Eggplant (Solanum melongena) falls under the fruit species under the family of Solanaceae. It is grown widely throughout tropical and subtropical Zones in the world. It is a good source of phenolics, flavonoids, vitamins, calcium and protein. Due to its high nutritional properties, the demand for eggplant is increasing annually. However, due to limited planting space, it is difficult for the producers to increase the production in order to meet the demand. Thus, the objective of this study is to improve the growth and development of selected physiological characteristics of eggplant with chitosan and salicylic acid. The experiment was carried out in factorial randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 4 replications. This experiment was conducted at Field 15, Universiti Putra Malaysia. The plants were treated with chitosan and salicylic acid at four different rates; 0, 2, 4 and 6 ml/L for chitosan and 0, 50, 100 and 150 mg/L for salicylic acid. The treatments were applied either alone or in combination. Results revealed that the application of chitosan combined with salicylic acid influenced the physiological characteristics of the eggplant compared to the control group. Combination of 4 ml/L chitosan with 150 mg/L salicylic acid gave the highest mean values of plant height (107.13 cm), number of branches (14.91), number of leaves (136.08), total number of flowers per plant (101.8), compared to other treatments. Therefore, due to cost effectiveness and better impact on physiological characteristics the combination of 4 ml/L chitosan and 150 mg/L salicylic acid as foliar fertilizer is recommended to improve the growth and development of eggplant.

Abstract Shallot is a horticulture crop with a fibrous root system, which is susceptible to water deficit, particularly in the bulb formation stage. This study was carried out to examine the effects of salicylic acid (SA) and biosilica (Si) exogenous induction on plant growth of shallot grown under water deficit in plastic baskets. A factorial 4×2 experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with four blocks. The first factor of treatments was a four-level exogenous induction, i.e., 0.5mM SA, 6mM Si, combination (0.5mM SA and 6mM Si), and control (0 without SA and Si). The second factor was a level of interval irrigations i.e, one-day interval and three-day interval. The results showed that the treatment of combination 0.5mM SA and 6mM Si can maintained a plant height and the number of leaves was better than the control under water deficit. Avoidance was one of the mechanisms of shallot in dealing with water deficit, namely by reducing the stomatal density. Decreased stomatal density was negatively correlated with water use efficiency.

The production of the turnip (Brassica napus L.) in Ecuador, depends largely on the use of agrochemicals, whose indiscriminate use causes negative effects on the environment. Agricultural homeopathy has emerged as an ecological alternative to improve the health status of plants. In order to help improve the sustainable production of vegetables, the effect of two centesimal dynamics (7CH and 31CH) of three homeopathic medicines for human use was evaluated: Silicea terra (SiT), Natrum muriaticum (NaM) and Phosphoricum acidum (PhA ), on the germination, emergence and vegetative development of B. napus plants, applying a completely randomized 2×3+1 block design with three repetitions for the three stages of the crop. The variables evaluated during germination and emergence were: percentage of germination and emergence, length of stem and radicle, fresh weight of the aerial part and radicle, dry weight of the aerial part and radicle. The variables evaluated during vegetative development were: plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, weight, leaf area and productive yield. Signif icant differences were recorded in all the variables and stages of development studied. The highest germination values corresponded to SiT-7CH and PhA-7CH (100%), surpassing the control group (83.5%). The PhA-7CH and NaM-31CH treatments stimulated stem growth in the germination stage (3.40 cm) and NaM-7CH root growth (4.07 cm) in the emergence stage. During the vegetative development, the plants with the highest production were those treated with NaM-7CH. The highest prof itability of the crop (71.33%), with a benef it / cost ratio of 1.7% was obtained with SiT-7CH. The results obtained suggest that agricultural homeopathy has potential in horticulture, since all treatments favorably influenced the response variables during germination, emergence and vegetative development of (Brassica napus L.).

