Thermal Environments

Aim: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of sowing at different thermal environments and its interaction with foliar spray of bio-regulators on yield and yield contributing traits in wheat. Methodology: The present study was conducted by using split plot design with four replications consisting of 24 treatments, namely, main plots: three sowing at different thermal environments (22oC, 20oC and 18oC) and sub plots: eight foliar spray of bioregulators (control, water spray, salicylic acid @ 100 ppm, salicylic acid @ 200 ppm, thio salicylic acid @ 100 ppm, thio salicylic acid @ 200 ppm, thioglycolic acid @ 100 ppm and thioglycolic acid @ 200 ppm). Results: The results indicated that sowing at 20oC recorded the maximum yield parameters viz, effective tillers/m row length, length of ear, no. of grains per ear, test weight, days to maturity and grain, straw and biological yield of wheat over sowing at 22oC and 18oC temperature. Sowing at different thermal environment treatments was found to be non-significant with harvest index of wheat. Among the foliar spray of bioregulators, the treatment B4 (SA @ 200 ppm) significantly increased the yield components and yield, while remaining at par with B6 (TSA @ 200 ppm) and B8 (TGA @ 200 ppm) proved superior in comparison to rest of the treatments. However, the significantly higher harvest index was obtained under B4 (SA @ 200 ppm) treatment and was statistically at par with all other treatments, except B1 and B2. Interpretation: It is concluded that salicylic acid @ 200 ppm at tillering (40-45 DAS) and ear emergence (60-65 DAS) stage may be sprayed on 20oC temperature sown crop is a viable option to improve wheat yield under semi-arid environment.

Cynara Scolymus

In northern latitudes, productivity of forage crops could be affected by weather conditions at sowing as well as during harvesting. Management of sowing date and foliar application of growth regulators can help to avoid severe environmental stresses during these sensitive stages and may improve forage quality. Globe artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) has been recently introduced as a specialty and alternative forage crop in north-western Iran. Morphological characteristics, yield and quality of forage of artichoke leaves were investigated in response to three (April 19, May 5 and 20) sowing dates and three acid salicylic (0, 700 and 1400 µM) rates of foliar spray under field condition. Foliar application of 700 and 1400 µM salicylic acid solution caused to 18% and 26% increase in leaf number, respectively. Results showed that digestible dry matter (DDM), crude protein, crude fat and ash were affected by both sowing date and salicylic acid. The highest digestible dry matter was recorded in third sowing date with 700 µM salicylic acid application. On the other hand the maximum yield and dry matter, crude fat and protein were observed in second sowing date. Based on these results, we estimate that under these environmental conditions, second sowing date (May 5) along with 700 µM salicylic acid foliar application appear sufficient to obtain high yield and acceptable forge quantity of artichoke.

The experiment was conducted to study the effect of salicylic acid (SA) as foliar spray on yield and yield contributing characters of BRRI Hybrid dhan3.The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications and six treatment combinations as, T1: 0 μM SA, T2: 200 μM SA, T3: 400 μM SA, T4: 600 μM SA, T5: 800 μM SA and T6: 1000 μM SA. The results revealed that biomass production, dry matter production and yield and yield contributing characters were significantly increased due to the foliar application of SA. At the maximum tillering (MT) stage, the highest biomass production (15.0 t/ha) and dry matter production was observed in T3 treatment. Treatments T4, T5 and T6 showed significant variation on the effective tillers/hill. The maximum effective tillers/hill were found in the treatment T6. The percentages of spikelet sterility were decreased with increasing the level of SA and the percentage of filled grains/panicle were increased with increasing level of SA. The insect infestation was reduced with increasing level of SA to up to 1000 μM. The maximum grain yield (9.21 t/ha) and straw yield (9.22 t/ha) was found in the treatment T6 which was identical to T5. On the other hand, in all cases the lowest results were found in the control treatment. The result showed that grain yield of rice increased with increasing level of SA to up to 1000 μM (T6 treatment). Our results suggest that foliar spray of SA might be applied to increase the yield of hybrid rice in Bangladesh.Res. Agric., Livest. Fish.4(3): 157-164, December 2017

Loss of seed quality in soybean is a serious problem in tropical and subtropical region. Foliar application of salicylic acid (SA), GA3 and acetyl salicylic acid (50 ppm) at seedling and pod filling stage, K2HPO4 (2%), a-tocopherol (100 ppm) at flowering and pod filling stage was done on soybean varieties – NRC 7 and JS 335. Foliar application of SA showed positive effect on seed yield, seed health, germination and seed vigour during storage. Plant height was significantly improved by the GA3 spray in both the varieties. Significantly higher seed yield was obtained with foliar spray of a-tocopherol. Application of SA was found effective to protect plants from various diseases to get quality seed. a-Tocopherol and K2HPO4 treatment significantly reduced MDA production in seeds. a-Tocopherol application increased super oxide dismutase activity as a result the lipid peroxidation of seed during storage was significantly reduced. Application of a-tocopherol, K2HPO4 and salicylic acid improved the storage or keeping quality of soybean seed.

