One of the main environmental stresses that hinder crop development as well yield is salt stress, while use signal molecules such calcium (Ca) has a substantial impact on reducing detrimental effects different types. Therefore, factorial pot experiment in completely randomized design was conducted to examine beneficial role Ca (0, 2.5, and 5 mM) promoting physiological, biochemical, growth traits wheat plant under three conditions viz. 0, 30, 60 mM NaCl. Foliar application increased...
Drought is the main limiting abiotic environmental stress worldwide. Water scarcity restricts growth, development, and productivity of crops. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) a fundamentally cultivated cereal crop. This study aimed to evaluate effect grain-priming with arginine (0.25, 0.5, 1 mM) on growth performance some physiological aspects wheat plants under normal or drought-stressed conditions. Morphological parameters, photosynthetic pigments, soluble sugars, free amino acids, proline,...
Secondary metabolites of several plants, including esculin and digitoxin, which are cardiac glycosides, were previously employed for their therapeutic effects. The current study aims to investigate the functions main Na
Background and Objectives: Parsley herb has various biological properties used in food pharmaceutical industries.Biostimulants represent one area of research that the potential to increase medicinal aromatic plants (MAP) productivity.The aim this study was evaluate growth chemical composition parsley plant under some biostimulants treatments.Materials Methods: were subjected different concentrations L-tryptophan (LTRYP, 100 200 mg LG 1 ), trans-cinnamic acid (TCA, 10 20 ) distilled water as...
Ionizing radiation is abiotic stress limiting the growth and productivity of crop plants. Stigmasterol has positive effects on plant many crops. The role stigmasterol in alleviating ionizing metabolism development still unclear. Therefore, study aimed to investigate pretreatments with γ-radiation (0, 25, 50 Gy), foliar application 100, 200 ppm), their interaction growth, biochemical constituents wheat (Triticum aestivum L., var. Sids 12) Gamma at 25 Gy showed no significant difference...
In response to the global food crisis and imperative address soil degradation, international agricultural policy is actively working alleviate adverse impacts of salinity. As part this initiative, a field trial spanning two consecutive seasons (2019/20-2020/21) was conducted under saline conditions. The primary objective evaluate influence various compost sources, including vermicompost at rate 0.5 ton·fed-1 plant residues 5.0 ton·fed-1, as main plots. Subplots were established by applying...
Onion, as one of the strategic crops, is a heavy feeder for nitrogen (N) nutrient. Despite remarkable progress in manufacturing synthetic mineral fertilizers, their excessive use with plants negatively affects human health after eating. So, current research aims to reduce onion requirement keeping acceptable bulb yield without quality decline. field trial was carried out aiming assess different doses N [Usual dose and low (75% usual dose)] main plots. While zeolite [in presence absence it]...
Abstract Secondary metabolites of several plants, including esculin and digitoxin, which are cardiac glycosides, were previously employed for their therapeutic effects. The current study aims to investigate the functions main Na+ /K + transport inhibitor digitoxin antioxidant enhancing flax plant growth production under salinity. Exogenous treatment with 50 mg L − 1 100 used this work. According results work, foliar spraying or increased salinity tolerance plants. efficiency sustain ion...
Field experiments were carried out at Qaha farm, Qalyubia Governorate, Horticulture Research Institute, Agric. Res. cent., Egypt., to study the effect of 6 anti-stressor compounds on pepper under heat stress and insect infestation. Five anti-stresses classified as good desirable sources yield polyphenol oxidase activity (PPO) enzyme activities in leaves. Three these 5 anti-stress showed an increase peroxidase (POD) along with a high reduction whitefly Two three, namely aluminum silicate (AS)...
