Performance and Adaptation of Black Cumin (Nigella sativa L.) Genotypes under Natural Salinity Conditions in the Southwest Coastal Region of Bangladesh

Responses of Selected Lowland Rice (Oryza Sativa Linnaeus.) Genotypes to Environmental Stress in Badeggi, Niger State, Nigeria

Rice (Oryza sativa Linnaeus.) production in Nigeria is constrained by abiotic stresses including drought, salinity, and iron toxicity. This study evaluated 30 lowland rice genotypes for tolerance to these stresses using phenotypic, physiological, and agronomic parameters. Drought screening was conducted under field con...

Evaluation of selected garlic genotypes for salinity tolerance under different mulching practices in coastal saline soil

An experiment was carried out at the farmer’s field of Tildanga, Dacope, Khulna from November 2020 to April 2021, to identify high-yielding genotypes of garlic under different mulching practices in saline-prone areas of Bangladesh.  In the present study, six selected genotypes, namely KSA-009, DRA-012, SAM-016, KJH-001...

Evaluation of NaCl tolerance in local melon genotypes collected from the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and cultivated in Türkiye under in vitro and hydroponic conditions

Salinity is a major abiotic stress limiting melon (Cucumis melo L.) production, particularly during germination and early seedling growth. This study evaluated salinity tolerance in 28 melon genotypes, including local accessions from the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), Turkish landraces, and commercial F1 c...
