Abstract: China possesses abundant resources of saline-alkali land; however, its utilization rate remains low. Triticale, known for its strong resistance to adversity and high forage value, presents significant development potential. This study aims to identify triticale resources suitable for cultivation in saline-alkali land through a method of salt-tolerance identification conducted throughout the entire growth period, thereby providing new insights for agricultural development in these regions. In this research, 48 triticale resources were selected. To address the issue of uneven soil salinity distribution within the plow layer, a strategy of minimal yet frequent drip irrigation was employed to maintain an approximate salinity level of 0.7% during the identification period. Under this condition, systematic comparisons were made regarding survival rates, fresh weight, dry weight, and overall growth performance of triticale resources. Using a widely adopted five-level evaluation standard, nine triticale resources with better comprehensive performance were obtained: specifically HS-006, HS-518, HS-476, HS-004, HS-520, HS-541, HS-447, HS-530 and HS-139. These selected resources not only exhibited high salt-tolerance but also demonstrated strong biomass production potential—indicating their viability for cultivation in saline-alkali land. This study underscores the critical importance of employing scientific methods for soil salinity regulation when screening plant resources. The identification results obtained from this research provide a reliable foundation for subsequent variety breeding and promotion efforts.Abstract: China possesses abundant resources of saline-alkali land; however, its utilization rate remains low.

Abstract: In order to deeply solve the research focus, development status and hotspots in the field of peach tree fertilisation, and to provide a reference for the future research and development direction of peach tree fertilisation practice. In this paper, based on CNKI and Web of Science core paper databases, we searched the relevant literature during 2000-2024, and using analysis tools such as VOSviewer and CiteSpace, we carried out visual analysis of the number of articles, issuing institutions, authors, as well as keyword co-occurrences, clustering, and emergence, etc., and drew a knowledge map in the field of peach tree fertilisationThe results show that in recent years, peach tree fertilisation has become the most important topic in the field. The results show that the research on peach tree fertilization has made remarkable progress in recent years, especially in improving fruit quality, optimizing fertilization strategies, and reducing environmental pollution, which has become a research hotspot. The number of articles published per year shows a general upward trend, and a large-scale research team and research institutions have been formed. Keywords such as "yield", "quality" and "soil nutrients" are still the hot spots of current and future research. It is expected that "formula fertilization", "biofungi fertilizer", "bag-controlled slow-release fertilizer" may become the hot research direction in the field of peach tree fertilization.Abstract: In order to deeply solve the research focus, development status and hotspots in the field of peach tree fertilisation, and to provide a reference for the future research and development direction of peach tree fertilisation practice.
