农业是巴基斯坦的支柱产业之一。然而,在过去几年中,由于外商在农业领域的直接投资不足以及气候变化,特别市持续的气温上升,严重影响着巴基斯坦农业增长速率,特别对种植业和畜牧业受到的影响最大。中国一直以来都是巴基斯坦重要的外商投资国之一。在过去十年中,伴随着中巴经济走廊(CPEC)的建设和完善,来自中国的直接投资不断攀升,从2013年开始,中国成为巴基斯坦最大的外商投资来源国。基于此,本研究以中国对巴基斯坦外商投资时间序列和部门差异数据为基础,结合近年来巴基斯坦城市化发展,通过自回归分布滞后模型(ARDL)探讨影响该国农业发展要素(外商投资、通货膨胀率、农业就业人口)的长期和短期影响,进而提出巴基斯坦农业发展的政策措施。本研究中的约束检验结果验证了模型变量之间存在长期关联关系。实证结果表明,来自中国的外商直接投资对巴基斯坦农业增长具有显著、积极的短期和长期影响。此外,本文利用误差修正模型(ECM)分析不同变量之间的收敛均衡路径,发现,农业就业、通货膨胀和人均GDP等其他因素对农业生产率有显著的正向影响,而农业出口对提高农业生产率的作用不大。根据上述定量分析结果,我们认为,为了一进步发展巴基斯坦农业生产潜力、促进全国经济的健康发展,尤其是在全球气候变化背景下不断提升区域经济韧性,巴基斯坦各级政府和部门应加大外资尤其是来自中国的投资力度,尤其是要加大金融体制改革和制度创新,让来自中国的外商投资能够得到更多的收益,从而实现依托中巴经济走廊、以农业发展为核心的经济发展目标。

Lodging in maize leads to yield losses worldwide.In this study,we determined the effects of traditional and optimized nitrogen management strategies on culm morphological characteristics,culm mechanical strength,lignin content,root growth,lodging percentage and production in maize at a high plant density.We compared a traditional nitrogen(N)application rate of 300 kg ha–1(R)and an optimized N application rate of 225 kg ha^(–1)(O)under four N application modes:50%of N applied at sowing and 50%at the 10th-leaf stage(N1);100%of N applied at sowing(N2);40%of N applied at sowing,40%at the 10th-leaf stage and 20%at tasseling stage(N3);and 30%of N applied at sowing,30%at the 10th-leaf stage,20%at the tasseling stage,and 20%at the silking stage(N4).The optimized N rate(225 kg ha^(–1))significantly reduced internode lengths,plant height,ear height,center of gravity height and lodging percentage.The optimized N rate significantly increased internode diameters,filling degrees,culm mechanical strength,root growth and lignin content.The application of N in four split doses(N4)significantly improved culm morphological characteristics,culm mechanical strength,lignin content,and root growth,while it reduced internode lengths,plant height,ear height,center of gravity height and lodging percentage.Internode diameters,filling degrees,culm mechanical strength,lignin content,number and diameter of brace roots,root volume,root dry weight,bleeding safe and grain yield were significantly negatively correlated with plant height,ear height,center of gravity height,internode lengths and lodging percentage.In conclusion,treatment ON4 significantly reduced the lodging percentage by improving the culm morphological characteristics,culm mechanical strength,lignin content,and root growth,so it improved the production of the maize crop at a high plant density.

Carbon dots(CDs)have gained unprecedented attention as a novel luminescent zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterial owing to their diverse industrial applications.Herein,we reported the sus-tainable synthesis of fluorescent CDs from papaya peel waste,acting as a natural carbon orig-inator.As-prepared CDs and reduced graphene oxide(RGO)were fabricated in the composites through a facile one-step hydrothermal method.Synthesized RGO/CDs(RC)nanocomposites were characterized using spectroscopic,diffraction,and electron-microscopic ***-posites with variable RGO to CD mass ratios were tested for photodegradation of textile dye methylene blue(MB).The highest photocatalytic activity(degradation efficiency of 87%in 135 min)was obtained in the nanocomposite containing a 2꞉1 mass ratio(RC2).The RGO sheets in the nanocomposite acted as media for electron acceptors,promoting the fast transfer and sep-aration of photoinduced electrons during CDs excitation,thus preventing the recombination of the electron and holes.Based on the agar well diffusion assay,the nanocomposites exhibited ex-cellent antibacterial activity than other tested materials against Bacillus subtilis(Gram-positive)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(Gram-negative)bacterium.The largest inhibition zone area(22 mm),i.e.,the highest antimicrobial activity,was obtained in the nanocomposite tested against Gram-positive strains.Taken together,the synergistic effect of RGO and CDs enhanced the pho-tocatalytic and antibacterial performance of synthesized nanocomposite material.

