Cadmium, a non-essential and toxic metal, negatively affects plant growth and productivity, and alters the plant's physiological processes necessary for its survival. The present study was designed to explore the individual and combined effects of calcium and salicylic acid (SA) on the morphology and physiology of Brassica juncea L. cv. Varuna under cadmium stress. The application of calcium (2...

Given that an effective combined foliar application of iodine (I), selenium (Se), and zinc (Zn) would be farmer friendly, compared to a separate spray each micronutrient, for the simultaneous biofortification grain crops, we effectiveness foliar-applied potassium iodate (KIO3, 0.05%), sodium selenate (Na2SeO4, 0.0024%), sulfate (ZnSO4∙7H2O, 0.5%), separately in their combination (as cocktail) m...

This study was conducted in Abu-Khaseb –basra Province season 2010 to the effect of foliar fertilization by iron that spray chelated two concentrations (20 and 40 ppm) addition control treatment

Kiwifruit requires a high quantity of nutrients that must be supplied through fertilization to obtain an optimum yield on a sustainable basis. This research was conducted to evaluate different fertilization methods including broadcast application (as control), deep placement of the fertilizer and fertigation, alone or in combination with foliar application and their effects on the yield, leaf m...

In order to study effect of salicylic acid and calcium foliar application on growth, yield and yield components of strawberry plants as a factorial in completely randomized experimental design with four replications. This factors included of salicylic acid in 3 levels (0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mM) and calcium in 2 levels (2.5 and 5 mM) spray on strawberry. Results showed that salicylic acid (0.25 mM)...

A study was undertaken to evaluate effectiveness of foliar spray with 33 plant extracts against leaf spot (Tikka) of groundnut caused by Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum. Bavistin and BAU-Biofungicide were included in the experiment as checks and spray of plain water represented control. Almost all treatments gave considerable reduction in disease incidence and increase in ...
