ABSTRACT This study aimed to obtain equations to estimate leaf area from linear leaf dimensions and establish the allometric relationship between leaf area and the number of leaves on the main stem of chia (Salvia hispanica L.) at different sowing times. The experiment was conducted in the agricultural year 2016/2017 on five sowing times in Santa Maria, RS, Brazil, in a randomized block design with four repetitions. In each plot, ten random plants were marked weekly during the vegetative phase to determine the number of leaves (NL) in the main stem, and three of these for the determination of leaf area (LA). A total of 70 leaves of different sizes were used to calibrate the model. Another 106 leaves were used to test the predictive capacity of the equations by various statistical indices. The length (L) and the largest leaf width (W) were measured. Leaf collection was carried out during the cycle, in all sowing times to represent all leaf sizes. The linear, quadratic, exponential, and potential models were adjusted. The non-destructive method, through the linear dimensions of the leaf, is appropriate for estimating the leaf area in chia. The general equation LA = 0.642 (L x W) can be used to estimate the leaf area of the chia plants without loss of precision. The potential model is appropriate to characterize the allometric relationship between leaf area evolution and the number of leaves accumulated in the main stem of chia at different sowing times.

The objective of this study was to analysis the expression of antioxidant genes in response to droughtstress in Indonesian rice. The malondialdehyde (MDA) content and the expression of Cu-ZnSod1, cCu-ZnSod2,MnSod1, cApxa, cApxb, chl-sApx, Cat1, Cat2, Cat3, Gr1, Gr2, and Gr3 genes were assayed in the rice fl ag leaf ofCiherang and Situ Bagendit cultivars subjected to control, mild and severe drought during the grain fi llingphase. Increase in MDA content of Ciherang treated to mild and severe drought was almost two-fold andthree-fold respectively, while MDA content in Situ Bagendit subjected to mild and severe drought increasedapproximately one-fold and two-fold as compared to the control. The semi quantitative reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction (sqRT-PCR) analysis showed that the expression of cCu-ZnSod1, MnSod1, Cat2, Gr3genes of Ciherang, and cCu-ZnSod2, MnSod1, cApxa, cApxb, chl-sAPX, Cat2 and Gr1 genes of Situ Bagendit increasedin fl ag leaf of plant treated to drought. Expressions of cApxb, chl-sApx, Cat3 of Ciherang and Cu-ZnSod1 and Gr2genes of Situ Bagendit were not changed signifi cantly by drought stress. Decreased expression was shownby cCu-ZnSod2, cApxa, Cat1, Gr1 and Gr2 genes of Ciherang, and Cat1, Cat3 and Gr3 genes of Situ Bagendit. Theresults indicated that the activity of oxidative defense was regulated by four genes; cCu-ZnSod1, MnSod1, Cat2,Gr3 in Ciherang, and eight genes; cCu-ZnSod1, cCu-ZnSod2, MnSod1, cApxa, cApxb, chl-sApx, Cat2 and Gr1 in SituBagendit. Therefore, differences in the number of antioxidant genes controlling oxidative defense systemmight determine the difference of the oxidative defense capacity between both cultivars in response to droughtstress during grain fi lling.

In the article it is shown the results of the study of heterosis hybrids of corn on the signs of early ripening, such as: the growing season, the number of leaves on the main stem, the moisture yield of grain during harvest. To distribute our corn material by precocity, a number of studies were conducted, namely: estimating the length of the growing season "shoots – full ripeness", which was determined in days, and a very important indicator today is the moisture content of grain when harvested in percentage, it allowed to distribute heterosis hybrids into two groups: early-maturing (106–114) and middle-early – 114–123 days. Over the years of testing, the weather conditions varied considerably, which made it possible to evaluate in detail the material under study. In 2020, the growing season was within 107.8 days, which is almost three days less than in 2021. At the same time, the longer vegetation period was in 2021. Therefore, the aim of our study was to analyze the rate of moisture yield of corn grain of the studied hybrids of the two maturity groups. The conducted researches allowed to trace the dynamics of grain moisture yield of early-maturing maize hybrids and one hybrid of the middle-ripening group of maturity, to determine the variability of hybrid grain moisture in different periods of grain maturation. The year 2021 was more favorable for growing corn, the plants formed a large vegetative mass, but the grain had a high humidity during the harvest period. This is due to a significant amount of precipitation (69.9 mm) in August 2021. Hybrids that had high harvest humidity were characterized by a long growing season, such as № 47 × № 33. Therefore, our selected hybrids can be successfully used in planning a strategy for early maturity. In establishing the patterns of moisture transfer of grain when it reaches, in particular, the influence of the conditions of the year, in our study group were identified two hybrids consistently better in terms of grain moisture. Preference should be given to hybrids № 31 × № 37 and № 83 × № 125, which combine indicators of early maturity: the shortest growing season, the number of leaves on the main stem and the rate of moisture.

