This study used a factorial experimental design to investigate effects oak leaf extract, biofertilizer, soil containing powder biochemical parameters four tomato genotypes throughout pre-flowering pre-fruiting stages development. experiment had two components. first component represented (two sensitive tolerant), while second treatment group, which included irrigated plants (SW), untreated stressed (SS), treated with (SOS), extract (SOES), biofertilizers (SOBS). When compared or control plants, drought treatments SS, SOS, SOES, SOBS conditions at their combination significantly lowered shoot length (12.95%), total fruit weight per (33.97%), relative content (14.05%), chlorophyll (26.30%). reduction values (17.58%), fresh (22.08%), (42.61%) were larger in tolerant genotypes, recorded percentages 8.36, 8.88, 25.32% length, weight, plant, respectively.

Abstract In recent decades, the demand for vegetables has increased significantly due to blooming global population. Climate change affected vegetable production by increasing frequencies and severity of abiotic biotic stresses. Among stresses, drought salinity are major issues that possess severe threats on production. Many (e.g., carrot, tomato, okra, pea, eggplant, lettuce, potato) usually sensitive salt stress. The defence mechanisms plants against stress have been extensively studied in model plant species field crops. Better understanding susceptibility stresses will help towards development more tolerant genotypes as a long-term strategy these However, intensity challenges also warrants immediate approaches mitigate enhance short term. Therefore, this review enlightens updated knowledge responses (physiological molecular) potentially effective strategies Moreover, we summarized different technologies such seed priming, genetic transformation, biostimulants, nanotechnology, cultural practices adopted under We propose conventional breeding, engineering, crop management should be combined generate resistance cultivars adopt smart cultivation sustainable changing climate.

Silicon (Si), despite being abundant in nature, is still not considered a necessary element for plants. Si supplementation plants has been extensively studied over the last two decades, and role of alleviating biotic abiotic stress well documented. Owing to noncorrosive nature sustainability elemental Si, fertilization agricultural practices gained more attention. In this review, we provide an overview different smart fertilizer types, application fertilizers agriculture, availability fertilizers, experiments conducted greenhouses, growth chambers, open fields. We also discuss prospects promoting as among farmers research community sustainable agriculture yield improvement. Literature review empirical studies have suggested that Si-based expected increase future. With potential nanotechnology, new nanoSi (NSi) applications may further use efficiency fertilizers. However, general awareness scientific investigation NSi need be thoughtfully considered. Thus, believe can insight into promote crop

Climate change poses major challenges for agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions, with drought conditions severely affecting water-intensive crops such as tomatoes. This study evaluates the efficacy of organic amendments, derived from horse manure, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on enhancing tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) fruit quality soil health under field conditions. The experimental design included two irrigation regimes (well-watered stress) levels vermicompost application (C1 5 t ha−1 C2 10 ha−1), applied individually or combination AMF. results indicate that stress reduced growth yield, while osmoprotectant accumulation, antioxidant enzyme activity, bioactive compound increased, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity also increased. Notably, biostimulants application, especially (C1+AMF), counteracted adverse effects drought, compared to control, by significantly yields (60%), well increasing ascorbic acid (59%) free amino acids content (90%). These treatments improved compounds nutrient uptake fruit. Furthermore, biostimulant positively affected physicochemical properties soil. obtained confirm can be suitable improving crop sustainability adaptability water regions.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an important vegetable crop around the world, and water scarcity soil salinization are two major unfavorable factors limiting fruit yield quality of greenhouse tomato in arid semi-arid regions. The application exogenous silicon has been reported to enhance under salt or drought stress, but its effect combined salt-drought stress remains unclear. A two-season (autumn 2021 spring 2022) experiment was conducted with three irrigation levels (I1, 90%−100% θf, where θf field capacity; I2, 70%−80% θf; I3, 50%−60% θf), salinity (S0, 0.1%, g/g; S1, 0.4%, g/g) rates (T0, 0 mM; T1, 2.4 mM) explore their effects on leaf content, photosynthetic parameters, yield, nutrient productivity (WP), nitrogen uptake utilization, (NWP) economic benefit drip-irrigated tomato. results showed that deficit exerted significant inhibiting water-nitrogen productivity, inhibition alleviated by application, which increased content 67.0%, net rate (Pn) 25.3%, 12.3%, WP 11.9%, 10.0% (titratable acids) - 27.4% (soluble sugars) NWP 9.2% 26.1% average. average over growing seasons 66.01, 54.29 44.31 t ha−1 I1, I2 71.9%, 65.2% 63.0%, Pn 11.1%, 12.9% 7.6%, 12.8%, 16.2%, 8.1% at levels, respectively.
