Assessment Of Soil Quality Index For Different Ndvi Ranges In A Watershed, Bülent Turgut, Sümeyye Güler

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of vegetation density on the soil quality index (SQI) in the Godrahav basin, which varies in terms of land use and topographic features. For this purpose, a total of 180 soil samples were taken at depths of 0–20 cm (surface soil) from six ranges of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in a typical watershed in Artvin (northeast Türkiye). The SQI was used to evaluate and calculate soil quality in the study area. Topographic features (elevation, slope, and aspect), land use, physical properties of the soil (clay content, silt content, …

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of anaerobically stabilized sewage sludge (SS) converted into 90% dryness granules at different doses of control, 3% SS, 6% SS, and 9% SS on elemental composition of Festuca arundinacea Schreb. and physicochemical properties of soil. Color measurements were made with the CIE L* a* b* method unit; the highest color (4.10) and the highest coating score (5.7) were calculated for the 6% SS treatment. The highest biomass (9.11 g) was obtained from the 3% SS and the lowest (7.67 g) from the 9% SS dose. Plant height measurements were listed as follows: …

Different Doses Of Cadmium In Soil Negatively Impact Growth, Plant Mineral Homeostasis And Antioxidant Defense Of Mung Bean Plants, Fahad Mohammed Alzuaibr Aug 2023

Different Doses Of Cadmium In Soil Negatively Impact Growth, Plant Mineral Homeostasis And Antioxidant Defense Of Mung Bean Plants, Fahad Mohammed Alzuaibr

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Heavy metal (HM) pollution of soil has become a gigantic issue across the globe. Metals enter the food chain and cause problems in plants, animals, and humans. We performed this work to evaluate the impacts of different cadmium (Cd) levels on growth, physiology, mineral nutrition, and yield attributes of Vigna radiata. Changes in growth fund are statistically significant and directly linked with an increase in Cd doses. Various concentrations of cadmium exhibited significant (p ≤ 0.05) vicissitudes in biochemical parameters such as in the contents of chlorophyll, amino acids, soluble proteins, and total soluble sugars in experimental plants. The shoot …


Exogenous Application Of Trehalose Minimizes Cadmium Toxicity And Alleviates Oxidative Stress In Wheat Under Cadmium Stress, Hesham F. Alharby, Hassan S. Al-Zahrani, Khalid Rehman Hakeem, Shafaqat Ali Jan 2023

Exogenous Application Of Trehalose Minimizes Cadmium Toxicity And Alleviates Oxidative Stress In Wheat Under Cadmium Stress, Hesham F. Alharby, Hassan S. Al-Zahrani, Khalid Rehman Hakeem, Shafaqat Ali

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Practical and cost-effective food safety and production methods are essential, as huge areas of arable land are contaminated through heavy metals, including cadmium (Cd) pollution worldwide. This study was performed to assess impacts of dissimilar doses of trehalose (Tre) (0, 25, 50 mM) as foliar spray on wheat plants grown under different Cd stress levels (0, 2.5, 5, 10 mg/kg), considering different growth, photosynthetic attributes and antioxidative defense mechanism in relation with the uptake of Cd to different plant parts. A considerable reduction was detected in growth, biomass, and chlorophyll contents under Cd stress linked with boosted lipid peroxidation, electrolyte …


Combined Effects Of Biochar And Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria Pseudomonas Putida Tsau1 On Plant Growth, Nutrient Uptake Of Wheat, And Soil Enzyme Activities, Dilfuza Egamberdieva, Burak Alaylar, Jakhongir Alimov, Zafarjon Jabbarov, Sonoko Bellingrath Kimura Jan 2023

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Many studies indicate the favorable effect of biochar on soil quality and plant fitness. A few studies on the biochar interactions with rhizosphere bacteria and their impact on plant development and nutrient acquisition have been reported. In this study, pot experiments in a glasshouse were performed to figure out the interactive effect of plant beneficial bacteria Pseudomonas putida TSAU6 and biochar amendment on the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growth, nutrient uptake, and soil biological activity. The results demonstrated that root and shoot dry biomass of wheat grown in soil mixed with biochar and combined with P. putida TSAU1 were …

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

High temperatures may cause scorching of the twigs and leaves along with visual symptoms of sunburn, leaf senescence, growth inhibition, and ultimately decreased plant growth and biomass. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of the important oil seed crops and it potentially fits in agricultural system and oil production sector of Pakistan. Hence, it is important to get the best variety which may able to tolerate high temperatures in hot and humid environments. For this purpose, we have conducted the present study using ten different cultivars of (Hysin-33, T-40, H-OI, Hysin-39, Suncross, Gulshin, FH-825, FH-797, FH-784, AGSUN-5270) of H. …

Plant Nutrient Contents And Spatial Distribution Patterns Of Toxic Element Concentrations In Mine Site Soils, Gülşen Tozsi̇n, Taşkin Öztaş

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Open-pit coal mining causes land and soil degradation and negatively affects soil properties. It is of great importance to determine variabilities in soil properties of the abandoned area after the mine is closed and to bring it back to nature by implementing appropriate rehabilitation programs. The aim of this study was to evaluate plant nutrient availability and toxic element pollution in an abandoned coal mine site. The results indicated that the amounts of plant-available P and K are quite low (<90 kg P2O5 ha-1) and low to moderate (<170 kg K2O ha-1), respectively. The concentrations …
