Abstract Background Nitrogen (N) availability is crucial in regulating plants’ abiotic stress resistance, particularly at the seedling stage. Nevertheless, plant responses to N under salinity conditions may vary depending on soil’s NH 4 + NO 3 − ratio. Methods In this study, we investigated effects of different :NO ratios (100/0, 0/100, 25/75, 50/50, and 75/25) growth physio-biochemical soybean seedlings grown controlled saline (0-, 50-, 100-mM L 1 NaCl Na 2 SO , a 1:1 molar ratio). Results We observed that shoot length, root leaf-stem-root dry weight decreased significantly with increased levels compared control. Moreover, there was significant accumulation Cl hydrogen peroxide (H O ), malondialdehyde (MDA) but impaired ascorbate-glutathione pools (AsA-GSH). They also displayed lower photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll-a chlorophyll-b), K ion, /Na ratio, weakened •− -H -scavenging enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione reductase both levels, while reduced ascorbate dehydroascorbate stress, demonstrating their sensitivity environment. concentrations proline, glycine betaine, total phenolic, flavonoids, abscisic acid stresses exhibited indole acetic acid, gibberellic cytokinins, zeatine riboside, which account for biomass. However, caused differential response alleviate toxicity. Soybean supplemented optimal (T3 = 25:75 T 50:50) ABA improved pigments, hormones, biomass higher ratios. optimized H MDA, AsA-GSH status favor seedlings. Conclusions summary, followed order 50:50 > 0:100 75:25 100:0 morpho-physio-biochemical SS conditions. Accordingly, suggest applying (25/75 can improve resistance

Wheat, a staple food crop globally, faces the challenges of limited water resources and sustainable soil management practices. The pivotal elements current study include integration activated acacia biochar (AAB) in wheat cultivation under varying irrigation regimes (IR). A field trial was conducted Botanical Garden, University Punjab, Lahore during 2023-2024, designed as split-split-plot arrangement with RCBD comprising three AAB levels (0T, 5T, 10T, T = tons per hectare) cultivars (Dilkash-2020, Akbar-2019, FSD-08) receiving five IR (100%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50% capacity). Biochar amended showed improved BET surface area, pore size, volume. Carbon recovery (45%) carbon sequestration capacity (49%) 10T-AAB were better than non-amended (0.43% 0.13%, respectively). amendment significantly soil's microporosity retention capacity, increasing it by 1.1 2.2 times, respectively. Statistical analysis that reduction negatively affected plant growth yield. increased sugar contents (14%), relative content (10-28%), membrane stability index (27-55%), photosynthetic pigments (18-26%) leaves deficit among all cultivars. Maximum stress markers (catalase, proline, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase) observed from Akbar 0T-AAB, least irrigated Dilkash-2020 soil. Among cultivars, to be best for maximum yield, followed FSD-08 When compared other levels, had highest yield enhancement (12, 11, 9.2 times Dilkash-2020, FSD-08, Hence, enhanced production improving properties, drought resilience, attributes.

Abstract Microplastic (MP) pollution in terrestrial ecosystems is gaining attention, but there limited research on its effects leafy vegetables when combined with heavy metals. This study examines the impact of three MP types—polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polystyrene (PS)—at concentrations 0.02, 0.05, 0.1% w/w, along cadmium (Cd) biochar (B), germination, growth, nutrient absorption, metal uptake red amaranth ( Amaranthus tricolor L.). We found that different types did not negatively affect germination parameters like rate, relative vigor, speed. However, they increased phytotoxicity decreased stress tolerance compared to an untreated control (CK1). The presence MPs, particularly PS type, reduced phosphorus potassium while enhancing Cd uptake. For example, treatments 0.02 CdB, 0.05 0.1 CdB content A. seedlings by 158%, 126%, 44%, respectively, treatment (CK2). Additionally, contamination led plant height, leaf dry matter content, fresh weights, indicating adverse growth. Moreover, MPs bioconcentration factors translocation for Cd, suggesting might act as carriers absorption plants. On positive side, addition improved several root parameters, including length, volume, surface area, number tips potential benefits Our shows combination reduces growth increases risk food crops. Further needed understand how various species, which will aid developing targeted mitigation strategies exploring mechanisms through Finally, investigating application conjunction other amendments mitigating these could be key addressing agricultural systems.

Abstract Population and food demand increased rapidly so to face this increment; we must dramatically increase crop production ensure global security. Hence, saline agriculture is a possible solution for producing in salt-affected soils using water irrigation. The objectives of study were investigate the effects applying different types doses biochar soil under irrigation by on quality indicators growth parameters yield arugula plant. Four biochar: banana leaves (BLB), rice straw (RSB), sorghum stalks (SSB), wood chips (WCB) applied pots at levels 1%, 3%, 5% (w/w). This pot experiment was cultivated with (6.2 dS m − 1 ). Total available nitrogen significantly relative control treatment (unamended soil) 41%, 34%, 43%, 33%, 24%, 44% adding 3%WCB, 5%WCB, 1%BLB, 3%BLB, 5%BLB, 5%SSB, 1%RSB, 5%RSB treatments, respectively. Results showed significant increases potassium (K) over 48%, 125%, 410%, 738%, 137%, 352%, 632%, 158%, 576%, 849% 1%SSB, 3%SSB, 3%RSB, Cation exchange capacity 26%, 22%, 30%, 58%, 31%, 54%, 28%, 48% 5%RSB, Relative treatment, fresh biomass plant improved 97%, 143%, 76%, 129%, 103%, 146%, 81%, 57%, 121%, 97% highest value biomass, uptake, phosphorus uptake observed 3%SSB applications. According results obtained from our study, recommend 3% which promising approach rehabilitate use sustainable production, attributed effective improvement nutrient productivity, conditions as it enhances tolerance plants salt stress well supply quality. Also, saves costs addition compared dose. also provided useful information about optimal quantities used improve productivity soils.
