Aphanomyces euteiches： A Threat to Canadian Field Pea Production

Field pea （Pisum sativum var. arvense L.） is an important legume crop around the world. It produces grains with high protein content and can improve the amount of available nitrogen in the soil. Aphanomyces root rot （ARR）, caused by the soil-borne oomycete Aphanomyces euteiches Drechs. （A. euteiches）, is a major threat to pea production in many pea-growing regions including Canada; it can cause severe root damage, wilting, and considerable yield losses under wet soil conditions. Traditional disease management strategies, such as crop rotations and seed treatments, cannot fully prevent ARR under conditions conducive for the disease, due to the longevity of the pathogen oospores, which can infect field pea plants at any growth stage. The development of pea cultivars with partial resistance or tolerance to ARR may be a promising approach to analyze the variability and physiologic specialization ofA. euteiches in field pea and to improve the management of this disease. As such, the detection of quantitative trait loci （QTL） for resistance is essential to field pea-breeding programs. In this paper, the pathogenic characteristics of A. euteiches are reviewed along with various ARR management strategies and the QTL associated with partial resistance to ARR.

Inheritance of the Anatomy--Morphological Structure of the Stalk by Interspecific Hybrids of the Glycine L.

The research focuses on the study of anatomical and morphological stalk structure ofsoya interspecific hybrids of the third generation （F3） between （Glycine max （L.） Merr.） and G. soja Sieb. et Zucc. in comparison with parent plant species. The parent plant species and interspecific hybrids were sowed and grew under similar conditions. The similarity of the anatomic structure of stalks of cultivated plants and Glycine soja （wild soya） proves the hypothesis the studied species have the same origin. However, the obtained results show the considerable degree of phylogenetic dissociation between the studied soya species. Interspecific hybrids inherit from G. soja the ability to high intensive growth. The G. soja use in practical selective breeding is of great interest.

Effects of Extracts from Albizia （Fabaceae） Endemic Species of Madagascar on Vegetable Seedling Development

The effects of extracts from five Albizia （Fabaceae） endemic species from Madagascar （A. arenicola, A. boivini, A. bernieri, A. polyphylla and A. tulearensis） were tested on vegetable seedling development. Crude extracts were obtained through cold or hot extraction methods on dried powdered seeds, seed teguments, leaves or empty pods. They were thereafter purified using techniques based on physicochemical properties of active substances. Assays were carried out on seedling growth of Monocotyledons and Dicotyledons representatives. Results showed that all extracts exerted significant dose dependent inhibition on epicotyl and hypocotyl growth. However, some extracts exhibited a slight stimulation effect at low doses. Moreover, A. arenicola crude extract （E23） slightly inhibited axillary bud growth, while A. tulearensis crude extract （ET1） showed a stimulation effect. According to preliminary phytochemical screening results, these effects might be due to saponins or alkaloids.

Molybdenum and Cobalt Application in Bean （Phaseolus vulgaris L.） with Two Fertilization Systems under No-Tillage

Molybdenum （Mo） and Cobalt （Co） play an important role in nitrogen （N） metabolism of grain legumes. Their applications to alkaline soils have been scarcely studied. A field experiment was set up to evaluate the Mo and Co application in common bean cv. Canario Centenario under two fertilization systems： inorganic fertilization and inoculation with Rhizobium etli. In each system, Mo and Mo ＋ Co were applied by seed impregnation at doses of 1.36 g/kg of seed for Mo and 0.26 g/kg of seed for Co; a control for each fertilization system and an absolute control were included. Yield components, nodules characteristics and N content by grains and foliage were evaluated. A completely randomized block design with seven treatments and five replications was used. Mo application increased the grain yield, grain size, nodulation and N accumulation in grains under both fertilization systems. Mo increased the total N uptake by the plant in 35.4% and 26%, for N fertilized and inoculated plants, respectively. Co application increased only nodules number and weight, and N content under inoculation. Mo application to beans cultivated in alkaline soils is recommended, but Co application is suitable only when beans are inoculated with rhizobia.

Salt Stress Effects on Germination, Plant Growth and Accumulation of Metabolites in Five Leguminous Plants

The investigation was conducted to determine physiological criteria of early selection for salt tolerant leguminous plants. Plants were subjected to 5 levels of salt stress at the roots （0, 50, 100,150 and 200 mM NaCI）. Results showed that sodium chloride had an underrating effect on growth of stems and seed germination of the species studied. The germination rates of seeds of Glycine max and Phaseolus vulgaris （sensitive glyeophytes） were affected from 3 g/L of NaCl, with critical thresholds at 9 and 12 g/L respectively. In contrast, critical thresholds with Mucunapoggei （facultative halophyte）, Vigna unguiculata （moderately tolerant glycophyte） and P. adenanthus （natural halophyte） was found to be above 21 g/L. The reduction of stems growth rate were not significant in P. adenanthus whereas in M. poggei and V. unguiculata this inhibition was observed just when nutritive solutions were enriched with 200 mM. The lipid contents were reduced in all the species under salt stress, whereas proteins and proline contents in the leaves were substantially increased in tolerant species （M. poggei, P. adenanthus and V. unguiculata）. In contrast, proteins and leaf proline contents were negatively affected by salt concentration to G. max and P. vulgaris. Seed germination, proteins and proline could be used as physiological criteria of early selection for salt tolerant leguminous plants.

