Boron availability and fertilizer response of maize in soils from sub‐Saharan Africa

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Low boron (B) availability is associated with strongly weathered, coarse‐textured, and low organic matter soils, widespread in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). It is unknown to what extent B fertilization can increase maize yields in SSA.

Borax Promotes Fertility of Brassica napus Better Than Other Boron Species at Suboptimal Supply

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Continuous and sufficient boron (B) supply is essential for achieving maximum yield in Brassica napus. Increasing incidences of environmental water limitation are linked to reduced plant B availability and increased B deficiencies.

Effect of Vapor Pressure Deficit on Nutrient Uptake and Growth of Four Tomato Varieties Grown Hydroponically at Low Nutrient Concentrations

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Marginal water sources, such as wastewater, have been proposed as the basis for hydroponic nutrient solutions to improve the resource efficiency of greenhouse‐based tomato production. Such water sources are often low in plant‐available nutrient concentrations, and uptake and use efficiency of these nutrients may vary widely among ...

Enhancing polyphenol synthesis and antioxidant activity in Camellia sinensis using shikimic and salicylic acids

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Camellia sinensis, widely consumed as tea, is the second most popular beverage globally and is valued for its health benefits. However, environmental stressors pose a significant challenge to the tea industry. This study investigates the potential of shikimic acid (ShA) and its derivative, salicylic acid (SA), as inducers to enhance
