    In order to cultivate new wheat varieties with stable yield in dry years and high yield in wet years, a new wheat variety 'Jirumai 25' was bred by Jining Academy of Agricultural Sciences. This variety was developed through sexual hybridization using the high-yield and drought resistant variety 'Shannong 2149' as the female parent and the high-yield variety 'Liangxing 619' as the male parent. 'Jirumai 25' is the winter type with a plant height of 77.5 cm, good lodging resistance and ripening, full grain, good commodity, drought resistance, water saving, high and stable yield, and good integrated resistance. The results of the two-year regional experiments showed that the average yield was 7742.55 kg/hm2, which was 4.02% higher than that of the control variety. In the production experiment of Shandong wheat dryland in 2022-2023, the average yield was 7176.15 kg/hm2, which increased by 5.6% compared with 'Shannong 27', and the yield increase rate was 100%. It was approved by the Shandong Crop Variety Approval Committee in December 2023, with the approval number of Lu Sheng Mai 20230029. The approval of 'Jirumai 25' wheat new variety provides strong breed support for dryland wheat production in southwestern Shandong and has a broad application prospects.

    In order to clarify the effects of planting density on the grain filling characteristics, dry matter accumulation, yield and yield components of different maize varieties, in this study, the medium-high yield maize varieties ‘Yongyou 1573’ and ‘Yongyou 1593’ were used as experimental materials in 2021-2022, and three densities of 60000, 75000, 90000 plants/hm2 were set. The results showed that under different planting densities, the 100-grain weight showed a "fast increase-slow increase" rising trend, and the grain filling rate showed a single peak curve of "first increase and then decrease", and the peak filling appeared about 22 days after pollination. Increasing the planting density significantly reduced the theoretical maximum 100-grain weight (a), the maximum grain filling rate (Rmax), the average grain filling rate (Rmean) and the grain weight (Wmax) when the grain filling reached the maximum rate, and the yield per plant was significantly positively correlated with the 100-grain weight, the number of grains per ear, Wmax, Rmax and Rmean. After pollination, the dry matter accumulation of plants decreased with the increase of density, and the decrease of high density was more significant. The proportion of vegetative organs of plants in the early stage of filling was relatively large. The proportion of each organ of plants in the middle and late stage of filling was in the order of grain>stem sheath>leaf>ear axis>bract, and the contribution rate of stem sheath dry weight to grain yield was the largest. Increasing planting density reduced the ear length, ear diameter, grain number per ear and yield per plant of different maize varieties, and increased the bald tip length. The yield per unit area was the highest at the density of 75000 plants/hm2. There were differences among varieties. The 100-grain weight of ‘Yongyou 1573’ was less than that of ‘Yongyou 1593’, and the grain number per ear and yield per unit area were greater than the latter, indicating that the 100-grain weight and grain number per ear jointly affected the yield per unit area. This study provides theoretical basis for the selection of optimum planting density and the improvement of corn yield, and also has theoretical guiding significance for the realization of high efficiency and yield increase of summer corn in northern Henan.

    Tianshui City of Gansu Province has become a pear fruit production base in the dry and cold region of northern China, due to its location in the hinterland of the Loess Plateau in central Gansu, with abundant light and heat, and deep soil layers. Affected by global climate change, the harm of meteorological disasters in Tianshui has significantly increased. Due to the tall height, early flowering period and long growth cycle of pear trees, their growth, development, and yield are more susceptible to the impact of climate change. In order to understand the impact of climate change on the total yield of pear trees, using statistical methods, this study analyzed the main agrometeorological conditions influencing pear tree yield in Tianshui over the past 40 years. The study identified the significant agrometeorological factors affecting pear yields such as the precipitation in early autumn (the last ten days of September), average temperature in mid-spring (the first ten days of April), and sunshine hours in late spring (the first ten days and middle ten days of May). Additionally, the substantial increase in temperatures during autumn and winter, coupled with early spring arid conditions, exacerbated nutrient depletion in fruit trees and hindered the normal development of flower buds, thereby impacting pear tree yields. The study results provide a decision-making support for effective utilization of climate resources and development of industrial layouts in fruit tree production and management departments.

