Respons Pertumbuhan Bibit Kelapa Sawit Terhadap Bioherbisida Saliara Di Pembibitan Awal, Vira Irma Sari, Apriandi Bintang Tambunan, Sylvia Madusari Aug 2021

Respons Pertumbuhan Bibit Kelapa Sawit Terhadap Bioherbisida Saliara Di Pembibitan Awal, Vira Irma Sari, Apriandi Bintang Tambunan, Sylvia Madusari

Jurnal Kultivasi

Keberadaan gulma pada pembibitan kelapa sawit dapat menurunkan kualitas bibit. Pengendalian gulma di pembibitan awal harus dilakukan secara dengan tangan (hand weeding), karena bibit dapat mati akibat aplikasi herbisida. Aplikasi bioherbisida saliara (Lantana camara) pada bibit kelapa sawit (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) dapat menjadi alternatif pengendalian gulma yang ramah lingkungan dan mengurangi tenaga kerja. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Kebun Percobaan 1 Politeknik CWE, pada November 2019 sampai Februari 2020. Percobaan disusun dalam Rancangan Acak Kelompok, dengan perlakuan: kontrol (tanpa aplikasi bioherbisida), Ekstrak Lantana camara 1%, 2%, dan 3%. Setiap perlakuan diulangi sebanyak tiga kali. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Bioherbisida Lantana camara …

Two challenges that the global wheat industry is facing are a lowering nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) and an increase in the reporting of wheat-protein related health issues. Sulphur deficiencies in soil has also been reported as a global issue. The current study used large-scale field and glasshouse experiments to investigate the sulphur fertilization impacts on sulphur deficient soil. Here we show that sulphur addition increased NUE by more than 20% through regulating glutamine synthetase. Alleviating the soil sulphur deficiency highly significantly reduced the amount of gliadin proteins indicating that soil sulphur levels may be related to the biosynthesis of proteins involved …

Cover crops are considered an integral component of agroecosystems because of their positive impacts on biotic and abiotic indicators of soil health. At present, we know little about the impact of cover crop types and diversity on the organic carbon (OC) contents of different soil aggregate-size classes. In this study, we investigated the effect of cover plant diversity on OC contents of different soil aggregates, such as macro- (<2000–500 µm), meso- (<500–250 µm), and micro-aggregates (<250 µm). Our experiment included a total of 12 experimental treatments in triplicate; six different monoculture treatments such as chickling vetch (Vicia villosa), crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum), hairy vetch (Vicia villosa), field peas (Pisum sativum), oilseed radish (Raphanus sativus), and mighty mustard (Brassica juncea), and their three- and six-species mixture treatments, including one unplanted control treatment. We performed this experiment usingdeep pots that contained soil collected from a corn-soybean rotation field. At vegetative maturity of cover plants (about 70 days), we took soil samples, and the soil aggregate-size classes were separated by the dry sieving. We hypothesized that cover crop type and diversity will improve OC contents of different soil aggregate-size classes. We found that cover plant species richness weakly positively increased OC contents of soil macro-aggregates (p = 0.056), whereas other aggregate-size classes did not respond to cover crop diversity gradient. Similarly, the OC contents of macroaggregates varied significantly (p = 0.013) under cover crop treatments, though neither monoculture nor mixture treatments showed significantly higher OC contents than the control treatment in this short-term experiment. Interestingly, the inclusion of hairy vetch and oilseed radish increased and decreased the OC contents of macro- and micro-aggregates, respectively. Moreover, we found a positive correlation between shoot biomass and OC contents of macroaggregates. Overall, our results suggest that species-rich rather than -poor communities may improve OC contents of soil macroaggregates, which constitute a major portion of soil systems, and are also considered as important indicators of soil functions.

Response Of Cover Crops To Phytopythium Vexans, Phytophthora Nicotianae, And Rhizoctonia Solani, Major Soilborne Pathogens Of Woody Ornamentals, Milan Panth, Anthony L. Witcher, Fulya Baysal-Gurel

Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Faculty Research

Management of plant diseases is a subject of concern for researchers as well as growers. Different management practices are being developed and used to combat the rising number of plant pathogens, which threaten nursery crop production. Use of cover crops for sustainable management of soilborne diseases is being explored as an alternative strategy to the chemicals. However, the potential threat of these cover crops acting as a secondary host of these devastating soilborne pathogens has not been described. We studied the response of the major cover crops being used by woody ornamental growers in the Southeastern United States to Phytopythium …


Enhancing Our Understanding Of Plant Cell-To-Cell Interactions Using Single-Cell Omics, Sandra Thibivilliers, Marc Libault Aug 2021

Enhancing Our Understanding Of Plant Cell-To-Cell Interactions Using Single-Cell Omics, Sandra Thibivilliers, Marc Libault

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Plants are composed of cells that physically interact and constantly adapt to their environment. To reveal the contribution of each plant cells to the biology of the entire organism, their molecular, morphological, and physiological attributes must be quantified and analyzed in the context of the morphology of the plant organs. The emergence of single-cell/nucleus omics technologies now allows plant biologists to access different modalities of individual cells including their epigenome and transcriptome to reveal the unique molecular properties of each cell composing the plant and their dynamic regulation during cell differentiation and in response to their environment. In this manuscript, …


Tandem Duplicate Expression Patterns Are Conserved Between Maize Haplotypes Of The Α-Zein Gene Family, Preston Hurst, James C. Schnable, David R. Holding Aug 2021

Tandem Duplicate Expression Patterns Are Conserved Between Maize Haplotypes Of The Α-Zein Gene Family, Preston Hurst, James C. Schnable, David R. Holding

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Tandem duplication gives rise to copy number variation and subsequent functional novelty among genes as well as diversity between individuals in a species. Functional novelty can result from either divergence in coding sequence or divergence in patterns of gene transcriptional regulation. Here, we investigate conservation and divergence of both gene sequence and gene regulation between the copies of the α-zein gene family in maize inbreds B73 and W22. We used RNA-seq data generated from developing, self-pollinated kernels at three developmental stages timed to coincide with early and peak zein expression. The reference genome annotations for B73 and W22 were modified …
