Influence of Planting Dates on NPK Composition in Soybean Cultivars: A Comparative Analysis | Chapter 10 | Current Research Progress in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 2

 

The present study explores the influence of planting dates on NPK composition in soybean cultivars, conducting a comparative analysis across various planting schedules. Legumes provide a protein-rich source of food which is an essential part of the diets of people inhabiting in the tropics.. Growth, development, and production of Soybean Glycine max (L.) are negatively impacted by delayed planting dates and poor environmental circumstances. The nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium accumulation at harvest and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content in seed impacted by changes in photoperiod, temperature, and precipitation with delayed planting. Extremely high temperatures and drought stress are examples of environmental variables that negatively impact plant development and productivity and are frequently linked to delayed planting. The finding reveals significant variation in the NPK composition contingent on planting dates, underscoring the importance of optimal timing for planting. This study also provides valuable insights for farmers and agronomists seeking to optimize soybean production through strategic planting schedules.

Finding Genetic Variation in Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) Flowering Time by Simple Sequence Repeat Marker | Chapter 10 | Research Perspectives of Microbiology and Biotechnology Vol. 1

Flowering time is one of the important target traits in a soybean breeding program. Photoperiod and temperature influence the vegetative and reproductive development from emergence to maturity in soybean. The objective of this study was to analyze genetic variation in flowering time based on agronomic performance and SSR marker. About 108 soybean cultivars were used for this study. Eight primers relating flowering genes were selected based on soybean cDNA library from NCBI and TIGR. These primers were designed by using Primer 3 [1] to amplify fragments of 500-800bp. The optimum melting temperature was observed for each primer between 58o to 68oC. PCR was followed by protocol of Crop Genomics Laboratory. PCR products producing a single discrete band were purified by AccuPre® PCR purification kit (Bioneer, Korea). The purified PCR product was directly sequenced using one of the PCR primers with BigDye Terminator Cycle Sequenceing Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). The labeling reaction mixture was ethanol-preciputated, and resuspended in 10μl of water. The sequence was analyzed using ABI 3700 sequencer (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). In conclusion, there was wide variation in flowering time of soybean. Gene diversity at nucleotide level will be useful for breeders to make strategy for soybean improvement in future.

Determining the impact of Vermicompost and Organic Formulations on Yield and Quality of Soybean | Chapter 2 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 5

 This branch highlights the effect of Vermicompost and Organic Formulations on Yield and Quality of Soybean Grown on Vertisol. Soybean [Glycine top (L.) Wilczek] is globally main oilseed crop and source of excellence protein for human consumption, secondhand as fodder for animal and is more important crop turn systems. The field experiments were transported during kharif-2020 and kharif-2021 at Research Farm, Department of Soil Science and Agril. Chemistry, College of Agriculture, VNMKV Parbhani, to study the effect of vermicompost and basic formulations on yield and quality of soybean mature on Vertisol. The experiment was laid in factorial randomized block design accompanying twelve situations and three replications. The yield parameters like no. of pods, children and straw yield and kind parameters like protein content and test burden showed important increased accompanying the application of RDF as distinguished to other situations.

Produce Food and Feed of Cereals Legumes and Root Crops in Tropical Agro-forestry of Java Indonesia | Chapter 4 | Emerging Challenges in Agriculture and Food Science Vol. 6

Java, which makes up only about 7% of Indonesia, is home to over 61 percent of the country's population. As a member of the international community, Indonesia is making a major effort to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which place a top focus on reducing hunger and alleviating poverty by 50% by the year 2045. Sadly, the effects of global warming have turned a fantasy into a reality. The production of food crops in Java's forested areas in the past and present shows that the island can sustain not only its own residents, but also those on neighbouring islands and even those who live overseas. Unfortunately, there are negative effects from food crop production techniques on the forest, disrupting its fundamental role as a carbon sink. Only around 2.5 percent of Indonesian forest, or 3.3 million acres, is on the island of Java. Java's forest is maintained by civilians in 27 percent of the area, with around 73 percent of it being administered by Perhutani (the State Forest Enterprise). According to reports, the deadly dosage of cyanide for humans is between 0.5 and 3.5 mg HCN/kg body weight, or between 30-210 mg HCN for an adult weighing 60 kg. The bitter cassava genotypes contain more than 50 mg/kg of fresh root HCN. Very bitter genotypes of cassava may have more HCN per kilogramme of fresh root than 100 mg. People in rural communities devoured cassava during the famine crisis without thinking about the HCN concentration, which made cassava poisoning a severe issue that contributed to deaths. Indeed, the quick conversion of cyanide into the considerably less deadly thiocyanate, which is then eliminated in the urine, allows the human body to detoxify as much as 100 mg of HCN for 24 hours. As Elephant Food, Porang In the Perhutani forest, yam or conyac (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume) was a relatively common food item that people would consume in or near teak forests. However, during the hunger catastrophe from 1945 to 1980, porang was particularly common in cassava, sweet potato, and root crops. Porang was first offered for sale in Pasuruan in 1980 under the name Shirataki noodle in Japan. Porang has a significant amount of glucomannan, and it is used to make flour after being dried and ground. As the source of the cheapest protein, soybeans account for 34% of the protein in tofu and tempe, making them ideal. In addition to cereals and grain legumes, which are well known as food sources, shade-tolerant root-crops have the benefit of producing more food in the form of starchy roots in a more fertile environment. Future agroforestry development need to be able to maintain a greener forest as a carbon sink while still supplying enough food for inhabitants.

