“…Furthermore, the YNU31-2-4 genotype shows a higher increment by 178, and 278% in CAT and SOD activity under the T 5 condition, respectively (Figure 5D and Table A6). The salinity at VS and heat and salinity at RS (T6) increase PROT, PRO, CAT, SOD, and APX by 16,63,195,52, and 64% in the YNU31-2-4 genotype, respectively (Figure 5E and Table A6).…”

The yield-reduction effect of abiotic stressors such as salinity and heat stresses with the growing world population threatens food security. Although adverse effects of salinity and heat stress on plant growth and production parameters have been documented, in nature, abiotic stresses occur sequentially or simultaneously. In this study, the stress tolerance and yield capacity of Yukinkomai, YNU31-2-4, and YNU SL rice genotypes tested under control (26 °C, 0 mM NaCl), salinity (26 °C, 75 mM NaCl), heat (31 °C, 0 mM NaCl), and heat and salinity (31 °C, 75 mM NaCl) stress combinations at vegetative and reproductive stages with six different scenarios. The results show that salinity and the heat and salinity combination stresses highly reduce plant growth performance and yield capacity. Heat stress during reproduction does not affect the yield but reduces the grain quality. The YNU31-2-4 genotype performs better under heavy salt and heat and salinity stress then the Yukinkomai and YNU SL genotypes. YNU31-2-4 genotypes accumulate less Na+ and more K+ under salt and multiple stresses. In the YNU31-2-4 genotype, low Na+ ion accumulation increases photosynthetic activity and pigment deposition, boosting the yield. Stress lowers the glucose accumulation in dry seeds, but the YNU31-2-4 genotype has a higher glucose accumulation.

“…Weeds steal nutrients, water, and sunlight, reducing both the quality and the quantity of crop yields [1]. Taking up the necessary space from weeds can make crop plants more susceptible to diseases and even pests [2,3]. Previous research shows that a lack of weed control can cause up to 90% crop loss [4,5].…”

Due to the negative impact of chemical inter-row weed control on the environment, mechanical weed control is increasingly used in practice. Machine-tractor units (MTU) are used with the row cultivator’s rear and frontal central position for its implementation. We have designed a unit in which side cultivators are used along with the central one. This paper considers the transverse movement kinematics of such an MTU’s outside right and left cultivators’ working devices in the horizontal plane. The present emulation of side machines is made by changing the longitudinal coordinate of their location relative to the tractor’s front and rear axles. Calculations have established that the frontal cultivator responds more intensively to the control action by changing the turning angle of the tractor’s steering wheels. However, if the value of this parameter is less than 2.75°, a rear-mounted cultivator is preferred, because in this case, the values of lateral deviations for the external, left, and right working device are smaller. When the turning angle of tractor wheels is from 1° to 3° (typical for MTU row work), a threefold increase in the working width of the cultivator causes a slight antiphase deviation in its external working devices (an increase or decrease in the amplitude of these deviations does not exceed 4%). The model that we have developed allows us to select the values of the MTU design parameters for which the lateral displacement will be very small (close to zero). As the turning angle of the tractor wheels increases to 3°, the external left and right working devices of the cultivators react inversely. This means that in the case of the rear machine, the values of lateral displacements increase, while in the case of the front machine, they decrease. At a turning angle of the tires of the tractor wheels close to 2.5°, the lateral displacements for the rear and front machines are the same.

“…Moreover, osmotic stress induces cellular damage due to water deficiency, causing cell dehydration, membrane impairment, and disruption of vital cellular processes [ 11 , 12 ]. This cellular damage further contributes to diminished photosynthesis, metabolic dysfunction, and decreased crop yield [ 13 , 14 ]. Additionally, osmotic stress weakens plants, rendering them more susceptible to pest infestations and diseases, exacerbating the yield reduction [ 13 , 15 ].…”

Osmotic stress is a significant concern in agricultural crop production as it can harm crop growth, development, and productivity. Agriculture crops are particularly vulnerable to osmotic stress due to their reliance on water availability for various physiological processes. Organic amendments like activated carbon biochar and growth hormone gibberellic acid (GA3) can play a vital role. However, the time needed is to modify the established amendment to achieve better results. That’s why the current study used potassium-enriched biochar (KBC = 0.75%) with and without GA3 (15 mg/L) as amendments under no osmotic stress and osmotic stress in wheat. Results showed that GA3 + KBC caused significant enhancement in germination (9.44%), shoot length (29.30%), root length (21.85%), shoot fresh weight (13.56%), shoot dry weight (68.38), root fresh weight (32.68%) and root dry weight (28.79%) of wheat over control under osmotic stress (OS). A significant enhancement in chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll, while the decline in electrolyte leakage of wheat, also validated the effectiveness of GA3 + KBC over control in OS. In conclusion, GA3 + KBC is the most effective among all applied treatments for improving wheat growth attributes under no osmotic and osmotic stress. Further research is needed at the field level, focusing on various cereal crops, to establish GA3 + KBC as the optimal treatment for effectively mitigating the impacts of osmotic stress.