Influences of Temperature Regime on Germination of Seed of Wild Soybean(Glycine soja)

As an important plant species with high protein contents,wild soybean(Glycine soja),has drawn much attention and appeared to be useful for the genetic improvement of soybean germplasms.Since temperature is one of the numerous environmental factors affecting the germination of most plants,an experimental study was carried out to determine the effect of temperature on germination of wild soybean(G.soja)seeds.Germination test was conducted by setting up thirty-six constant and alternating temperature regimes,ranging from 5 to 40 ℃(16 h night/8 h day).Responses in germination rate to these temperature regimes were then used to construct a quadratic response surface,giving estimated germination rates with confidence intervals at P ≤ 0.05.The results showed that germination capacity was significantly greater while exposed to constant temperatures of 25 ℃,and under the alternating temperature regime the optimum temperature occurred at the 20/25,25/25,25/30 ℃ regime(16 h/8 h)with the amplitude widened from 0 to 5 ℃.Together with regional monthly climate data,these results could be used to improve and promote the cultivation of wild soybean(G.soja),making it available to develop the location-specific optimum seeding time and to apply weed-control treatments.

African Traditional Vegetables as Agents of Integrated Soil Fertility ManangementmCrotalaria and Amaranth Farming

The knowledge and understanding of African leafy vegetables has diminished over time, but in the recent past year there is more interest in their research for their nutritive and medicinal values. Of value are those that have the potential to ameliorate soil nutrient levels. This is with the background that despite inorganic fertilizers （IF） have a dramatic impact on agriculture in the world, the economic situation in Sub-Saharan African calls for alternative methods to reduce soil fertility degradation. The use of leguminous vegetables may be a solution. The study looks at the potential contribution of a leguminous traditional vegetable-- Crotalaria brevidens to soil nitrogen under various treatments. During the study which was conducted over two seasons, C. brevidens was grown under two treatments of IF and organic fertilizer （OF） with a control in which there was no fertilizer （NF） applied. A non-leguminous vegetable--Amaranthus dubious （Amaranth） was grown under the same treatments for comparison purposes. Soil analysis was done before and after planting in the treatment subplots. Growth parameters were measured every fortnight and these included leaf number, shoot length, dry weight and nodule number for Crotalaria. Results indicated that the leguminous vegetable was not affected by external inputs and there were no significant differences between treatments and control. The non-leguminous vegetables responded well to both IF and OF treatments in all the measured parameters. This underlines the potential for improving soil nitrogen levels using leguminous vegetables, especially as intercrops with the non-leguminous types.

Dry Matter Partitioning, Nodulation and Seed Traits of Medium and Late Maturing Soybean Varieties as Affected by Planting Pattern and Plant Density

An experiment was conducted on Fluvisols of Awassa for two consecutive years （2005-2006） to determine effects of planting pattern and plant density on dry matter accumulation, nodulation, protein and oil content in early and late maturing soybean varieties. Results indicated that Awassa-95 variety produced significantly higher （P 〈 0.05） number of nodules/plant （NDN）, nodule dry matter （NDM） and leaf dry matter （LDM at R2 （mid flowering） stage of soybean growth than that of variety Belessa-95）. Similarly, variety Awassa-95 （45%） produced significantly higher protein content than variety Belessa-95 （40%）. However, variety Belessa-95 accumulated significantly higher （P 〈 0.01） dry matter in straw, grain and total biomass at R7 （physiological maturity） stage of soybean growth than variety Awassa-95. Similarly, oil content of variety Belessa-95 （18.1%） was significantly （P 〈 0.05） higher than that of variety Awassa-95 （15.9%）. Equidistant rows produced significantly higher （P 〈 0.05） NDM than either rectangular or paired rows. Moreover, soybean plants grown in both rectangular and equidistant rows produced significantly higher （P 〈 0.01） straw dry matter than those grown in paired rows; but, grain dry matter/plant （GDM） was significantly higher （P 〈 0.01） paired and rectangular rows compared to equidistant rows. Plant density also affected the per plant GDM production as it was significantly higher （P 〈 0.01） in 20 and 30 plants/m2 than higher plant densities （40 and 50 plants/m2）. However, dry matter and yield components had strong negative association with protein content. In fact, strong positive correlation （R 〉 0.600） occurred between grain yield and its components with dry matter components at R2 （stem dry matter （SDM）, leaf dry matter （LDM） and stem ＋ nodule ＋ leaf dry matter together known as TDM） and straw dry matter at R7 in both varieties. This study depicted that soybean plants that produce higher dry matter components at R2 would probably produce more straw dry matter, greater grain yield components and higher grain yield dry matter at later stages.

Differences in seed dormancy and germination in amphicarpic legumes:manifold bet-hedging in space and time

Aims Dispersal through space or time via dormancy is one of the primary processes whereby organisms can influence the environment they experience.In plants,strong evolutionary correlations are expected between the two kinds of dispersal because both are performed by the seeds and play comparable adaptive roles.In this paper,we investigated these evolutionary correlations using amphicarpic plants,which simultaneously produce aerial seeds with high spatial dispersal propensity and subterranean seeds that do not disperse.Methods We investigated the variation in dormancy and germination in aerial and subterranean seeds of two amphicarpic legumes(Vicia amphicarpa L.and Lathyrus amphicarpos L.)and two closely related homocarpic taxa(Vicia sativa L.and Lathyrus cicera L.)by estimating germination percentages following different combinations of dormancy breaking treatments(i.e.dry after-ripening,cold stratification and physical scarification).Important Findings Our results showed complex interactions between spatial and temporal dispersal.Right after dispersal,aerial seeds were more dormant than their subterranean counterparts,but this trend reversed with after-ripening,as seeds developed physical dormancy.Seeds of homocarpic plants germinated at higher percentages than those of their amphicarpic congeners and lost dormancy homogeneously with after-ripening.Conversely,amphicarpic seeds exhibited varied dormancy strategies modulated by both physiological and physical dormancy.These are expected to increase variation in emergence timing,providing multiple levels of diversifying bet-hedging.This strategy might be adaptive under highly unpredictable conditions by enabling plants to rely on historically favorable sites in good seasons without preventing spatial and temporal migration.
