Effect of Salicylic Acid on Biochemical Traits in Two Cultivars of Soybean under Salt Stress
Abstract: AbstractSoybean is considered to be moderately salt sensitive species and is affected by salinity condition in terms of growth and yield. Among the abiotic stress, salinity is one of the serious agricultural problems worldwide which reduces field production. Foliar feeding of plants can effectively improve plant growth and productivity and is known to be more effective than soil application. Salicylic acid (SA) is a naturally occurring plant growth regulator which …

Neutralising Climate Change Through Fruit Crops
Abstract: The fruit crops with an extended life cycle face several difficulties associated with stress. Intriguingly, the fruit crops with a short life cycle show a wider capability of adaptation without confronting many stresses of climate change. All the fruit crops possess temperature optima to cruise through proper growth and development. Fruit crops representing temperate, tropical and sub-tropical regions are affected by climate change to varying proportions, especially the temperate fruit …

Aluminium in Libyan Cereals and Its Daily Intake Assessment
Abstract: Dietary aluminium intake in Libya was estimated by consuming cereals. Aluminium concentrations of wheat, barley, corn, and rice were determined by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Aluminium content in cereals ranged from 0.62 to 40 mg/kg. The daily dietary aluminium intakes from wheat, barley, corn, and rice were 7.86, 0.56, 0.018 and 0.115 mg/day, respectively, however, for all cereals was 8.56 mg/day. The mean weekly percentages of the provisional tolerable …
