4 Main Objectives To develop sustainable crop production and improve plant tolerance to unfavorably
environmental conditions such as pests, salinity and submergence stresses, etc.

5 Focal Points - Eight Masters in Crop sciences field (Plan 12 MSc. in December 2020)
- Six domestic journal published (plan 10 domestic journal published in December, 2020) (1.
Effects of silicon foliar spray on growth and yield of black sesame variety ĐH-1 (Sesamum
indicum L.) cultivated on saline-affected soil; 2. The effects of brassinolide on the growth and
yield of sesame ADB1 variety; 3. Effects of salt watering on growth and yield of black sesame;
4. Isolation, selection of N-fixing, P-solubilizing and IAA releasing bacteria from
rhizosphere soil cultivated maize; 5. Isoiation, seiection of endopitytic bacieria from iviaim
for possessing abiuty of N-fixing, p_solubilizing, IAA-synthesis to produce nutrients for
plant; 6. Investigation of cultivation status of black sesame on undeposited alluvial soil in
Thot Not and O Mon district, Can Tho city).
- Submitted 5 manuscripts for international journals (1. Growth and yield response of black
sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) to foliar spray of amendments as plant growth regulators
and micronutrients; 2 Effects of waterlogging on the growth of different varieties of sesame
(Sesamum indicum L.; 3. Effects of gibberellic acid doses on growth, seed yield and oil
content in black sesame (Sesamum indicum L.); 4. Selenium improves drought tolerance in
sesame DH-1 (Sesamum indicum L.); 5. Improvement of nutrient uptake, yield of black
sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) and alluvial soil fertility in dyke by spent rice straw from
mushroom cultivation containing biofertilizer from potent strains of biocompost
containing Rhodopseudomonas palustris).
- Transfer new technology how to grow sesame in less water conditions in Dong Thap
province for 100 trainees