Drought is considered one of the leading abiotic constraints to agricultural crop production globally.Present study was conducted to assess the effects of different drought treatments(viz.Control,10%PEG,and 20%PEG)on seed germination,germination indices,seedling traits,and drought tolerance indices of sesame.Our results showed that maximum reduction in the studied parameters was observed at higher PEG concentration(i.e.,20%PEG).As compared to control,the drought treatments viz.10%and 20%PEG decreased the values for germination indices,such as germination percentage,coefficient of variation of germination time,germination index,and seedling vigor index.Similarly,for seedling traits,the values were decreased for root length,shoot length,root shoot ratio,root fresh weight,shoot fresh weight,root dry weight and shoot dry weight under 10%and 20%PEG treatments significantly in comparison with control.Furthermore,relative to control,the values for drought tolerance indices,such as germination drought tolerance index,root length drought tolerance index,shoot length drought tolerance index,total seedling length drought tolerance index,root fresh weight drought tolerance index,shoot fresh weight drought tolerance index,total fresh weight drought tolerance index,root dry weight drought tolerance index,shoot dry weight drought tolerance index and total dry weight drought tolerance index were also reduced under 10%and 20%PEG treatments,respectively.Our results confirms that drought impact on seed germination and seedling traits could be quantified by using different indices which can further help to design drought adaptation and mitigation strategies.Based on these results it can be concluded that germination indices,seedling traits,and drought tolerance indices have great potential to simulate drought stress impacts on different crop traits thus they should be used in all kinds of stress related studies.

Root-knot nematodes being omnipresent in agricultural and horticultural soils are tallied among the most important economic pathogens around the world.For successful parasitism,these nematodes use various strategies to control and manipulate the host plant’s cell machinery.These strategies include the mole-cular mimicry of some host genes by some nematode secreted effector proteins,secretion of cell wall digesting enzymes and other effector proteins that are responsible for the suppression of defence by the host plant.All these secretions which are released through the stylet,contribute to the formation of specialized feeding sites or giant cells.The effector proteins interfere with the normal physiology,cytology and biochemistry of the host plant.The present review brings novel insights by summarizing some novel effectors that have been discovered recently like MgPDI,MiMIF,MiIDL1,MiISE6,Mg16820,etc.It also discusses some novel mechanisms through which these effector proteins target different pathways of host plants and thus facilitate nematode parasitism.

Lodging stress results in grain yield and quality reduction in wheat. Uniconazole, a potential plant growth regulator significantly enhances lignin biosynthesis and thus provides mechanical strength to plants in order to cope with lodging stress. A field study was conducted during the 2015–2016 and 2016–2017 growing seasons, to investigate the effects of uniconazole sole application or with micronutrient on the lignin biosynthesis, lodging resistance, and production of winter wheat. In the first experiment, uniconazole at concentrations of 0(CK), 15(US1), 30(US2), and 45(US3) mg L^-1 was applied as sole seed soaking, while in the second experiment with manganese(Mn) at concentration of 0.06 g L^-1 Mn, 0.06 g L^-1 Mn+ 15 mg L^-1 uniconazole(UMS1), 0.06 g L^-1 Mn+30 mg L^-1 uniconazole(UMS2), and 0.06 g L^-1 Mn+45 mg L^-1 uniconazole(UMS3), respectively. Uniconazole sole application or with micronutrient significantly increased the lignin content by improving the lignin-related enzyme activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase, tyrosine ammonialyase, and peroxidase, ameliorating basal internode characteristics, and breaking strength. The spike length, spike diameter, spikes/plant, weight/spike, yield/spike, and grain yield increased and then decreased with uniconazole application at a higher concentration, where their maximum values were recorded with UMS2 and US2 treatments. The lignin accumulation was positively correlated with lignin-related enzyme activities and breaking strength while, negatively correlated with lodging rate. Uniconazole significantly improved the lignin biosynthesis, lodging resistance, and grain yield of winter wheat and the treatments which showed the greatest effects were uniconazole seed soaking with micronutrient at a concentration of 30 mg L^-1 and 0.06 g L^-1 , and uniconazole sole seed soaking at a concentration of 30 mg L^-1 .

Glaciers in the northern Pakistan are a distinctive source of freshwater for the irrigation,drinking and industrial water supplies of the people living in those regions and downstream. These glaciers are under a direct global warming impact as indicated in many previous studies. In this study, we estimated the glacier dynamics in terms of Equilibrium Line Altitude(ELA), mass balance and the snout position variation using remote sensing data between 2001 and 2018. Six glaciers, having area≥ 20 km2 each, situated in the Chitral region(Hindukush Mountains) were investigated in this study. Digital Elevation Model(DEM) and available cloud-free continuous series of Landsat and Sentinel satellite images from minimum snow cover season were used to monitor the variability in the studied glaciers by keeping the status of glaciers in year 2001 as a reference. The annual climatic trends of mean temperature and total precipitation from Chitral weather station were detected using the nonparametric Mann-Kendall’s test. Results revealed a general increase in the ELA, decrease in the glacier mass balance and the retreat of snout position.Average upward shift in the ELA for the entire study area and data period was ~345 ± 93 m at a rate of^13 m.a-1 from the reference year’s position i.e.~4803 m asl. Estimated mean mass balance for the entire study area indicated a decline of-0.106 ± 0.295 m w.e. a-1. Periods of snout retreat and advance in different glaciers were found but the mean value over the entire study area was a retreat of-231 ± 140 m.No obvious relationship was found between the glacier variation trends and the available gauged climatic data possibly due to the presence of debris cover in ablation zones of all the studied glaciers which provides insulation and reduces the immediate climatic effects.
