Book Advances in Plant Sulfur Research

Download or read book Advances in Plant Sulfur Research written by Dimitris L. Bouranis and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an essential nutrient for plant growth and development, sulfur (S) deficiency in productive systems limits yield and quality. This Special Issue hosts a collection of original research articles, focusing on the following topics: (1) The germinative and post-germinative behavior of Brassica napus seeds when severe S limitation is applied to the parent plants; (2) the independence of S-deficiency from the mRNA degradation initiation enzyme PARN in Arabidopsis; (3) the glucosinolate distribution in the aerial parts of sel1-10, a disruption mutant of the sulfate transporter SULTR1;2, in mature Arabidopsis thaliana plants; (4) the accumulation of S-methylcysteine as its γ-glutamyl dipeptide in Phaseolus vulgaris; and (5) the role of ferric iron chelation-strategy components in the leaves and roots of maize, have provided new insights into the effect of S availability on plant functionality. Moreover, the role of S deficiency in root system functionality has been highlighted, focusing on (6) the contribution of root hair development to sulfate uptake in Arabidopsis, and (7) the modulation of lateral root development by the CLE-CLAVATA1 signaling pathway under S deficiency. The role of S in plants grown under drought conditions has been investigated in more detail focusing (8) on the relationship between S-induced stomata closure and the canonical ABA signal transduction machinery. Furthermore, (9) the assessment of S deficiency under field conditions by single measurements of sulfur, chloride, and phosphorus in mature leaves, (10) the effect of fertilizers enriched with elemental S on durum wheat yield, and (11, 12) the impact of elemental S on the rhizospheric bacteria of durum wheat contributed to enhancing the scientific knowledge of S nutrition under field conditions.

Download or read book Response of Sunflower to Sulphur written by K. Usha Rani and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulphur is required by the plants in amounts similar to phosphorus (P) and is important in protein formation and other plant functions. It significantly influences yield and quality of crops, improves odor and flavors, and imparts resistance to cold, and hence it is generally considered as a 'quality nutrient'. Sulphur-deficient soils are widely distributed around the world. In the event of inadequate level of sulphur in soil, response of crops to other nutrients also declines. In addition, the imbalanced use of nitrogen and phosphorus in comparison to S, has widened, the N: S and P: S ratios in soil. Resultantly, the yield of oilseed crops, especially sunflower, is severely affected. Considering this aspect, a comprehensive case study was conducted to evaluate the response of sunflower to different sources and levels of sulphur in semi- arid Alfisol soils. The experiences documented in this book will be highly useful to Agricultural Scientists, Students, Land managers, NGOs, State Agricultural Departments, Agricultural Extension and Transfer of Technology Agencies, not only in India but also in other countries of the world with similar climatic and edaphic environments.

Download or read book Sulphur in Plants written by Y.P. Abrol and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-05-31 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulphur (S) plays a pivotal role in various plant growth and development processes being a constituent of sulphur-containing amino acids, cysteine and methionine, and other metabolites viz., glutathione and phytochelatins, co-factor of enzymes which contribute to stress repair and amelioration of heavy metal toxicity. Besides, a number of S-containing components are biologically active and, thus, a source for use as medicinal value. The basic global issue before the agricultural scientist and world community is to evolve cultivars and develop methodologies for efficient use of inputs to enhance agricultural productivity. This is particularly true of the developing countries which are going to see maximum rise in population with changing food demands and declining availability of land. Amongst the inputs, nutrients play a crucial role. The major requirement is for N, P and K followed by several micro-nutrients. In this context reports of world-wide S deficiency in the agricultural systems are relevant. The reasons are many. Broadly speaking reduction inS emission, use of S-free N, P and K fertilizers and higher biomass production contributed the maximum. Despite the need for sulphur as an essential plant nutrient and the substantial returns expected from its use, very little attention has been given to fill the gap between supply and demand of S.

Book Effects of Nitrogen on Sunflower Productivity in the Big Horn Basin

Download or read book Effects of Nitrogen on Sunflower Productivity in the Big Horn Basin written by Austen Alexandra Samet-Brown and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The production of high quality confectionary sunflower seeds and sunflower seed oil is important in the production of this crop. Very little research has been done that looked at and documented the effect of nitrogen on sunflower hybrids, oil quality and confectionary seed quality components. Therefor studies were conducted in 2014 and 2015 to determine the effects of nitrogen rates and hybrids on sunflower growth, yield, oil content, oil quality, and confectionary seed quality and size on sunflowers being grown in the Big Horn Basin. Results from the study showed that the measured sunflower growth parameters and seed yields were not affected by the different rates of applied nitrogen fertilization. However, the different sunflower hybrids did impact the measured growth parameters and yield data. Sunflower plant height was inconsistent amongst hybrids throughout the growing seasons, however, in general, the two confection seed hybrids matured faster than the oil seed hybrid with hybrid Sierra maturing the slowest. Harvest weight results were also inconstant amongst the hybrids in 2014 and 2015. The head diameter measurement showed a significant difference amongst hybrids in both 2014 and 2015 where oil seed hybrids Defender Plus and Sierra had the largest head diameters of 52.8 and 56.1 centimeters in 2014 and 59.2 and 29.4 centimeters respectively in 2015. In regards to seed yields hybrids D9512 and Defender Plus were consistently yielding the highest whereas oilseed hybrid X9452 was consistently the lowest yielding sunflower hybrid. The oil quality, when looking at the proportion of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, were not significantly affected by varying rates of applied nitrogen fertilizer. However, there were a few individual fatty acids that were effected by nitrogen rates but these components contributed very little to the overall quality of the oil. The oil content percentage was significantly affected by nitrogen application in 2015 but not in 2014. The results show a higher oil content percentage of 33.5% at the lowest rate of applied nitrogen (84 kg N/hectare) and the lowest oil content percentage of 30.0% at the highest rate of applied nitrogen (336 kg N/hectare). These results are relatively consist with other studies done on this subject. The oil quality and content did differ between hybrids, in regards to quality we would expect this as two of our hybrids were high oleic hybrids and the other was a high linoleic hybrid. The oil content percentage was inconstant however in general hybrid Sierra seamed to produce the lowest oil content while hybrid Defender Plus and X9452 had higher oil content percentages. The confectionary sunflower seed quality was not impacted by nitrogen application rates or hybrid. Results from this study show that sunflower production in the Big Horn Basin of both confectionary seeds and oil seeds under irrigation can be a viable market for producers to enter. Results also suggest that a lower rate of nitrogen fertilizer could be used to obtain competitively high yields as well as a high quality product in regards to confectionary seeds and oil quality and content.
