Article Synopsis
  • Tomatoes have high nutritional value but their production is hindered by improper soil nutrient combinations.
  • A pot experiment tested various levels of Azolla (an organic fertilizer) and inorganic nitrogen to assess their impact on tomato plant growth and physiological traits.
  • Results indicated that both Azolla and nitrogen significantly influenced key factors like chlorophyll content, photosynthesis, and overall plant growth, highlighting the need for a balanced fertilizer approach rather than solely relying on organic methods.

Plants take up nitrogen (N) both day and night. The diurnal variation in N uptake results from interactions between aboveground and belowground tissues. We examined the long-term effects of interrupted N supply (day only or night only) under hydroponic conditions to test whether plant acclimatisation response to the interrupted N supply differs by day or night.
