Individual and interactive effects of amino acid and paracetamol on growth, physiological and biochemical aspects of L under drought conditions.

Drought stress poses a significant threat to (L.), impacting its growth, yield, and profitability. This study investigates the effects of foliar application of individual and interactive pharmaceutical (Paracetamol; 0 and 250 mg L) and amino acid (0 and 4 ml/L) on the growth, physiology, and yield of under drought stress.

Iron enriched quinoa biochar enhances Nickel phytoremediation potential of L. by its immobilization and attenuation of oxidative stress: implications for human health.

The present study was performed to assess Ni-immobilization and the phytoremediation potential of sunflower by the application of quinoa stalks biochar (QSB) and its magnetic nanocomposite (MQSB). The QSB and MQSB were characterized with FTIR, SEM, EDX, and XRD to get an insight of their surface properties. Three-week-old seedlings of sunflower were transplanted to soil spiked with Ni (0, 15, 30, 60, 90 mg kg), QSB and MQSB (0, 1, and 2%) in the wire house under natural conditions.
