Agriculture has been an integral part of the human ecosystem. However, traditional farming methods require a lot effort and are very time-consuming. Farm tilling is one most labor intensive operations in agriculture. Manual tiling fields strenuous task while tractors incur high capital along with heavy fuel consumption costs. This low-cost portable motor-operated tiller machine one-stop modern ...

Abstract The ideal plant architecture is a new strategy for super high yield breeding of rice. Tiller angle an important character A reasonable tiller key factor the and achieving high-yield breeding. Molecular design most potential direction crop in future. development accurate efficient functional molecular markers target trait genes crucial TAC1 ( Angle Controlling ) gene primary that regula...

Based on theoretical analysis and numerical calculations, this study systematically investigated the changes in rice tillering dynamics simulation of stem tiller growth during stage using farm water level as a regulation index for irrigation drainage. pit testing, results show that both flooding drought suppress output have certain compensating effect following rehydration. Heavy period reduced...

Recent studies of highly branched mutants of pea, Arabidopsis and rice have demonstrated that strigolactones (SLs) act as hormones that inhibit shoot branching. The identification of genes that work downstream of SLs is required for a better understanding of how SLs control the growth of axillary buds. We found that the increased tillering phenotype of fine culm1 (fc1) mutants of rice is not re...

In a glasshouse experiment, different tiller categories (main, young primary, and old primary) of two Guinea grass cultivars, Mombaça and Tanzânia, were (14)C-labelled to investigate C translocation between tillers. In both cultivars, young primary tillers retained less radiocarbon (79%) than main (86%) and old primary (87%) labelled tillers, suggesting that the photosynthetic capacity of the y...

A virtual prototype of oblique rotary tilling based on SPH(Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics) was developed. Digital simulation and field test of oblique rotary tilling were conducted. The digital simulation suggested that soil mainly was torn to failure during oblique rotary tilling. Therefore, oblique rotary tilling could save energy. The given power consumption comparison of digital simulation a...

Chlorophyll content is one of the most important traits controlling crop biomass and economic yield in rice. Here, we isolated a spontaneous rice mutant named thermo-sensitive chlorophyll deficit 1 (tscd1) derived from a backcross recombinant inbred line population. tscd1 plants grown normally from the seedling to tiller stages showed yellow leaves with reduced chlorophyll content, but showed n...