Characterization of Soybean Genotypes on the Basis of Yield Attributing Traits and SSR Molecular Markers | Chapter 07 | Innovations in Science and Technology Vol. 3

 Soybean is well-designed to be a main crop and a vital source of nutrition for both humans and animals. The current study was carried out to distinguish between different soybean genotypes based on morpho-physiological parameters and SSR genetic markers. Data for various morpho-physiological variables were collected from experiments carried out in the field using the RBD design, while molecular work was carried out in the lab using 32 microsatellite markers to see whether there was any conceivable variation among different soybean genotypes. The incidence of significant magnitude of variability was discovered by morphophysiological inquiry. The genotypes were sorted into major and minor clusters using a phylogenetic tree based on morpho-physiological features. There were fifty genotypes in the major cluster, but only three genotypes in the smaller cluster. The marker Satt520 had the most genetic diversity (0.66) and the lowest genetic diversity (0.037) across polymorphic 32 microsatellite markers, with an average of 0.35. The highest PIC value was 0.59, which was planned by the same marker, Satt520, and the lowest was 0.036, which was prearranged by marker Satt557. The average PIC value was 0.32, while the average major allele frequency was 0.69. Data based on microsatellite markers also grouped the genotypes into one major and one minor cluster. The presence of genetic variability among genotypes under examination is confirmed by a molecular analysis based on microsatellite markers. The results of this study could help to improve soybean genotypes and promote high-yielding varieties by incorporating a variety of genotypes with good agronomical qualities into a breeding plan.

Toward Elicitation of Bioactive Secondary Compounds with Environmentally Sound Plant Treatments: Insight into the Balance between Photosynthetic Primary and Kaempferol Accumulating Secondary Metabolism Using Young Soybean Plants | Chapter 2 | Cutting-edge Research in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 10

 There are few environmentally friendly plant treatments that can impose mild physiological stress and induce bioaccumulation of useful phytochemicals like kaempferols. In young greenhouse-grown soy plants, we tested ABA foliar application at 100 or 200 M, as well as two types of leaf wounding, piercing or hole punching. The same leaf was used to measure gas exchange and A/Ci response, PSII, pigments, and antiradical activity, while the leaf above was used to measure kaempferols. When compared to the control, ABA 200 M-treated plants had 20% less gas exchange and 17% less ETR, but higher Vcmax and Jmax. They had 55% and 100% more stomatal limitation to Pnet and PSII, respectively. in comparison to the control Leaf-wounded plants exhibited the least stomatal limitation to Pnet or PSII. When compared to the control, leaf piercing increased chlorophylls by 39% and carotenoids by 38%. Six kaempferols were identified as mono-, di-, and triglycosides. When compared to the control, each leaf treatment increased total kaempferol yield by 42 percent in the ABA 100 M treatment and 68 percent in the ABA 200 M treatment. In general, kaempferol yields in ABA 100 M were positively correlated with Pnet. Pnet in leaf-pierced plants was negatively correlated with gs in ABA 200 M-treated plants and positively correlated with gs in ABA 200 M-treated plants. The findings of this study show that environmentally friendly foliar treatments can significantly increase kaempferol yield and thus phytochemical or nutritional quality of soy leaves. ABA application and wounding had different effects on the relationship between photosynthetic primary metabolism and kaempferol accumulation. ABA application and wounding are both promising leaf treatments for increasing kaempferol levels in young soy leaves.
