Abstract

Patchouli produces essential oils, which are a crucial raw material for various industries, but its main limitation is its low essential oil content and yield. Water management, integrated with the use of beneficial microorganisms, serves as an alternative strategy. This study aims to evaluate the single and dual application of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on the growth and essential oil production of patchouli under different Soil Water Content (SWC) levels. A two-factor factorial experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with three replications. The first factor was SWC levels (100, 75, 50, and 25% Field Capacity (FC)). The second factor was bioinoculant treatments (no inoculation (control), PGPR, AMF, and PGPR+AMF). The results showed that PGPR+AMF at various SWC levels improved growth and essential oil yield up to 96-190%. A reduction in growth was observed starting at 50% FC, as indicated by the number of leaves (>35%), leaf area (>44%), and plant dry weight (>32%). SWC at 75% FC resulted in 18% higher Water Use Efficiency (WUE) than 100% FC, while PGPR+AMF inoculation increased WUE up to 66%. In conclusion, maintaining SWC at 75% FC and treating the plant with PGPR+AMF inoculations optimized patchouli essential oil yield.

Abstract

This research was conducted at the Faculty of Plantation and Agrotechnology, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) from February to May 2021. The study objectives were to determine the effects of environmental factors, water limitation (WL) and high temperature (HT), on yield production and seed quality development of aerobic rice cv. MRIA 1. The seed was cultivated in a glass house (25/45°C min/max) and subjected to 3 days of WL and HT (25/40ºC 12 photoperiod) at different seed development stages [8, 14, 21, and 28 days after anthesis (DAA)] with four replications. Plants treated from 21 to 28 DAA showed tolerance to WL and HT, while the detrimental effect occurred at 8 DAA and 14 DAA. Normal germination (>90%) was obtained from the control, and the plant had reached physiological maturity at 21 and 28 DAA. As plant treated to environmental stress, the amylose concentration obtained ranges from 9 to 14%. The lowest seed longevity (p50) obtained from plants treated at 14 DAA recorded only 3 days, and the longest was from control seed obtained for 26 days. In conclusion, exposing cv. MRIA to HT and WL at late maturation stage has less effect on yield production and seed quality development.

Abstract

Hoya carnosa (L.) R. Br. propagation is conventionally less efficient, and the amount produced is low. This study aims to determine the influence of hormone type and concentration on changes in cell structure and the phase of somatic embryogenesis of the Hoya plant in vitro. The study was conducted in two stages, namely the first stage of callus induction with a combination of BAP (0.4 mg/l, 0.5 mg/l, 0.6 mg/l) and 2,4-D (5 mg/l, 6 mg/l, 7 mg/l) and the second stage of somatic embryogenesis with a combination of BAP hormones (0.5 mg/l, 1.0 mg/l, 1.5 mg/l) and IBA (0.25 mg/l, 0.5 mg/l, and 0.75 mg/l). The data were analyzed using ANOVA and further analyzed by using DMRT. Based on the results, the combination of BAP 0.4 mg/l and 2,4-D 7 mg/l hormones showed the best growth with the parameters of the appearance of callus at 23 days, callus weight 2.92 g, and embryogenic calluses formed with crumb texture and greenish-yellow color. The combination of BAP 1 mg/l and IBA 0.75 mg/l resulted in the frequency of budding emergence of 23.3 days and the number of tendrils 20.7. This treatment was able to produce 5 roots and 2 shoots.

Abstract

Soil degradation due to water erosion in arable land is a common threat to soil fertility and sustainable food production. Therefore, an accurate assessment of soil water erosion is crucial. The conventional Sobolev method for assessing water erosion shows consistent data over decades of soil erosion monitoring, which may underestimate the current impact of water erosion on soil in the dry steppe zone of northern Kazakhstan. In this study, five methods for estimating land cover loss were evaluated: Sobolev, geometric cross-sectional area calculation, photogrammetry, LiDAR surveying, and satellite imagery. The LiDAR surveying showed the greatest accuracy compared with Sobolev, with total channel volumes of 84.54 m3 and 33.21 m3, respectively. The findings of this study indicate that existing official soil erosion survey data, due to the low precision of conventional field-based and manual measurement techniques, underestimate the extent of water erosion in the steppe zone of northern Kazakhstan. These results highlight the importance of integrating advanced remote sensing and geospatial methods to monitor soil water erosion in croplands in the dryland steppe zone.

