Abstract

Salinization reduces soil health and quality, drastically limiting growth and reducing land degradation and crop yield. This comprehensive research aimed to evaluate the impact of sodium chloride increment on growth factors, amount of oxidative stress biomarker (Malondialdehyde), osmotic response (evaluated by both proline and sugars contents), photosynthesis efficiency (expressed with chlorophyll fluorescence measurement) and activity of Malate dehydrogenases (MDHs) as a regulator under abiotic stress tolerantly in Aloe in Alzahra University, Tehran. Experiments were conducted in two studies at the following concentration of sodium chloride: 0 (control), 100, 200, and 300 (mM) NaCl for 30 days (short-term treatments) and: 0 (control), 54.7, 109.5, and 164.5 (mM) NaCl for 150 days (long-term treatments). Three replications in completely randomized design were applied. The results showed that while the fresh weight of belowground biomass declined at higher salinity level (164.5 mM), no significant differences were reported in the short period of salt treatments. A considerable amount of free proline was accumulated in both short (3.594 µg.g-1 dw) and long ( 2.20 µg.g-1 dw) term studies which raised the role of proline in osmoregulation. Our results showed the decline of MDA amount (0.0003mmol.g-1FW) in 54.7 NaCl (mM) that may be due to less membrane damage in presence of moderate salinity, indicating a variety of dependent differences in biochemical markers activity.

Abstract

In sustainable agricultural ecosystem management, a key focus is on minimizing chemical fertilizer use and maximizing the use of non-chemical alternatives. Our study was designed to explore the impact of mycorrhizal fungi and humic acid (HA) on the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of faba beans under varying chemical fertilizer levels. The experiment involved different treatments, which included HA and mycorrhiza in four variations (control, HA, HA+ mycorrhiza, and mycorrhiza alone), and nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) fertilizers at three different dosages (50%, 75%, and 100% of the recommended amount). The findings revealed that combining HA with mycorrhiza significantly influenced root colonization, with the highest chlorophyll a concentration (1.58 mg g⁻¹) observed in the HA+ mycorrhiza treatment at 75% NPK. This treatment also led to the highest counts in seeds per pod, number of pods, and weight of 100 seeds. Between the 100% and 75% NPK levels in the HA+ mycorrhiza treatment, no significant differences were noted in terms of grain and biological yield. The greatest grain yields were measured at 4356 kg ha⁻¹ and 4322 kg ha⁻¹ for the HA+ mycorrhiza treatment at 100% and 75% NPK, respectively. Additionally, the highest concentrations of Fe, N, P, K, and Zn were observed with the HA+ mycorrhiza application at the 100% NPK level.
