Salt stress induced alteration in growth characteristics of a grass Pennisetum alopecuroides.
Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses that adversely affect crop productivity and quality. The present investigation was carried out to study the alterations in the growth characteristics of a grass species, Pennisetum alopecuroides under the influence of sodium chloride (NaCl) salinity. From the results it is clear that shoot length of Pennisetum alopecuroides was increased by 13.17% a...
متن کاملIncorporating Controlled - Release Fertilizer Technology into Outplanting
The application of controlled-release fertilizers (CRF) at the time of planting offers a means to improve the establishment of forest tree seedlings. As compared to conventional fertilizers, the gradual pattern of nutrient release from CRF may better coincide with plant needs, minimize leaching, and improve fertilizer use efficiency. Many different CRF types are available and products differ in...
متن کاملGrowth and Photosynthetic Response of Pot-in-pot-grown Conifers to Substrate and Controlled-release Fertilizer
Container production of landscape conifers, including pot-in-pot (PIP) production, is increasing relative to field production in the northern United States. Because much of the research on PIP has been performed in the southern United States, this study focused on characterizing the growth and physiological response of PIP-grown conifers to fertilizer and substrate to improve production for gro...
متن کاملMineral nutrition and growth of containerized Pinus halepensis seedlings under controlled-release fertilizer
Low, moderate and high rates (3, 5 and 7 g/l, respectively) of two controlled-release fertilizer (CRF) types, Osmocote 9–13–18 and Osmocote 17–10–10 were evaluated for their effects on production of containerized Pinus halepensis planting stock. Both formulations had similar patterns of nutrient release, with high release rates during the first 2–3 months, in contrast with minimum seedling upta...
متن کاملInfluence of biochar, mycorrhizal inoculation, and fertilizer rate on growth and flowering of Pelargonium (Pelargonium zonale L.) plants
Peat is the most common substrate used in nurseries despite being a very expensive and a non-renewable material. Peat replacement with biochar could be a sound environmental practice, as it is produced from waste biomass, but evaluation of biochar as a potting substrate is needed. Ratios of peat:biochar of 100:0, 70:30, 30:70 (BC0, BC30, and BC70, respectively), two fertilizer rates (FERT1, FER...