    Five different tomato varieties were chosen as the experimental subjects in the Yanqi basin, and two types of cultivated land were selected as experimental sites, including selenium-enriched land with a selenium content of 0.4 mg/kg in the soil, and non-selenium-enriched land with no detectable selenium content. The objective of this study was to analyze and evaluate the selenium enrichment ability and quality of these tomato varieties in natural selenium-enriched soil, and to identify the varieties that were suitable for local cultivation. The findings would provide a theoretical foundation for the development of the selenium-enriched industry in the Yanqi basin. The results revealed that the processed tomato varieties in selenium-enriched areas met the standards for selenium-enriched agricultural products and were considered natural selenium-enriched tomatoes. The varieties ‘Tunhe 1943’, ‘Tunhe 3501’, and ‘Tunhe 5501’ exhibited strong selenium enrichment abilities, with bioconcentration factors of 6.6%, 6.6%, and 6.3%, respectively. Planting processed tomatoes in natural selenium-enriched soil improved the quality of the tomatoes, as evidenced by higher lycopene content in the selenium-enriched areas compared to the non-selenium-enriched areas. Furthermore, ‘Tunhe 3501’ and ‘Tunhe 5501’ had higher lycopene content than ‘Tunhe 1015’, ‘Tunhe 1943’ and ‘Tunhe 17’. In selenium-enriched areas, the reducing sugar content of ‘Tunhe 1943’, ‘Tunhe 3501’, and ‘Tunhe 17’ was higher than that in non-selenium-enriched areas. The total acid content of processed tomatoes in selenium-enriched areas was also higher than that in non-selenium-enriched areas. ‘Tunhe 3501’ had the highest total acid content, followed by ‘Tunhe 1943’, and ‘Tunhe 1015’ had the lowest content. A comprehensive analysis of the membership function demonstrated that ‘Tunhe 3501’ performed the best overall in natural selenium-enriched soil, followed by ‘Tunhe 1943’.

    The bibliometric analysis was conducted to analyze the research progresses and development trend in the field of Leguminivora glycinivorella using knowledge map analysis and visual analysis based on the literature published from Jul. 1955 to Jun. 2023 and recorded in the database of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and five databases of Web of Science. There were 383 papers on L. glycinivorella published in 125 journals at home and abroad, and the researchers were from 294 research institutions of 8 countries or regions. The results showed that the total number of publications on L. glycinivorella kept increasing, and an explosive increase occurred during the 21st century. Heilongjiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences had the most published papers among research institutions. Keywords in CNKI included control effect, occurrence regularity, soybean varieties, DDVP and Trichogramma, while keyword in Web of Science included identification and expression of resistance genes, transgenic soybean, Trichogramma and sex pheromone. Up to now, the researches are mainly involved in the fields of applied entomology, physiology and biochemistry, biology and ecology. Research hotspots on L. glycinivorella in China were closely related to its integrated control technology and screening of insect-resistant varieties. However, research hotspots in foreign countries were closely related to the genetic expression of L. glycinivorella. The bibliometric analysis results could help relevant researchers to quickly understand the current research status in this field. Targeting the current hot issues and weak links in L. glycinivorella, we can select the right research direction to develop more effective technical measures on the control of L. glycinivorella.

    To explore the effects of densification on the distribution of light andnitrogen, photosynthetic characteristics, dry matter accumulation and output value of flue-cured tobacco canopy in Shaoguan tobacco-growing area, four densities (M1:10500 plants/hm2, M2:13500 plants/hm2, M3:16500 plants/hm2, M4:19500 plants /hm2) of ‘Yueyan 97’ were set to determine the light resources and nitrogen distribution, pigment content, dry matter accumulation and economic properties of different canopy. The results showed that with the increase of density, the light transmittal rate of different canopy decreased and the chlorophyll content was increased. Compared with M1 treatment, the upper leaf chlorophyll of M4 treatment increased by 26.31% at 80d, and the increase of Chlb was greater than that of Chla. Photosynthetic characteristics and nitrogen are important indexes of crop carbon and nitrogen metabolism. As density increased, photosynthetic rate of tobacco plant decreased, compared with M1 treatment, the upper leaves of M4 treatment decreased by 32.16% to 35.83%. The Ci, Tr and Gs increased first and then decreased, while nitrogen concentration showed a decreasing trend, but there was no significant difference between middle and upper leaves of M4, M3 and M2 treatment at different periods. When the density was 16500 plants/hm2, the dry matter accumulation in leaf organs of ‘Yueyan 97’ reached the maximum, and the highest yield and economic benefit were obtained. Compared with the density of 10500 plants/hm2, the yield and output value were significantly increased. Reasonable dense planting of ‘Yueyan 97’ could resist the decline of photosynthetic rate under weak light stress by reducing chlorophyll degradation and improving nitrogen distribution in middle and upper leaves, promoted the dry matter accumulation ability of tobacco plant population, and obtained higher tobacco yield and output value.

