Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] genetic diversity is limited because domesticated soybean has undergone multiple genetic bottlenecks. Its progenitor, the wild soybean [Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc], has not undergone the same intense selection and is much more genetically diverse than domesticated soybean. However, the agronomic importance of diversity in wild soybean is unclear, and its weedy ...

Intensive management is crucial for optimizing hardwood plantation success, and nitrogen (N) nutrition management is one of the most important practices in intensive management. Because management of short-rotation woody crop plantations is a mixture of row-crop agriculture and plantation forestry, we tested the usefulness of an agronomic budget modified for deciduous perennial trees for estima...

Plant architecture is an important agronomic trait, and improving plant architecture has attracted the attention of scientists for decades, particularly studies to create desirable plant architecture for high grain yields through breeding and culture practices. However, many important structural phenotypic traits still lack quantitative description and modeling on structural-functional relativi...

Background: Agronomic practices like supplemental irrigation, nipping, foliar nutrition of macro and micro nutrients growth regulators are important for realizing the maximum yield potential in transplanted Pigeonpea. Hence present study was carried out combination with agronomic production management via micronutrients, on pigeonpea.
 Methods: The experiment using a split plot design sixt...

Decision support systems can help improving nutrient management in agricultural and forest ecosystems. We suggest that the practical components of nutrient management are 1) Diagnosis, 2) Prediction, 3) Economic analysis, and 4) Recommendations. Nutrient management and agronomic information for perennial crops such as peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) revealed important differences from annua...

in order to investigate the effect of rhizobium bacteria, mycorrhiza fungi and foliar application of urea on qualitative and quantitative traits of soybean an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. the experiment included six treatments as: control (c), rhizobium bacteria (r), rhizobium bacteria + mycorrhiza fungi (r+m), rhizobium bacteria + f...
