Greenhouse and field evaluation of bacterial endophytes from Cannabis sativa and Chelidonium majus reveals beneficial stage-dependent growth and yield responses in common bean

Bacterial endophytes are increasingly recognized for their ability to enhance plant growth and productivity through multiple physiological and biochemical mechanisms. However, how these responses are coordinated across plant developmental stages and translate into final crop performance remains unclear. This study eval...

Plant defense activator-mediated seed priming suppresses leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) and enhances yield in bread wheat genotypes

Puccinia triticina causing leaf rust is a significant pathogen of wheat because it negatively affects the canopy functioning, grain filling, and final yield. This research investigated the impact of seed priming on leaf rust severity, growth and yield of three bread wheat varieties Arooj-22, Dilkash-20 and MH-21. For t...

Biochar Rates and Bio-Nematicide Effects on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Growth, Yield and Root-Knot Nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) Suppression in Northern Ghana

Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are among the most destructive pests limiting tomato production, particularly in tropical regions. Two experiments (pot and field trials) were conducted at the University for Development Studies, Nyankpala, Ghana, to evaluate the effects of different biochar amendment rates on the...

Germination and Growth Responses of Trifoliate Orange (Poncirus trifoliata L.) Seeds to Glycerol-Chitosan-Based Biostimulant Treatments

Trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata L.), a citrus rootstock valued for its cold hardiness and resistance to broad biotic stress, produces desiccation-sensitive seeds whose successful germination requires optimized pre-sowing treatments for reliable sexual propagation. This study investigated whether chitosan-based c...
