The decline in soil productivity due to intensive cultivation, unbalanced fertilization and climate change are key challenges future food security. There is no significant research conducted on the effect of organic amendments properties active carbon fractions organic-matter deficient soils under changing climate. Biochar (BC) a stabilized amendment produced from materials increasingly recognized as being able improve health crop productivity. present study was determine efficacy compost...
Abstract Lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L.), a widely cultivated leafy green, is valued for its rich content of bioactive compounds, including folates, vitamins, tocopherols, ascorbic acid, and antioxidants. This study aimed to evaluate the effects amino acid supplementation on growth nutrient hydroponically grown lettuce. A greenhouse experiment using completely randomized design (CRD) was conducted, with three replications plants per replication. There were 4 treatments (T 0 (Control), T 1...
Abstract Background Boron (B) deficiency is an important factor for poor seed cotton yield and fiber quality. However, it often missing in the plant nutrition program, particularly developing countries. The current study investigated B's effect on growth, yield, quality of Bt (CIM-663) non-Bt (Cyto-124) cultivars. experimental plan consisted twelve treatments: Control (CK); B at 1 mg·kg −1 soil application (SB1); 2 (SB2); 3 (SB3); 0.2% foliar spray (FB1); 0.4% (FB2); + (SB1 FB1); FB2); (SB2...
The relationships between salinity and mineral nutrition are extremely complex may change depending on many factors in soil-plant system. We investigated the contribution of silicon (Si at 50 mg kg−1 soil) potassium (K 40 60 K2O to improve salt tolerance sunflower grown with 100 mM sodium chloride (NaCl). experimental design was factorial based a completely randomized five replications. Added NaCl increased ion (Na+) accumulation by 966 percent shoots 1200 roots but reduced shoot (K+)...
The bulk of the world's phosphate reserves is located in sedimentary horizons that contain appreciable amounts carbonate. During beneficiation rocks, huge oversize rocks are rejected from crushers. This reject also mostly contains low tricalcium and high carbonate content. In this study, experiments have been carried out to reduce/eliminate content by leaching ground rock with dilute hydrochloric acid solution. Effects concentration, reaction time, temperature liquid/solid ratio (vol./wt....
Feed ingredients are the basic units in feed formulation. Behavior of individual ingredient dictates overall performance feed. Therefore, current studies were conducted to investigate biological value each both Chinese and Indian major carps before their merger into formula enhance fish growth cut down cost. Trial contained two treatments a control randomly received glass aquaria (3 × 2 ft) with 10 each. Fishes group fed on rice polish, T1 soybean meal T2 cotton seed @ 3 % wet biomass for 30...
Non-nutritive metals, especially cadmium (Cd), are present in P fertilizers; the long-term application of these fertilizers leads to Cd build-up soil. The current study aims evaluate impacts sources and rates on growth maize (Zea mays L.) bioavailability Cd. Twelve treatments including rock phosphate 4 g kg−1 (RP1); 8 (RP2); 12 (RP3)); single super 333 mg (SSP1); 444 (SSP2); 555 (SSP3); di-ammonium 130 (DAP1); 174 (DAP2); 218 (DAP3); mono-ammonium 115 (MAP1); 154 (MAP2); 193 (MAP3) two soil...
Water stress is one of the most important yield limiting factors in maize (Zea mays L.) around world, particularly developing countries which have limited access to reliable irrigation. can be overcome either by additional water resources or improving plant resistance. The use different organic and inorganic substances might improve resistance stress. Present study investigated protective role silicon (Si) chitosan under Experimental plan comprised two soil moisture regimes i.e., 100% field...
Brachionus calyciflorus is commonly found in fresh water ponds. Its production depends on unrelenting supply of Chlorella sufficient quantity. In the current studies a sample was collected from fish culture ponds by Wisconsin plankton net (64 µm mesh). The freshly stock concentrated and fractionated passing through 600, 200, 125, 75 38 sieves arranged vertically with gradual decrease pore size. pure were fed available laboratory. Algae gradually replaced yeast to reduce dependency labour...
The current study aimed to improve the nitrogen recovery efficiency (NRE) of maize under application balanced proportions ammoniacal-nitrogen (NH4+-N) and nitrate-nitrogen (NO3−-N) (1:1), as well determine economic impacts such fertilizers on productivity. A 3-year field was carried out in Sahiwal, Punjab, Pakistan during 2018–2020 growing seasons with autumn maize. In parallel, multi-location experiments were conducted at farmer’s fields Sahiwal same trials compared effects different like...
Labeo rohita was sampled to determine the contamination levels of chromium, lead, nickel, copper and manganese from wild (Trimmu Balloki Headworks) controlled fish ponds at Ravi Campus (UVAS) September December, 2013.Sampled were blotted dry, weighed liver intestine removed study histology metals concentration.Chromium seems ubiquitous detected in all water samples as well intestinal tissues experimental fish.Its level lowest organs collected UVAS while highest Headworks, main recipients...
