Assessment of irrigation scenarios to improve performances of Lingot bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in southwest France

In the context of climate change, producing the same amount of food with less water has become a challenge all over the world. This is also true for the Lingot bean production in the area of Castelnaudary of southwest France where market competition with imported bean has made it crucial to achieve high yields to maintain production in the area. The use of an appropriate and robust crop model can help to identify crop management solutions to face such issues. We used SSM-legumes, a crop model generic to legume species, as well as field observations recorded over five years on eight farms of the Castelnaudary area to assess the effect of different irrigation scenarios on bean yield and water consumption. First, it was demonstrated that the SSM-legumes model is robust in simulating the development and growth of Lingot bean in non-stressed or moderately stressed conditions of this region regarding water and nutrient availability. Then, the use of the model to compare irrigation scenarios provided guidance on how to improve irrigation management for Lingot bean production. These results showed that farmers could achieve slightly higher yields with less water by basing irrigation decisions on the water content of the soil.     

Assessing appetite of the swimming fish based on spontaneous collective behaviors in a recirculating aquaculture system

In order to realize the real-time appetite-based feeding in aquaculture, a novel and practical method, based on the quantification of the spontaneous collective behaviors, was proposed in this study to assess the real-time appetite of the swimming fish in a recirculating aquaculture system. First, foreground feature points of fish school were extracted using an improved complex network. Then, covariance, a modified social force model and a kinetic energy model were used to analyze the collective behaviors of the school from perspectives of dispersion degree, interaction force and the changing magnitude of the water flow field, respectively. Finally, the quantified behavioral characteristics were integrated and used to assess the appetite of fish school. The presented method shows its good performance in the expression of the collective behaviors representing five typical appetites (0.01, 0.52, 1.28, 2.26 and 2.92), and the assessing accuracy of the appetite of the school is also maintained at a low non-match rate ((2.19 ± 0.81)% best) in the context of ten different sampling durations.     

Electron Transport Through Photosystem II Is Not Limited By A Wide Range of Water Deficit Conditions In Field‐Grown Gossypium hirsutum

Despite exhaustive literature describing drought stress effects on photosynthesis in Gossypium hirsutum, the sensitivity of photosynthetic electron flow to water deficit is heavily debated. To address this, G. hirsutum plants were grown at a field site near Camilla, GA under contrasting irrigation regimes, and pre‐dawn water potential (Ψ_PD), stomatal conductance (g_s), net photosynthesis (P_N), actual quantum yield of photosystem II (Φ_PSII) and electron transport rate (ETR) were measured at multiple times during the 2012 growing season. Ψ_PD values ranged from ?0.3 to ?1.1 MPa. Stomatal conductance exhibited a strong (r² = 0.697), sigmoidal response to Ψ_PD, where g_s was ≤0.1 mol m^?2 s^?1 at Ψ_PD values ≤ ?0.86 MPa. Neither Φ_PSII (r² = 0.015) nor ETR (r² = 0.010) was affected by Ψ_PD, despite exceptionally low Ψ_PD values (?1.1 MPa) causing a 71.7 % decline in P_N relative to values predicted for well‐watered G. hirsutum leaves at Ψ_PD = ?0.3 MPa. Further, P_N was strongly influenced by g_s, whereas ETR and Φ_PSII were not. We conclude that photosynthetic electron flow through photosystem II is insensitive to water deficit in field‐grown G. hirsutum.

水分管理和钾肥施用对水稻产量和抗倒伏性的影响

探讨不同水分和钾肥管理对水稻产量和抗倒伏性的影响,为寒地水稻生产合理进行水分和钾肥管理提供理论依据。以当地主栽水稻品种龙粳31为材料,在淹水灌溉和干湿交替灌溉2种水分管理模式下,比较不施钾、钾肥基施和基肥∶穗肥=5∶5等3种钾肥管理形成的水稻群体,研究其对水稻产量和倒伏性能的影响。2种水分管理方式比较,干湿交替灌溉平均产量为8.33t/hm ²,比淹水灌溉增产3.48%;干湿交替处理有利于水稻植株重心高度降低,第1节（N1）、第2节（N2）节间长度缩短,单位节间干重增加,从而提高节间抗折力,N1、N2、第3节（N3）节间倒伏指数分别降低了13.23%、17.48%和15.27%。3种钾肥管理方式比较,施钾可以显著提高产量,产量表现为基肥∶穗肥=5∶5>钾肥基施>不施钾;钾可以促进水稻株高、鲜重、节间粗、茎壁厚、单位节间干重和节间抗折力提高,从而提高抗倒伏性能,3种钾肥管理水稻植株N1、N2、N3节间倒伏指数均为基肥∶穗肥=5∶5<钾肥基施<不施钾;对比于不施钾,钾肥基施处理N1、N2、N3节间倒伏指数分别降低了22.27%、22.04%和27.53%,基肥∶穗肥=5∶5处理N1、N2、N3节间倒伏指数分别降低了34.56%、35.48%和41.01%。结果表明通过干湿交替水分管理配合合理的钾肥管理可以明显提高水稻产量和降低植株倒伏风险。

Incubation success and habitat selection of shore‐spawning kokanee Oncorhynchus nerka: effects of water‐level regulation and habitat characteristics

Changes to water‐level regimes have been known to restructure fish assemblages and interfere with the population dynamics of both littoral and pelagic species. The effect of altered water‐level regimes on shore‐spawning kokanee Oncorhynchus nerka incubation success was evaluated using a comprehensive in situ study in Lake Pend Oreille, ID, USA. Survival was not related to substrate size composition or depth, indicating that shore‐spawning kokanee do not currently receive a substrate‐mediated survival benefit from higher winter water levels. Substrate composition also did not differ among isobaths in the nearshore area. On average, the odds of an egg surviving to the preemergent stage were more than three times greater for sites in downwelling areas than those lacking downwelling. This study revealed that shoreline spawning habitat is not as limited as previously thought. Downwelling areas appear to contribute substantially to shore‐spawning kokanee recruitment. This research illustrates the value of rigorous in situ studies both for testing potential mechanisms underlying population trends and providing insight into spawning habitat selection.