AbstractA two-factorial field experiment with soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merill) was conducted in a randomized block design, with four replications. The tested factors were seed priming method and genotype responses. There had been seven soybean varieties (Aldana, Aligator, Annushka, Augusta, Lissabon, Mavka, and Merlin) and each of them had control (unprimed) and seed primed groups. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of hydropriming on germination ability and emergence under field conditions, on the growth and development of selected soybean varieties. Shortly before harvest, 10 randomly selected plants were collected from each plot, and their morphological and yield-related traits were measured. In addition, the seed yield was assessed. On the basis of statistical analysis, significant differences were found between the applied hydropriming method and the control group in regard to morphological traits. Seed treatment resulted in a slight increase in harvested seed yield, which is within error margin. The seed yield of Aligator increased significantly by 0.5 t ha−1, indicating a genotype-specific different reaction to seed priming in terms of yield.

The flower cabbage (Brassica oleraceea L.) is a type of vegetable plant belonging to the family of cabbage plants (Cruciferae). Flower cabbage often called "cauliflower" has many benefits to consume, because it contains calories, protein, carbohydrates, calcium, and vitamins A, B1 and C. Farming is very much affected by the state of agricultural land, a problem that often occurs due to lack of elemental content nutrients in the soil that affect the inflorescence and flower cabbage growth. Therefore, to increase the yield of cabbage flowers offered the method of land optimization with the addition of nutrients in the form of phosphorous soil and also the addition of gibberellin hormone that has a role to flowering cabbage plants. The research was conducted by using Randomized Block Design (RBD) in divided plots with 2 treatments, Phosphorus (P) as the main plot with 3 treatment levels P1 (100 kg / ha), P2 (125 kg / ha) and P3 150 kg/ha then the concentration of Giberelin (K) as a subplot with 3 levels of treatment K1 (75 mg / L), K2 (100 mg / L) and K3 (125 mg / L)). From the result of the combination of the two treatments were 9 treatment combinations, repeated 3 times to obtain 27 units combination of treatments, each experimental plot consisted of 15 plants. Parameters observed include plant height, number of leaves, number of flowering plants, flower diameter and flower weight. The result of the research showed no significant interaction in all plant variables but the dosage of phosphorus fertilizer gave significant effect on the height variable of the 10 hst plant on the P1 (100 kg/ha) treatment, the leaf number variant showed significant effect at age 40 hst on P3 treatment (150 kg / ha), the number of flowering plant variables showed significant effect of 60 hst on P3 treatment (150 kg / ha), flower diameter variables showed significant differences in P3 treatment (150 kg / ha). The best treatment is P3 treatment (150 kg / ha). Gibberellin concentrations did not have a real effect on all plant variants.

Shallots (Allium ascalonicum L.) is one of the leading vegetable commodities used as food seasoning and traditional medicine. This study aims to see the effect of providing various doses of NPK fertilizer and types of biological fertilizers on the growth and production of shallot plants. This study used a randomized block design (RAK) arranged in a factorial (4 x 2). The first factor is the NPK fertilizer dosage which consists of four levels, namely: N0= 0% (without NPK fertilizer), N1= 50% (25 g/m2), N2= 100% (50 g/m2), and N3= 150% (75 g/m2). The second factor is the type of biological fertilizer which consists of two levels, namely: H1= Grikulan plus fertilizer and H2= EM4. The results showed that the NPK fertilizer dosage treatment up to a dose of 75g/m2 gave the best results on plant growth and development, including the number of leaves, plant height, fresh tuber weight per plant, wind dry tuber weight per plant, and wind dry tuber weight per m2. The growth and development of shallot plants with the application of Grikulan biological fertilizers were better than those of EM4 biological fertilizers. Treatment of NPK fertilizer dosage of 150% or equivalent to 75 g / m2 supplemented with the application of Grikulan plus fertilizer results in higher production, namely the weight of dry tubers per m2 reaching 1674.33 g or equivalent to 11.72 tonnes/ha. Keywords : EM4, Grikulan plus, shallots,NPK, yield
