Summary: This study investigates the impact of early-season plant-to-plant spatial uniformity on soybean yield at reduced seeding rates. It suggests new metrics to characterize plant-to-plant spacing and identifies the best metrics correlating with soybean yield. The findings emphasize the importance of spatial uniformity and its interaction with yield environments and plant densities in soybean production.

Summary: In this study, soybean-specific PGPR strains were isolated using soybean agglutin (SBA) as a tool. These strains showed an affinity for soybean, and they were able to produce beneficial substances for plant growth and colonize the soybean rhizosphere. Inoculation with these PGPR strains positively affected soybean growth and yield.

Summary: Knowledge of tree responses to planting density is crucial for optimizing plantation establishment practices. This review provides an overview of the management of planting density and recent advances, trends, and gaps in this field. Studies show that planting density affects stem diameter and volume, leading to increased productivity in high-density stands, especially for trees with smaller individual volume. Physiological studies indicate that species ecology, solar radiation, water requirements, and site-specific characteristics have a greater influence on plant growth than planting density.

Summary: Shading stress in the maize-soybean intercropping system reduces soybean growth and yield. Higher planting density leads to a slower growth rate and lower accumulation rate of carbohydrates in intercropped soybean. Shading stress promotes the allocation of assimilates into stems, ultimately reducing lodging resistance.

Summary: Planting date, seeding rate, relative maturity, and row spacing are key factors affecting soybean yield. Maximizing canopy cover before flowering improves seed yield. Combining early planting, optimum cultivars, high seeding rate, and narrow row spacing can significantly increase yield and profit compared to conventional practices.

Summary: The planting date of soybean significantly affects yield in fields infested with Macrophomina phaseolina. A study was conducted using eight genotypes under different planting dates and irrigation conditions. The results showed that in irrigated environments, the disease severity was significantly lower in May planting compared to April and June, while there was no significant difference in nonirrigated environments. Additionally, the yield of susceptible genotypes increased with later planting dates, while the yield of genotypes with moderate resistance remained high across all planting dates. This research suggests that early May to early June planting with appropriate cultivar selection provides maximum yield potential for soybean growers in western Tennessee and mid-southern regions.

Summary: This field experiment investigated the comprehensive effects of tillage intensity and planting density on rice growth and yield. The results showed that no tillage resulted in the highest rice yield and above-ground biomass. Increasing the number of transplanted seedlings per planting pit increased spike density and above-ground biomass, but did not significantly affect spikelets per panicle and photosynthetic indexes. Exceeding a certain number of transplanted seedlings led to decreased photosynthetic indexes. Optimizing planting density and tillage intensity is an effective way to achieve stable and high rice yield.

Summary: In the hippocampus, changes in the environment lead to rearrangement of active neurons or remapping of place cells. This study tracked calcium dynamics of hippocampal neurons and found that while overall population activities changed with fear conditioning, a small subset of neurons called environment cells remained active regardless of experiences. Decoding models showed that these cells, but not place cells, were able to predict the environment. This suggests that environment cells play a role in maintaining consistent cognition of distinct environments.