Abstract

Edamame (Glycine max L. Merr.) is a high-value crop and an export commodity with very high environmental qualification standards. Spodoptera litura and Bemisia tabaci reduce both the quantity and quality of production. Therefore, more environmentally friendly pest control methods are needed. This study evaluated several biological control agents. A field experiment was conducted using a Randomized Block Design with eleven treatments across three locations. The treatments included entomopathogenic fungi (Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae), Bacillus thuringiensis, Trichogramma sp., a botanical pesticide (1% azadirachtin), and light traps. All treatments were applied during the flowering stage. Spraying was carried out once a week, and parasitoids were released every two weeks. The results showed that pest populations changed over the observation period. The boxplot indicated that the population of B. tabaci decreased from week 4 to week 7, along with increased rainfall and enhanced effectiveness of the fungus. Treatments P9 and P10, which combined biological agents with light traps, produced highly consistent reductions in pest populations. This suggests that multiple integration of biological agents and physical traps provides stable pest suppression. Future optimization is more promising in terms of timing and long-term validation related to edamame management.

Abstract

Hoorahgrass (Fimbristylis miliacea L. Vahl.) is one of the most yield-limiting weeds in paddy fields. Farmers have reported that hoorahgrass was unaffected when sprayed with the labeled rate (18.75 g a.i./ha) of the ALS-inhibiting herbicide pyrazosulfuron-ethyl. This study was conducted to confirm the suspected hoorahgrass resistance to pyrazosulfuron-ethyl in the paddy field. Additionally, cross-resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides across five chemical families and multiple-herbicide resistance via other mechanisms of action were evaluated. Both susceptible and resistant-hoorahgrass biotypes were examined at I50 based on visual injury and GR50 based on plant height and fresh weight. The resistance level of the resistant hoorahgrass biotype was 49.91-70.16 times higher than that of the susceptible biotype. The result of cross-resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides from different chemical groups indicated that pyrazosulfuron-ethyl-resistant hoorahgrass was not controlled at the labelled rate of ethoxysulfuron, bensulfuron-methyl, metsulfuron-methyl, bispyribac-sodium, penoxsulam, pyribenzoxim and triafamone. Additionally, resistance to other herbicide mechanisms of action did not confer cross-resistance to carfentrazone-ethyl, propanil, 2,4-D dimethylammonium, and florpyrauxifen-benzyl. Therefore, farmers should alternate herbicides with different mechanisms of action to effectively control pyrazosulfuron-ethyl-resistant hoorahgrass.

Abstract

Soybean, a protein-source vegetable legume, is one of the major commodities in Indonesia, leading to intensive breeding activity. Around 120 soybean varieties have been released, with an average yield of 1.5–2 tons per hectare and an average in-country production of around 300 thousand tons per year. Introducing subtropical soybeans is an approach to enrich the genetic variance of local soybeans to increase the yields. A total of 112 subtropical soybeans from East Asia were planted in the lowland tropic region, and their agronomic traits adaptation was observed. The area was selected to assess the photoperiod sensitivity of soybean species, which originated from subtropical regions. All genotypes flowered and were able to produce mature pods. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used as a prior analysis to gain a better understanding of the dimensionality of datasets. Eight principal components (PC) were produced, with 67.60% of data variation explained by the first three PCs. Biplot analysis identified 30 potential genotypes that exhibited better performance, which were grouped into 4 distinct clusters, and each cluster had its specific identity traits. This preliminary finding could be a basis for further research for reference when selecting genotypes as gene sources in soybean breeding programs.
