Evaluation of Ameliorative Role of Biochar on Chromium Toxicity in Bottle Gourd

The present attempt was made to elucidate the ameliorative role of Biochar (BC) in response to chromium toxicity on bottle gourd seed germination. In this study, seeds were grown in pot experiment with six treatments (Control, Low Cr-20mg/kg, High Cr-100mg/kg, BC-2%, BC-2%+Low Cr-20mg/kg, BC-2%+High Cr-100mg/kg). Harvesting was done after 40 days of development. Growth parameters, […]

Allelopathic effect of Oryza sativa L. (Rice) straw on Echinochloa crus-galli L. (Barnyard grass) and Ludwigia octovalvis (Primrose-willow)

This experimental research determined the allelopathic effects of Oryza sativa L. straw filtrate and fine cuttings on the seed germination, seedling emergence, growth, and dry weight of Echinochloa crus-galli L. and Ludwigia octovalvis. It compared the average percent inhibition of Oryza sativa L. (rice) straw fine cuttings treatments against the positive and negative treatments. It […]

Canopy effect of Prosopis juliflora on selected grass species by using soil aqueous extract in Afar Regional State, Ethiopia

Allelopathy effect of Prosopis juliflora canopy soil aqueous extracts on tropical grass species such as Cenchrus cillaris, Paspalidium desertorum and Lintonia nutans were tested under in vitro conditions. Leaf litter falling under canopy soil was collected and tested for allelopathic effects of soil aqueous extract under natural conditions. All the soil aqueous extracts showed significantly […]

Exogenous application of Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs) improves the nutritional status of Maize grown under salinity stress in response to Etiolation and De-etiolation conditions

Plant growth and developmental processes are affected by both absences of light and salinity stress. Light and salinity affect the plant’s essential nutrients by affecting the mineral uptake through the rooting system. A pot experiment was conducted under the ambient condition of Turbat, Balochistan, to explore etiolation and de-etiolation response of maize hybrid (SP-17S23) to […]
