Hint:NPK is the key component in many of the processes required to hold outgrowth. They also play a role in a series of functions essential for well plant growth, contributing to structural strength, crop quality, seed production, and more. They are imperative in a variety of other processes...
NPK to manage the crops and it further aggravate the deficiency of micronutrients which is now major concern for all because it is affecting human and animal nutrition along with plants. This deficiencyis concerns not only the plant nutrition but has far reaching implication in form of nutritional...
The soil microbiota is associated with the formation and maintenance of the stability of aggregates for the production of proteins and extracellular polysaccharides, and can be a determining factor in controlling the diversity of vegetable and other orga
Biochar depending on its properties, alters the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the soil (Gul et al.2015). Controlled pyrolysis condition of biochar allows retention of the nutrients and proves to be an advantageous nutrient supplement for plants. The overall nutritional content ...
In the second factor, three water-soluble NPK fertilizers including 19-6-20, 12-12-36 and 20-20-20 were applied separately throughout the entire vegetative and reproductive stage to plants at the concentration of 1 g L−1. According to the results, NI-W and NI-B reduced the leaf ...
The individual role of biochar, compost and PGPR has been widely studied in increasing the productivity of plants by inducing resistance against phyto-pathogens. However, the knowledge on combined effect of biochar and PGPR on plant health and management of foliar pathogens is still at juvenile stag...
Recently, attention has been paid to CaP NPs as emerging materials able to deliver physiologically rel- evant macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, NPK) to plants, for sustainable applications in agriculture18–23. Conventional fertilizers, composed of highly water-soluble salts, are ...
About 40–70% of N and 80–90% of P applied as normal fer- tilizers are lost to the environment or chemically bound in the soil and are unavailable to plants1–5. These losses come at a large economic and environmental cost. The low efficiency of P fertilizers is attributed to the ...
expression and works in conjunction with other hormones through a signaling cascade to ensure better plant growth and development under SS. The present review offers the recent progress made in understanding the role of JA in mitigating the salinity stress in plants. We have comprehensively discussed...
As a new possibility to save fertiliser consumption and to avoid environmental contamination, chitosan nanoparticles were used for controlled release of NPK fertilisers (Corradini et al., 2010). Other interesting advantage of molecules encapsulation is the increased stability of bioactive. An example is...
