Application of Zinc, Iron and Boron Enhances Productivity and Grain Biofortification of Mungbean

Muhammad Zafar et al.

Summary: Deficiencies in essential vitamins, iron, and zinc affect more than half of the global population. Agronomic biofortification of pulses with these nutrients offers a pragmatic solution to combat hidden hunger and improve crop production. This study conducted three field experiments to evaluate the impact of soil and foliar application of these nutrients on mungbean yield and seed biofortification. The results showed that soil application enhanced the yield performance of mungbean, while foliar application significantly increased the contents of zinc, iron, and boron in the seeds.

Alleviating effects of salicylic acid spray on stage-based growth and antioxidative defense system in two drought-stressed rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars

Asma et al.

Summary: Approximately 33% of arable land globally is susceptible to drought, greatly impacting the yield and productivity of cereal crops. In this study, two rice genotypes, HTT-138 (drought tolerant) and HTT-39 (drought-sensitive), were evaluated under various water treatments. The results showed reduced leaf gas exchange parameters and water use efficiency under water deficient conditions, but these effects were mitigated by foliar spray of salicylic acid. Overall, salicylic acid application enhanced plant growth and yield in cereal crops, making it a useful tool for abiotic stress environments.

Efficacy of priming wheat (Triticum aestivum) seeds with a benzothiazine derivative to improve drought stress tolerance

Arwa Abdulkreem AL-Huqail et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of a benzothiazine (BTh) derivative on wheat under normal and drought conditions. Drought significantly hindered plant growth, altered plant composition, reduced photosynthetic pigments, and affected nutrient uptake. However, seed priming with BTh alleviated water stress, enhancing plant growth, nutrient uptake, and antioxidant production. These findings suggest that BTh seed priming can effectively improve wheat growth and tolerance to drought stress, benefiting growers and meeting food demand.

Melatonin as a Foliar Application and Adaptation in Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) Crops under Drought Stress

Sidra Yasmeen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of drought stress on two varieties of lentil and the potential of melatonin in enhancing lentil drought tolerance. The results show that drought stress decreases various morphological and biochemical characteristics in lentil plants, while increasing indicators of oxidative damage. However, the application of melatonin mitigates the negative impact of drought stress and improves plant growth and antioxidant activities. The findings suggest that foliar application of melatonin offers new possibilities for promoting lentil drought tolerance.