    In order to clarify the effects of topping time and topping method on the yield and quality of flue-cured tobacco, a field experiment was carried out in Guiyang, Chenzhou. The experiment was the two-factor split-plot test, and set C1 (topping at budding), C2 (topping at the opening of the central flower), C3 (topping at the opening of the full flower) and D1 (removing the flower without young leaves), D2 (removing the top adjacent 2 young leaves on the flower), D3 (removing the top 4 adjacent young leaves on the flower). The effects of different treatments on the economic traits, physical characteristics, chemical composition and sensory quality of flue-cured tobacco ‘Yunyan 87’ were analyzed. The results showed that with the delay of topping time, the proportion of superior tobacco, average price, yield, output value and smoking quality of flue-cured tobacco increased first and then decreased. The length, thickness and leaf area quality of upper leaves increased, and the contents of total nitrogen and nicotine increased. With the increase of young leaves removed by topping, the proportion of superior leaves increased first and then decreased, while the output value decreased first and then increased, and the length, thickness and leaf area quality of upper, middle and lower leaves increased, the leaf area index of middle leaves increased, and the contents of nicotine, total sugar and reducing sugar increased. Under the interaction of topping time and topping method, the economic traits of the treatment of topping without removing young leaves when the central flower was open were the best, the physical characteristics of the treatment of removing the top adjacent 4 young leaves on the flower when the bud was open were the best, and the sensory quality of the treatment of removing the top adjacent 2 young leaves on the flower when the central flower was open was the best. Therefore, it is more than suitable for ‘Yunyan 87’ to remove the top adjacent 2 young leaves on the flower when the central flower is open.

    It is of great significance for the cultivated land differentiated utilization and agricultural sustainable development to clarify farmland quality grade and obstacle factors. In this paper, the soil of farmland in Arong Banner was the research object, GPS was used for fixed-point information collection, and the weights and membership of each index were calculated by expert scoring and hierarchical analysis. And a soil fertility grade evaluation system with 16 indicators as the core was constructed, which studied cultivated land grade and quantitative obstacle factors, and the land distribution and the main obstacle factors of cultivated land at each grade were analyzed. The results showed that the cultivated land could be divided into eight grades according to the comprehensive index range of cultivated land quality grade (IFI value). The area of first to fourth class cultivated land accounted for 95.70% of the total cultivated land area of Arong Banner. Microbial diversity, irrigation and drainage capacity and forest network were the main obstacles to agricultural production in this region. In order to improve the production capacity of cultivated land in the black soil area of Arong Banner at the southern foot of the Daxing’an Mountains, the protection of cultivated land from grade one to four should be taken into account. The area of fifth to eighth class cultivated land only accounted for 4.30%. Technical modes such as converting farmland to grass or forest or grain and grass rotation could be implemented to restore the ecological environment and improve the fertility of cultivated land in fifth to eighth class cultivated land.

    Cadmium (Cd) pollution in farmland soil seriously affects the quality of cultivated land and food security. To provide new materials for the remediation of Cd pollution in farmland soil, the effects of co-pyrolysis biochar on Cd absorption and accumulation in rice and soil improvement were investigated by preparation and application of co-pyrolysis biochar. Field experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of three different amounts of peanut shell-corn straw co-pyrolysis biochar on Cd transport and migration characteristics and bioavailability in various organs of rice. The results showed that the application of co-pyrolysis biochar could reduce the accumulation of Cd in rice grains, reduce the toxicity to rice plants, increase soil fertility and promote the growth of rice. Compared with no co-pyrolysis biochar addition, the soil pH of biochar treatment increased by 0.06-0.12 units, and the contents of alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen, available phosphorus and available potassium increased by 37.20%-78.27%, 49.62%-134.10% and 20.79%-35.26%, respectively. After adding co-pyrolysis biochar, the available Cd content in soil decreased significantly by 11.11%-26.98% (P<0.05), and the Cd content in rice grain decreased significantly by 23.46%-47.49% (P<0.05). The application of peanut shell-corn straw co-pyrolysis biochar in the field can improve soil fertility, soil environmental quality, and reduce Cd content in rice grains. The effect was most significantly when the amount of peanut shell-corn straw co-pyrolysis biochar was 15 t/hm2.
