in this study digital image correlation (dic) technique combined with a high speed video system was used to predict movement of particles in a water model. comparing with particle-image velocimetry (piv) technique, it provides a low cost alternative approach to visualize flow fields and was successfully employed to predict the movement of particles in a water model at different submergence dept...

Due to rainfall, closed weeding of paddy fields and other reasons, submergence stress often occurs during the germination emergence stages direct-seeded rice (Oryza sativa L.), which leads intensified anaerobic respiration, accelerated consumption stored nutrients, difficulty in seeds, uneven seedlings varying yields. Recent advances understanding phytohormone interaction regulation signaling p...

AP2/ERF-type transcription factors regulate important functions of plant growth and development as well as responses to environmental stimuli. A rice AP2/ERF transcription factor, OsEREBP1 is a downstream component of a signal transduction pathway in a specific interaction between rice (Oryza sativa) and its bacterial pathogen, Xoo (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae). Constitutive expression of OsE...

Abstract Background Crop yield is dependent on climate conditions, which are becoming both more variable and extreme in some areas of the world as a consequence global change. Increased precipitation flooding events cause important losses due to waterlogging or (partial) submergence crops field. Our ability screen efficiently quickly for varieties that have increased tolerance important. Barley...

Severe yield loss due to various biotic stresses like bacterial blight (BB), gall midge (insect) and Blast (disease) and abiotic stresses like submergence and salinity are a serious constraint to the rice productivity throughout the world. The most effective and reliable method of management of the stresses is the enhancement of host resistance, through an economical and environmentally friendl...
