Potassium (K) deficiency occurs commonly in crop plants. Optimal K nutrition is particularly
important when plants are exposed to stress conditions (especially drought and heat) …

One grand challenge for studying plant biotic and abiotic stress responses is to optimize
plant growth and plasticity under variable environmental constraints, which in the long run …

Understanding the lethal effects of pesticides nano formulations on the targeted organisms
(pathogens) and the non-targeted organisms (fish, earthworms, etc) is essential in assessing …

Intracellular potassium (K+) transported by plants under the action of a number of transport
proteins is crucial for plant survival under distinct abiotic and biotic stresses. A correlation …

Rice sheath rot disease caused by Sarocladium oryzae (S. oryzae) infection is an emerging
disease, and infection can cause yield losses of 20–85%. Adequate potassium (K) …

A factorial experiment consisting of three factors, namely six fertilizer doses including
different combinations of potassium (K) and silicon (Si) along with nitrogen (N) and …

Sheath rot disease is an emerging fungal disease in rice, whose infection causes severe
yield loss. Sarocladium oryzae (S. oryzae) is the major causal agent. Previous study has …

Intensive crop rotation is one of the main causes of the continued depletion in soil potassium
(K) content in the Yangtze River basin (YRB). However, recent studies have shown that soil …

Fertilizers and plant diseases contribute positively and negatively to crop production,
respectively. Macro-and micronutrients provided by the soil and fertilizers are transported by …

The interactions between nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) are important determinants of rice
yield, but the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. For example, N/K interactions …
