Article Synopsis
  • Drought significantly impacts crop yields, and organic modifiers like biochar can help mitigate these effects on crops such as guar, which thrives in arid regions.
  • A field experiment assessed various irrigation levels and biochar applications on the physiological and morphological traits of two guar cultivars, revealing that increased irrigation cycles and biochar positively influenced yield and nutrient uptake.
  • The results showed that the highest seed yields occurred under the most frequent irrigation, with one cultivar (RGC-936) performing particularly well, while biochar improved morphological traits more than the cultivars themselves.

Ornamental foliage plants that have a dense appearance are highly valued. One way to achieve this is by using plant growth regulators as a tool for plant growth management. In a greenhouse with a mist irrigation system, a study was conducted on dwarf schefflera, an ornamental foliage plant, which was exposed to foliar application of gibberellic acid and benzyladenine hormones.

Eryngo ( Trautv) a widespread species of the Apiaceae reveals high nutritional value and therapeutic properties due to the significant content of biologically active metabolites such as essential oils, phenolic compounds, and flavonoids. The present study was performed to evaluate the morphological and biochemical variability and antioxidant properties of naturally grown populations of eryngo. One-way ANOVA showed significant ( < .
