Chromium (Cr) contamination in farmlands has become a serious environmental concern due to the excessive use of industrial wastewater as an irrigation source. Therefore, some important measures need be taken for reducing its mobility soil profile. A pot study was conducted evaluate effectiveness sugarcane bagasse derived biochar and acidified manure on Cr uptake by maize plant. Results showed that application significantly changed pH, improved crop growth well reduce antioxidant response...
In the present study, we investigated impact of different combinations wheat straw biochar, compost and biogas slurry on maize growth, physiology, nutritional status in less productive soils. The experiment was performed as a completely randomized block design greenhouse pot experiment. were applied with without biochar. results revealed that combination compost, enhanced cation exchange capacity (31%), carbon (83%), phosphorus (67%) potassium (81%) contents soil. Likewise, significant...
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...
Biochar enhances soil fertility by improving the physical, chemical and microbiological properties. The aim of this study was to investigate impact corn cob-derived biochar on enzymatic activity, organic carbon, aggregate stability microbial biomass carbon under drought stress. prepared from crushed cobs pyrolyzed at 300 °C 400 applied a ratio 1% (w/w) 3% filled in pots. In each pot, three field capacity (FC) levels, i.e., 100, 70 40%, were maintained gravimetrically. Results showed that...
Arsenic (As) contamination in the soil adversely affects crop productivity, grain quality, and human health. A pot experiment was performed to assess sole combined effects of Si biochar on growth, physiological antioxidant defense mechanisms, yield, quality maize. Soil treatments comprised control (no treatment), As, Si, biochar, + As placed a completely randomized design with three replications. toxicity significantly reduced chlorophyll (5.18%), b (33.87%), (11.67%), primary metabolites...
Background: Menstruation is a natural and essential physiological process in the reproductive life of women. However, adolescent girls often lack adequate knowledge regarding menstrual health hygiene, leading to misconceptions, stigma, poor practices. Educational institutions play critical role shaping awareness, particularly among future healthcare professionals. Understanding current level nursing students can guide targeted interventions promote literacy. Objective: To assess about...
Background: Human milk is the preferred feed for children. Some mothers, however, supplement their breast with formula because they are unable to satisfy requirements various reasons. Exclusive breastfeeding thought protect against infant morbidity, according some of studies. The prevalence exclusive in Pakistan 53.6 %. Hence, study designed determine difference morbidity among breastfed and formula-fed children Pakistan. Objectives: To compare differences between Methods: This comparative...
Application of biochar to agricultural soils is mostly used improve soil fertility. Experimental treatments were comprised two factors: i) drought at level, i.e., 80% and 40% water holding capacity (WHC) which was maintained on gravimetric basis ii) three levels control, 2 t ha-1 4 added soil. Experimentation done examine potential application enhance the growth attributes, relations, photosynthetic pigments antioxidants activities in maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings. Results study revealed...
Drought is one of the major agricultural problems which cause losses to crop productivity. It a worldwide problem and prevails in many parts world as threat agriculture. Potassium (K) considered be an essential nutrient that plays important role growth, development defense response plant under stressful conditions. This work investigated effects K drought tolerance chickpea seedlings by examining photosynthetic performance, total osmo-regulation substance contents antioxidative enzymes...
The chemical composition of thyme seeds Thymus vulgaris and phytochemicals were investigated using standard analytical methods in order to assess the numerous potential plant seeds. proximate analysis showed percentages moisture, ash, crude protein, lipids fibers content on dry weight basis as 7.00%, 10.00%, 7.55%, 35.00%, 9.87 % respectively. qualitative determination presence tannins, alkaloids, resins, flavonoides, phenols, saponins free glycosides. aqueous extract had acidic pH 6.2....
