR markers
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2017)
Sugar beet hybrid varieties are produced through the crosses between male sterile lines and the multigerm pollinators. The uniformity of pollinators used for hybrid crosses depends on the presence of self-sterility (S-s) ...
Traits related to drought tolerance in tomato accessions of different growth type and fruit size
(Pakistan Agricultural Scientists Forum, 2017)
This study was undertaken to investigate the possibilities for breeding drought tolerant tomatoes of different growth type and fruit size. The effects of drought were analyzed and the relationships among the observed traits ...
Correlation analysis of the natural radionuclides in soil and indoor radon in Vojvodina, Province of Serbia
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The most dominant source of indoor radon is the underlying soil, so the enhanced levels of radon are usually expected in mountain regions and geology units with high radium and uranium content in surface soils. Laboratory ...
Response of wheat plants under post-anthesis stress induced by defoliation: II. Contribution of peduncle morpho-anatomical traits and carbon reserves to grain yield
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2017)
Assimilated carbon during vegetative and early reproductive growth in wheat is temporarily stored in stem internodes and leaf sheaths (LSs), and can later be remobilized and transported to developing grain. The present ...
