Abstract:

Abstract Seed yield and quality of four spring pea cultivars (Pisum sativum L.) were evaluated when subjected to deficient, optimal, and excessive irrigation levels. Irrigation at 100% of the estimated optimal irrigation amount (IR) resulted in the greatest seed yields, whereas irrigation at 60% or 140% IR reduced yields by 468 and 222 kg·ha−1, respectively. Yield reductions for individual cultivars were as large as 694 and 350 kg·ha−1 for deficient and excessive irrigation, respectively. Increased yields for the 100% IR treatment resulted from increases in pods per plant and seeds per pod. Ir

Abstract:

High seed quality is required to obtain optimal plant stands and to achieve maximum yield potential. Onion seeds are commonly coated and treated with an insecticide and fungicide to control early season insects and diseases. The seed treatments may cause phytotoxicity in standard germination tests, and thus reduce the percent germination of a seed lot. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of seed quality on seed storage, stand establishment and yield. Two seed lots of two long-day onion varieties were pelleted and treated with the seed treatments Trigard and Pro-Gro. Standard

Besides, the need for farmers’ behavioural change, enhanced coordination, and communication at the local level has not received adequate attention.

Incarvillea sinensis var. przewalskii has attracted great attention because of the anticancer value of its alkaloids and the potential use of the species for ecological restoration. However, the scarcity of high-quality seeds has significantly hindered the cultivation and efficient utilization of this species. Understanding how seeds respond to maternal environmental conditions is crucial for developing high-yield and top-notch seed accessions, but the available knowledge in this area is limited. Here, we determined the effect of shading treatments on seed development, seed quality, and yield.
