The goal of this research carried out at the experimental facility of the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Zagreb in 2015/2016, 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 was to determine the influence of seeding rate and topdressing with organic fertilizers on yield and yield components in einkorn (Triticum monococcum subsp. monococcum) and emmer (Triticum dicoccon) populations collected in the Croatian region of Slavonia. The research comprised four seeding rates: 100, 150, 200, and 250 grains per m2; topdressing with organic fertilizers (Fertil Supernova 12.5 N and Ilsamin N90); and a control (no topdressing). Einkorn populations achieved a higher yield of hulled …

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important cereal crop around the globe. Scarcity of water is one of the major abiotic factors reducing yields in this crop. The development of maize varieties with stress-tolerant traits is time-consuming and laborious work. There is a strong need to develop techniques that could have the effect of reducing irrigation requirements and mitigating waterstress conditions. Biopriming (seed priming with bacterial inoculation) is a newly emerging, simple, and easily adaptable strategy to mitigate drought stress for enhanced crop production. The current trial was executed using a randomized complete block design with factorial arrangements during the …
