Article Synopsis
- Copper is essential for various metabolic processes in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, but excessive levels can negatively impact plant growth and development.
- The study investigated the effects of organic and Cu-contaminated soils on fibrous jute (Corchorus capsularis) over a 60-day period, revealing that organic soil improved seed germination, plant height, and overall biomass while reducing toxic compounds in plants.
- In contrast, plants in Cu-contaminated soil exhibited stunted growth, increased toxicity markers, and damaged cellular structures, highlighting the detrimental effects of Cu on plant health compared to those grown in organic soil.

Article Synopsis
- * The study focused on Washington navel orange trees, comparing the effects of three iron forms (nano, sulfate, and chelated) on growth and fruit quality through foliar spraying.
- * Results showed that using nano iron particles (Fe-NPs) and chelated iron (Fe-chelated, EDTA) significantly improved tree growth, fruit yield, and nutritional quality, with Fe-NPs increasing yield by 32% compared to the control.
The mango is one of the most valuable and appealing tropical fruits due to its color, aroma, tasteful remarkable flavor, and nutritive value; however, improving the yield and quality of mango is an urgent goal in order to combat global population growth. The application of amino acids and a micronutrient mixture might improve the yield and quality features but further research is still required in arid regions. To study the combined effect of a micronutrient mixture (MM) and amino acids (AA) at different rates, twenty-seven Fagri Kalan mango trees (15 years old) were carefully selected.
