Silicon (Si) distribution and accumulation in plant organs is widely reported as beneficial to overcome biotic and abiotic stresses. The investigation on distribution of Si in plant organs under water stress conditions was studied through experiments conducted at Arid Agriculture University, Pakistan during 2007–2009. Treatments (Si₂₀₀: 200 ml l⁻¹ of potassium silicate and Si₀: control or absence of silicon) were replicated thrice with two sorghum cultivars; SPV462 (drought susceptible) and Johar-1 (drought tolerant) screened using osmotic media of PEG6000 (-4.0, -6.0, -8.0 and -10.0 MPa). The results exhibited increased leaf water potential, leaf area index, SPAD chlorophyll with increased silicon concentration in leaves and roots of drought-tolerant genotype as compared to SPV462. Johar-1 exhibited maximum values for net assimilation and relative growth rate under silicon treatment in comparison to silicon absence. Similarly, maintenance of transpiration rate, because of accumulation of silicon in leaves resulted in optimum leaf water potential and optimum growth of crop.
The study was carried out in 3 plots in the province of Punjab (Pakistan) in November 2001. The total population of the Houbara Bustard was estimated at about 4 746 birds with an overall density of 0.147 ± 0.006/km². The number of birds in Rajanpur/Rojhan was estimated at 685, in Thai at 672 and in Cholistan at 3 389.
The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the potential of chitosan alone and in combination with various agricultural wastes for the management of rootknot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita on eggplant cv. ‘BR-112’ under greenhouse conditions. The results showed that chitosan as a single or joint treatment with agricultural wastes significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced root-knot indices, and the nematode population in soil. As a result, of this, the growth and growth yielding attributes of eggplant were remarkably augmented. Chitosan as an elicitor induced plant mediated systemic resistance against M. incognita in eggplant. The results of the study demonstrated that maximum reduction in eggmass/root, eggs/eggmasses, nematode population and root-knot indices, was acquired by the treatments: chitosan + onion and chitosan + mentha. It was followed by chitosan + Brassica, chitosan + urad and chitosan + coconut whereas, chitosan combined with corn cob waste was found to be the least effective when compared to the control. The application of chitosan alone was effective but not very satisfactory. Compared to the control applications of all the treatments significantly increased plant growth in terms of length, fresh and dry weights, pollen fertility, yield and biochemical parameters such as chlorophyll, carotenoid content and antioxidant enzymes. This may have been due to the eliciting activity of chitosan, causing systemic resistance in the plant and the release of various toxic chemical compounds during decomposition which have lethal effects against the second stage juveniles of M. incognita and nematode multiplication.
