In arid and semi-arid zones, reclaiming/restoring salt-affected soil is considered a significant challenge because of the limited amount water available for washing. The reclaimed regarded as valuable resource increasing production food feed. current study, electrokinetics (SEK) under pulsed-mode electric field operation was used to evaluate optimize energy use efficiency reclaiming soils, which one electro-agric technology branches that suggested in 2021 address crisis regions. Under fixed applied voltage 5 V, or 1 V/cm, calcareous, highly salinized investigation reclaimed. A 25% reduction voltages with time OFF set at 15, 30, 60, 120 min 50% were two pulsed techniques examined. findings demonstrated removal Na+ surpasses half (50%) majority studies. By decreasing removed K+, crucial plant growth, modes fields 25 showed an economic advantage over control experiment, operated continuous field. Throughout very little Ca2+ removed. However, rose when field’s mode applied, percentages higher strategy than strategy. nearly every segment experiment (control, 25%, 50%), pH levels exceeded initial value 8.05. improvement passing longest interval min; shorter longer intervals however, 30 had negative effect. cumulative EO flow 60 improved by throughout first seven days operation, end trial, exhibited high values. highest values, displayed min. anolyte decreased trial both strategies. Lastly, order minimize overall consumption, it strongly advised be while soil.

The excessive use of materials that are generally difficult to discard, such as stone materials, has caused growing ecological concern. Among these, marble is extracted from quarries, but when the raw material exhausted, these places deserted. For this reason, several measures have been adopted in recent years requalify areas. In addition, technological developments involve creation innovative green privilege circular economy and waste recycling. This research presents development innovative, sustainable filaments for fused filament fabrication (FFF) printing technique recycled (MW) biocompostable biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) matrix. MW was added polymer concentrations 10 wt.%, 20 30 blends were extruded develop filaments. chemical/structural properties thermal mechanical features new composites investigated. Composites containing wt.% showed good printability. contrast, extrusion difficulties observed with MW. Finally, paper proposes a project renaturalize disused quarry located Trani (Apulia, Italy) 3D devices using newly produced eco-filaments, which better features. main purpose article propose concrete, economic, application involving processes by-product recycling renaturalization both economic environmental benefits.

Growth variability of farm grown teak in response to climatic and soil factors across three agroclimatic zones of Tamil Nadu, India

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(1)

Teak (Tectona grandis, Linn. f) is a prized hardwood species with remarkable properties that make it favored material in various industries. In current trend, the cultivation of teak farmlands considered as promising option. But documentation and research on growth attributes studies influence climatic edaphic factors raised farmland condition lacking. this regard, present investigation farm grown was perpetrated three agroclimatic zones viz., High Rainfall Zone, Southern Zone Cauvery Delta Tamil Nadu four different age classes (0-5, 5-10, 10-15 15-20 years). The study carried forward prime motive determining analyzing impact parameters biometry teak, both block boundary plantations. soil physico-chemical were analyzed surface (0-15 cm) subsurface (15-30 plantations outcomes presented form cluster heat map, results revealed maximum organic carbon (0.62%), available nitrogen (197 kg ha-1), phosphorous (22 potassium (340 bulk density (1.34 g/cm3) porosity (51.10%) observed soils high rainfall zone. follow-up correlation between variables using R-software brought to light tree volume positively correlated annual rainfall, mean minimum temperature relative humidity, but showed negative respect Harmoniously, analysis positive carbon, nitrogen, potassium, whereas depicted pH electrical conductivity addition, principal component out determine most contributing factor among all also portray highly suitable zone for cultivation. overall parameters, has significant play crucial role improving settings. regard surveyed, exhibit favorable conditions, which turn reflect better performance when compared other taken into consideration.

Rhizospheric Bacteria of Cover Legumes from Acidic Soils Are Capable of Solubilizing Different Inorganic Phosphates

Microorganisms, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 12(6), С. 1101 - 1101

Опубликована: Май 29, 2024

Due to its adsorption with aluminum and iron hydroxides, phosphorus viability is low in acidic soils; thus, the aim of this study was isolate identify bacteria from rhizosphere four legumes growing soils Cumbaza Sub-basin, San Martín, Peru, as well characterize their ability solubilize phosphate phosphate. The isolation process conducted on TSA medium isolates were classified based origin morphocolonial characteristics, bacillary shape being most frequent, followed by cocci. To assess solubilization phosphates, liquid GELP employed. Sixteen strains selected, among which three stood out for effectiveness solubilizing AlPO4 (Sfcv-098-02, 22.65 mg L−1; Sfc-093-04, 26.50 Sfcv-041-01-2, 55.98 L−1) one FePO4 (Sfcr-043-02, 32.61 L−1). These molecularly characterized, identified Enterobacter sp., Pseudomonas Staphylococcus sp. Additionally, a decrease pH observed reactions, values ranging 5.23 3.29, enhanced solubilization. This suggests that selected could be used improve availability agricultural soils.

Enhancing floret persistence and bloom duration in gladiolus through foliar-applied calcium: a sustainable approach to floriculture

The Journal of Horticultural Science and Biotechnology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 14

Опубликована: Янв. 11, 2025

Enhancing floret persistence and bloom duration in ornamental plants through foliar-applied calcium promotes sustainability by improving nutrient efficiency, reducing environmental impacts, conserving resources, boosting commercial value. This two-year study (2021–2022) evaluated the effects of foliar application on gladiolus (cv. White Prosperity). The experiment followed a Randomized Complete Block Design with split-plot arrangement, replicated three times. Main plots received different timings (3rd, 5th, 7th leaf stages), subplots were assigned various concentrations (0, 100, 200, 300, 400 mm). Calcium chloride was applied as spray. Results showed that applying 300 mm at 5th stage yielded longest spike emergence (96.63 days), tallest length (128.50 cm), extended both first (7.23 days) last (5.34 life spans. Additionally, florets treatment had highest content (0.853%). These findings demonstrate precise enhances quality market value contributes to sustainable horticulture optimising use input waste supporting resilience floriculture practices.

Abstract To better understand the effects of ground-level ozone (O 3 ) on nutrients and stoichiometry in different plant organs, urban tree species Celtis sinensis , Cyclocarya paliurus Quercus acutissima nuttallii were subjected to a constant exposure charcoal-filtered air (CF), nonfiltered (NF), or NF + 40, 60, 80 nmol O mol –1 (NF40, NF60, NF80) starting early summer growing season. At end summer, net CO 2 assimilation rate ( A ), stomatal conductance g s leaf mass per area (LMA), and/or greenness (SPAD) either not significantly affected by elevated even higher some cases during compared with CF controls. LMA was lower autumn only after highest exposures. Compared NF, NF40 caused large increase across late more K Mn stems. season, nutrient status stoichiometric ratios organs variously altered under stress; many changes often species-specific. Across treatments, primarily associated C Mg levels leaves Ca enriched K, P, Fe, stems, relative NF60 enhanced NF40. Moreover, resulted Ca/Mg ratio Q. only, other regimes. Interestingly, species, stress led modifications (stems branches vs leaves). Thus, ambient exposures can alter dynamics distribution disrupt species-specific manner. Changes reflect an important defense mechanism plants pollution adds risk ecological stoichiometries areas.