Yield Performance

Objective of this study was to examine and evaluate the role of different rates of salicylic acid (SA) as foliar spray on growth and yield performance of BRRI dhan29. The experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Bangladesh from November, 2016 to May, 2017 following a randomized complete block design with five rates of SA in six replications. The results showed that the lower rate of SA (upto 0.75 mM) has a positive effect on rice biomass production including effective tiller per hill, filled grain per panicle, grain yield and straw yield. The highest dry matter production at both maximum tillering and panicle initiation stages was found at SA spray rate of 0.5 mM. The highest number of effective tillers per hill (14.7) as well as the highest filled grain (120.4) and grain yield (8.1 t/ha) were found at SA rate of 0.75 mM. However, the maximum biomass production was obtained at SA rate of 0.25 mM. The minimum grain yield (7.0 t/ha) was observed in the control treatment.

Background: Dryland is characterised by drought/dry spell (s) of 10 to 15 days and is the main reason for decline in soybean production. The aim of this study was to develop a strategy of drought amelioration by using foliar sprays and enhancement of yield, quality, energetics and carbon footprint. Methods: A field experiment was carried out at Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, College of Agriculture, Indore, (M.P.) during 2017-18 under spilt-plot design having two main plot treatments viz., foliar application at dry spell (F1), foliar application after dry spell (F2) and seven sub plot treatments i.e. different variants of foliar sprays (DVFS). Different growth, yield, quality, energetic and carbon footprint traits were recorded. The data were analyzed using standard statistical procedures. Result: The highest growth, yield, quality and energetic parameters were recorded for F1 as compared to F2. In case of DVFS, foliar application of water soluble complex fertilizer 19:19:19 (NPK) @ 0.5% + 0.5% ZnSO4 (T4) produced maximum values for growth, energetics, carbon footprint, oil (22.5%) and protein (43.1%) content as well as produced maximum yield.

ABSTRACT A factorial based on RCBD experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of priming and foliar spray of cycocel on rapeseed yield components. Treatments were included; seed priming (0, 600, 900, 1200, 1500 μM) and foliar spray (0, 600, 1200 μM) with cycocel at development stage of flower buds. The results revealed that seed priming with cycocel significantly increased emerged plant number per plot, silique dry weight in the main stems and branches, plant dry weight, branches number, silique number in the main stems and branches, seed number in branches, 1000 seeds weight, and seed yield in non-stress conditions. Foliar application with cycocel also increased plant dry weight, 1000 seeds weight in branches, harvest index and seed yield. Moreover, interaction effect of priming and foliar application of cycocel increased plant dry weight and 1000 seeds weight with branches. CCC foliar application during the early stages of reproductive stage went to elevated plant dry weight and 1000 seeds weight in auxiliary branches and, also increased harvest index and grain yield. Mean comparison and interaction effects of traits also revealed that, appropriate levels of CCC had the meaningful effects on any agronomic and physiological trait. However, the most meaningful impact in most traits was traced in case with primed seed with 900 and 1500 μM CCC. Overall, owing to the present data, CCC priming under both normal and harsh conditions may raise the germination related traits, seedling establishment, plant growth and ultimately may goes to increased yield.

A field experiment was carried out to screen the best foliar concentration of salicylic acid (SA) out of 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg L-1 for its effect on various growth and yield parameters like number of leaves, plant height, number of fruits plant-1, fruit dimensions, leaf chlorophyll content and yield plant-1 in three chilli cultivars. The selected chilli cultivars included were Sky-Land-II, Sky-Land and 1130. The experiment was conducted in field area of the Department of Horticultural Sciences, The Islamia University of Bahawalpur, Pakistan during 2017. Results indicated that different levels of SA significantly increased plant growth and yield parameters, but the level of SA @ 75 mg L-1 highly improved the studied parameters in selected cultivars. Moreover, foliar spray of SA significantly increased growth in selected cultivars; however, Sky-Land-II performed better in response to different concentrations of SA. In conclusion, foliar spraying of 75 mg L-1 SA could be recommended to chilli growers under arid region of Bahawalpur for growing cultivar Sky-Land-II.

Commercially available foliar spray labeled as ‘Planto-fuel’ increased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) most of the growth traits viz., leaf length, bulb diameter (7.6 cm), bulb length (5.9 cm), leaves fresh weight/plant, neck fresh weight/plant, bulb fresh weight/plant (166.6 g) and plant fresh weight. It also produced the maximum yield (14.2 tons/ha) while the basal application of DAP significantly increased the number of leaves/plant and 2nd best results in yield whereas the lowest yield was observed through water spray. It is observed that the foliar application of micronutrients mixture in combination with nitrogen is the most suitable method to increase the onion production.
