The reproductive stage of cotton ( sp.) is highly sensitive to waterlogging. The identification of potential elite upland cotton () cultivar(s) having higher waterlogging tolerance is crucial to expanding cotton cultivation in the low-lying areas.

In this relation, during two successive wheat-growing seasons in 2018 and 2019, pot experiments were conducted to assess relationship among N fertilizer, yield and efficiency of N use in contemporary wheat varieties. Ten varieties of wheat viz.

To assess the relationship among N, root traits, and the yield of (dry season irrigated) rice, a pot experiment was performed in the Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh, during the rice season of 2020-2021. Three rice varieties, namely BRRI dhan29, Hira-2, and Binadhan-10, were planted at four N doses: 0 kg ha (N), 70 kg ha (N), 140 kg ha (N), and 210 kg ha (N).

To evaluate this link, a pot experiment was conducted in the net house of the Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh during the (dry season irrigated) rice growing season of 2019-20. Thirteen cultivars, named BRRI dhan29, BRRI dhan58, BRRI dhan67, BRRI dhan74, BRRI dhan81, Binadhan-8, Binadhan-10, Hira-2, Tej gold, SL8H, Jagliboro, Rata boro, and Lakhai, were used following a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications.
