This article presents the results of a study conducted under weakly saline soil conditions using collected chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) samples. High-yielding chickpea accessions such as FLIP 98-189c (25.5 t/ha), FLIP 98-140c (32.6 t/ha), FLIP 98-116c (26.6 t/ha), and FLIP 98-183c (25.7 t/ha) were identified and recommended for breeding purposes. Accessions FLIP 98-121c, FLIP 97-25c, FLIP 98-183c, and FLIP 98-189c demonstrated superior performance in terms of 1000-grain weight and are recommended as initial sources for breeding programs.  

Soil beneficial bacteria play an essential role in enhancing plant growth and protecting crops from soil-borne diseases. This study investigates the potential of specific soil bacteria as plant growth enhancers and biocontrol agents. We evaluated bacterial strains for their ability to promote plant growth, increase nutrient availability, and suppress plant pathogens. Results indicated that several bacterial strains significantly enhanced plant growth parameters such as root length, shoot height, and biomass production. Additionally, some strains exhibited biocontrol properties, inhibiting the growth of common soil-borne pathogens. Our findings suggest that these bacteria could be effectively utilized in sustainable agricultural practices as natural plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.  

This scientific article mainly provides information on the study and propagation of potato collection variety samples, their growth and development, and yield. The research was conducted in the experimental fields of the Karakalpak Research Institute of Agriculture in 2024. Today, potatoes are planted on more than 21.5 million hectares in more than 160 countries of the world, and more than 351 million tons of potatoes are harvested annually.

In the development of early-maturing, high fiber-yielding, long-fiber, high-yield, and disease- and pest-resistant cotton varieties, as well as in the identification of hybrids, it is essential to focus on studying their morphobiological and agronomic characteristics. In this regard, the effective use of hybridization methods in research is required.

This article presents the research results on the impact of fertilization rates on the number of chickpea plants and weeds in rainfed fields. The research was conducted at the “Zomin Bodomtepa Adiri” farm, located near the Zomin National Nature Park in the Zomin district.
