ABSTRACT Water deficit adversely affects photosynthetic pigment synthesis, photochemical processes, and seedling quality. Exogenous foliar application of salicylic acid (SA) is hypothesized to contribute regulation increase stress tolerance. This study aimed evaluate the effect SA in alleviating effects water on activities quality Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi. seedlings. The seedlings were sub...

ABSTRACT Substrate composition is a major factor influencing seedling quality. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of biosolid as substrate component in initial growth Syagrus romanzoffiana (Cham.) Glassman seedlings. The experimental design was completely randomized, with six treatments, five replicates and seven plants per plot. treatments consisted substrates resulting from mixture su...

When seeds of Echinochloa crusgalli var. oryzicola are germinated in dark anaerobic conditions (99.995% N(2)), the seedlings do not have detectable protochlorophyll(ide). Two hours after exposure to light aerobic conditions, they begin to synthesize chlorophyll. The lag in greening is shorter in seedlings exposed to light for 24 hours before exposure to air. Seedlings maintained in light anaero...

Temperature and light are the key factors that affect quality of pumpkin rootstock seedlings’ growth process. Responses to temperature an important basis for optimizing greenhouse environment. In order determine quantitative effects on development (Cucurbita moschata cv. RTWM6018) seedlings, relationships between temperature, light, seedlings were established using regression analysis. The resu...

Abstract The use of alternative technologies involving biological processes, with economic and ecological gains, is desirable for both the expansion Musa spp. farming renovation areas low yields. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can stimulate plant growth, especially by increasing absorption phosphorus (P) other nutrients. This study analyzes influence AMF on growth physiology micropropagated...

There is a growing demand for high quality and sustainable food in the world this need falls within context of European Green Deal’s strategy “From Farm to Fork”. In order achieve these outcomes, use modern innovative technologies plant production protection required. The nanoparticles (NPs) agriculture horticulture an example such technology. However, research on effect length exposure metal s...
