Manganese deficiency critically impairs the function and stability of photosystem II (PSII) and
negatively impacts crop growth and yield. However, the response mechanisms of carbon …

Manganese deficiency in wheat has become an important nutritional disorder particularly in
alkaline calcareous soils where rice-wheat rotation is followed. This experiment was aimed …

Manganese (Mn) deficiency limits wheat productivity on sandy loam, calcareous and
alkaline soils cropped with rice. Variation of wheat genotypes to sustain production and Mn …

Manganese deficiency limits wheat production particularly on highly permeable sandy soils
cropped with rice. Variation in the ability of genotypes to maintain high yield and Mn uptake …

The fragrance in rice plays a significant role in consumer decisions and is influenced by
many environmental factors, eg, water and fertilizer application during cultivation and post …

Mineral nutrition of plants affects the metabolism of carbohydrates between source and sink
organs in plants during grain filling. Minimal information exists on source–sink dynamics of …

Key message Genetic variability in dry matter and manganese partitioning between source
and sink organs was the key mechanism for Mn efficient rice genotypes to cope with Mn …

Increasing manganese (Mn) deficiency in soils emphasizes strategies for breeding
genotypes with increased Mn efficiency. The present investigation evaluated Mn efficiency of …

Among rice genotypes, substantial differences exist with respect to zinc efficiency, but the
mechanisms underlying zinc efficiency are less envisaged. Hence, focus of present …

Wheat genotypes display differential tolerance to manganese (Mn) deficiency. Growing Mn-
efficient cultivars in Mn deficient soil could be effective in improving yields. A pot experiment …
