Drought stress is one of the serious threats to crop production. It causes significant deterioration growth and yield by inducing oxidative stress. The biochar arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi (AMF) can be an effective technique overcome drought Activated carbon (BC) has potential improve soil water holding capacity while AMF inoculation increase root surface area for better uptake water. However, their combined application as amendment against still needs scientific justification. That's why...
Abstract Nickel (Ni) is known as a plant micronutrient and serves component of many significant enzymes, however, it can be extremely toxic to plants when present in excess concentration. Scientists are looking for natural compounds that influence the development processes plants. Therefore, was decided use proline protective agent against Ni toxicity. Proline (Pro) popularly osmoprotectant regulate biomass developmental under variety environmental stresses, but its role modulation...
Abstract Pea ( Pisum sativum L.), a globally cultivated leguminous crop valued for its nutritional and economic significance, faces critical challenge of soil salinity, which significantly hampers growth production worldwide. A pot experiment was carried out in the Botanical Garden, The Islamia University Bahawalpur to alleviate negative impacts sodium chloride (NaCl) on pea through foliar application ascorbic acid (AsA). Two varieties Meteor (V1) Sarsabz (V2) were tested against i.e. 0 mM...
Thiourea (TU) is considered an essential and emerging biostimulant against the negative impacts of severe environmental stresses, including drought stress in plants. However, knowledge about foliar application TU to mitigate
Salinity is a major challenge for agricultural productivity, adversely affecting crop growth and yield. In recent years, various techniques have been developed to increase tolerance salinity, including seed priming. This study was carried out assess the effects of salicylic acid (SA) priming (0-, 10- 20-mM) in comparison with hydropriming on growth, physio-biochemical activities, yield two wheat varieties (AARI-11 Ujala-15) under 0- 170-mM sodium chloride (NaCl) toxicity. The exposure plants...
The present study was conducted to analyze the effect of different fencing regimes on a community structure perennial plant species in Cholistan desert. Major sites include Derawar Fort (Biodiversity Park IUB), Mauj Garh (Livestock Farm) And Lal Suhanra National (Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan Conservation and Breeding Center). In each site, thirty-three quadrats measuring 10 x m2 are laid out at random i-e., eleven sub (sand dune, inter dune clayey land). During parameter which we...
Cadmium stress significantly affects plant growth by disrupting essential physiological and biochemical functions. It slows nutrient intake, causing slowed development decreased biomass. Cd also produces reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress, which harms cell components like lipids, proteins, DNA. This lowers chlorophyll levels, making photosynthesis difficult stunting development. Cd's toxicity hormone balance, enzyme activity, structural integrity, leading to poor agricultural output....
Abstract Lead (Pb) toxicity is a significant environmental issue, especially in areas with past of industrial activities and mining. The existence Pb the soil can have negative impacts on plant growth development, it also pose risk to human health through food chain. Acidified carbon has shown promise as an effective management technology for mitigating toxicity. This study provides important insights into potential acidified biochar low-cost eco-friendly method managing Pb-contaminated...
Lead (Pb) toxicity imposes several morphological and biochemical changes in plants grown Pb-contaminated soils. Application of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) mitigating heavy metal stress has already been studied. However, the role EDTA stress, especially oilseed crops, is less known. Therefore, study aimed to explore potential effect foliar application 2.5 mM on two different varieties Brassica juncea L., i.e., Faisal (V1) Rohi (V2), with without 0.5 acetate [Pb(C2H3O2)2]...
Abstract Background The button mangrove ( Conocarpus erectus L.) is regarded as a peripheral species within communities. This particular has the ability to thrive in regions that are arid or semiarid, where there limited availability of nutrients. study provides evidence ecological dominance across various habitats, highlighting its adaptability and success throughout country Pakistan. We collected twelve populations from four distinct regions, including artificial forest plantations,...
Desert plants show specific mechanisms to thrive under prevailing harsh conditions. To study the survival mechanism(s) in native desert plant species, Lesser Cholistan Pakistan was surveyed and two potential salt secretory grass Aeluropus lagopoides Ochthochloa compressa, were selected from five saline sites. Both these grasses responded differentially environments by showing specialized of including excretion toxic ions through trichomes, vesicular glandular hairs leaf surface. In A....