Cultivation of plants on dry acid land faces several obstacles, including drought and high Al3 + solubility. The response of soybean to water deficit varies depending on the plant species, the size and duration of stress and the growth phase. The high solubility of Al3 + in the soil is toxic to plants, thus inhibiting root function and growth. The purpose of this study was to study the growth response and tolerance mechanisms of soybeans under drought and aluminum stress conditions. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) 3 factors with 3 replications, consisting of soybean genotypes (SP 30-4, PG 57-1, Anjasmoro and Tanggamus), drought periods (2, 6 and 10 days), and Al neutralization ( 0 x Aldd and 1 x Aldd). The difference in growth response between genotypes to Al stress and drought was seen in the variables of plant height, number of leaves, and crown dry weight

SummaryA number of commercial varieties and advanced breeding lines of wheat and of barley were each sown successively in the field from early in September until late in February in 3 or 2 years. Shoot apex development was monitored throughout the growing season and the dates at which the double ridge stage and the terminal spikelet stage were attained are reported. There was considerable variation in the date at which these stages occurred, associated both with variety and date of sowing. When sown early, spring wheat varieties and the winter wheat, Fenman, developed more rapidly than the other winter wheats, but the difference disappeared in sowings made in the middle of October or later. Spring barley developed more quickly than winter barley and the difference persisted until sowings made in mid-November.Length of the longest leaf sheath, number of emerged leaves on the main shoot and the time when stem elongation began (‘ear at 1 cm’), plant characters used to assess the stage for various agronomic treatments, were measured in parallel with apex development. The relationships between number of emerged leaves and the length of the longest leaf sheath and stage of development were found to vary with sowing date. The stage ‘ear at 1 cm’ provided a good guide to shoot apex development. Stem length and number of elongated internodes varied with date of sowing. Some of the variation in number of emerged leaves at a given stage and in the final number of elongated internodes was found to be correlated with total number of leaves on the main shoot. The form of analysis used indicated that sowing date may have important effects, via its effect on the number of leaves on the main shoot, on the duration of ear growth in wheat and barley and on the duration of ear formation in barley.

Panicle differentiation (DP) is a key developmental stage in rice (Oryza sativa L.) because at this stage plant switches from vegetative to reproductive development and source-sink relation changes to allocate part of the photoassimilates for growing spikelets and kernels. The objective of this study was to determine the main stem Haun Stage (HS) and the number of leaves that still have to emerge until flag leaf at PD in several cultivated rice genotypes and red rice biotypes in different sowing dates. A two-year field experiment was conducted in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, during the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 growing seasons, and three sowing dates each year. Nine cultivated rice genotypes and two red rice biotypes were used. PD was identified as the R1 stage of the COUNCE scale, by sampling four plants from each genotype on a daily basis. When 50% of the sampled plants were at R1, the main stem HS was measured in 20 plants per genotype. The main stem final leaf number (FLN) was measured in these 20 plants when the collar of the flag leaf was visible. HS at PD is related to FLN in many cultivated rice genotypes and red rice biotypes, and that at PD, the number of leaves still to emerge until flag leaf is not constant for all the rice genotypes. These findings are not in agreement with reports in the literature.

SUMMARYTwo field experiments have been conducted to investigate the pattern of tillering, ear emergence and survival of the component tillers of three barley varieties, representing old and new varieties. The varieties were grown under contrasting nitrogen fertilizer levels and plant spacings. The results reported are for the variety means and variety x nitrogen and variety x spacing interactions. After the main stem (M) the most frequently occurring tiller was the tiller appearing in the axil of the first true leaf (T2), followed by the coleoptile node tiller (T1) and the tiller in the axil of the second true leaf (T3). The T1 tiller occurred most frequently in the newest variety, Deba Abed, and least in the oldest one, Spratt Archer. Survival rates of the shoots were highest in M, followed by T2, T1 and T3. Higher-order tillers occurred relatively infrequently and had low survival rates. M contributed the largest percentage of the grain yield, followed by T2, T1 and T3. The 13% grain yield advantage of Deba Abed over Spratt Archer was mainly accounted for by the difference in production by the T1 tiller. The results are discussed in. relation to the only other known paper on component tillers in barley.
