High competition in the early growth phase will suppress growth and reduce rice yields. Presence of weeds in the rice field ecosystem needs to be controlled. Weed control with herbicides is more effective than other controls. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the herbicide Cyhalofop-butyl in controlling weeds in the cultivation of direct seeds rice cultivation. The research was conducted in Sekaran village, Wonosari sub-district, Klaten district, Central Java. The method used was randomized block with seven treatments and four replications. The treatment consisted of a dose of the herbicide Cyhalofop-butyl 100 g.L<sup>-1 </sup>with levels: (50, 75, 100, 125, 150, and 175 L.ha<sup>-1</sup>), mechanical weeding and control (no weeding). The results showed that Cyhalofop-butyl at a dose of 50–175 L.ha<sup>-1</sup> was effective in controlling the weeds of <em>Echinochloa crus-galli, Leptochloa chinensis</em> and other weeds at 3 weeks after application up to 6 weeks after application, without causing phytotoxicity effect on rice plants, herbicide Cyhalofop-butyl does not affect the growth and production of rice but reduces competition between weeds and rice plans. Herbicide Cyhalofop-butyl applied at a dose of 50 - 175 L.ha<sup>-1 </sup>provide rice grain yield of 10,25 - 11,50 kg per plot.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) experiences intermittent water deficit and suffers from potassium (K) deficiency that seriously constrains its yield in the tropics. Currently, the interaction effect between deficit irrigation and K fertigation on growth and yield of cassava is unknown, especially during the early growth phase. Therefore, pot experiments were conducted under controlled greenhouse conditions using cassava cuttings. Treatments initiated at 30 days after planting included three irrigation doses (30%, 60%, 100% pot capacity) and five K (0.01, 1, 4, 16, and 32 mM) concentrations. The plants were harvested 90 days after planting. Decreasing irrigation dose to 30% together with 16 mM K lowered the leaf water potential by 69%, leaf osmotic potential by 41%, photosynthesis by 35%, stomatal conductance by 41%, water usage by 50%, leaf area by 17%, and whole-plant dry mass by 41%, compared with full-irrigated plants. Lowering the K concentration below 16 mM reduced the values further. Notably, growth and yield were decreased the least compared with optimal, when irrigation dose was decreased to 60% together with 16 mM K. The results demonstrate that deficit irrigation strategies could be utilized to develop management practices to improve cassava productivity by means of K fertigation under low moisture conditions.

When the fungus Fusarium oxysporum was cultured on a glucose–nitrate–salts medium, synthesis of nicotinic acid occurred only during the early growth phase and preceded the accumulation of fusaric acid. Radioactivity from DL-tryptophan-benzene ring-14C was efficiently incorporated into nicotinic acid obtained by acid hydrolysis of the mycelium, whereas DL-tryptophan-β-14C, L-aspartate-U-14C, and sodium acetate-2-14C were poor precursors. Under the conditions of these experiments, all four substrates were poor precursors of fusaric acid. It is concluded that different pathways are used in the biosynthesis of these two pyridine derivatives, the route to nicotinic acid probably involving metabolism of tryptophan via the reactions known to occur in Neurospora crassa.

In this study, benzyladenine (BA) and α- naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) are used to study the growth of pineapple fruit (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) in the early growth phase. Pineapple fruits are sprayed with BA or NAA at different concentrations (1, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60 mg.L-1) at both 0 and 3 days after flowering (DAF, 50 % dried flowers). Fruits are sampled every 15 days from 0 to 75 days to survey to weight, size and qualities of pineaple fruit. Besides, fruits (which are sprayed with BA or NAA at concentration 20 mg.L-1) are sampled at 15 days for the cell size observation. The results showed that the treatments with three highest concentration of BA or NAA (20, 40 và 60 mg.L-1) significantly increased fruit weights and fruit sizes. Exogenous BA or NAA at the concentration 20 mg.L-1 increased the fruit weights by increasing the number of flesh cells without negative effects on fruit qualities.
