“…Our results on fruit water content are in agreement with those of Boertje (1969) and with those of Valenciano et al (2011) and Randal (1969) who found that a Mo implementation caused a significantly increase of dry matter production in chickpea and grain, respectively.…”

Molybdenum (Mo) is an essential trace element for plant growth, development, and production. However, there is little known about the function and effects of molybdenum in tomato plants. The present study assessed the influences of different Mo concentrations on four tomato F1 hybrids (“Bybal” F1, “Tyty” F1, “Paride” F1, and “Ornela” F1) grown using a soilless system with different Mo levels [0.0, 0.5 (standard NS), 2.0, and 4.0 μmol L−1, respectively]. The crop yield, plant vigor, fruit skin color, TA, fruit water content as well as the accumulation of SSC, and some antioxidant compounds such as lycopene, polyphenols and ascorbic acid were evaluated. The minerals concentration, including nitrogen (N), Mo, iron (Fe), and copper (Cu), were measured in tomato fruits. Results revealed that tomato plants grown with 2.0 μmol Mo L−1 compared to plants grown with 0.5 μmol Mo L−1 incurred a significant increase of total yield by 21.7%, marketable yield by 9.1%, aboveground biomass by 16.7%, plant height at 50 DAT by 6.5%, polyphenol content by 3.5%, ascorbic acid by 1.0%, SSC by 3.5%, N fruit content by 24.8%, Mo fruit content by 20.0%, and Fe fruit content by 60.5%. However, the Mo concentration did not significantly influence the average fruit weight, b* fruit skin color coordinate and TA. Furthermore, tomato fruits from plants grown with 2.0 μmol Mo L−1 showed a lower Cu fruit content (16.1%) than fruits from plants grown with 0.5 μmol Mo L−1 (standard NS). Consequently, our study highlights the different behavior of the tomato genotypes tested when subjected to different levels of Mo concentration in the nutrient solution. Nevertheless, taking all in consideration our results clearly suggest that a Mo fertilization of 2.0 μmol Mo L−1 effectively enhance crop performance and overall fruit quality of tomato.

“…The best results would therefore be achieved if micronutrients are applied in conjunction with macronutrients to favorably influence the plant vigor, morphology, and metabolic processes. The results of this experiment are in agreement with the findings of a number of previous research endeavors involving other crops [38,[40][41][42][43]. Yang et al [44] for instance, reported that the combined application of B with Mo or Zn resulted in higher seed yield than the application of B, Mo, or Zn alone, and the combined application of B, Mo, and Zn increased the seed yield by 68.1% compared to the controls.…”

“…Micronutrients also increase the number of branches due to the formation of stamens and pollens [36]. The enhancing effect of zinc, boron, and molybdenum on pods per plant has been reported in mungbean [37], chickpea [38], green gram [39], french bean [40], and cowpea [15]. The results of this study contribute to the growing body of knowledge about the effect of these micronutrients on lentils.…”

Adequate supply of micronutrients is important for the proper growth and yield of lentil, particularly in poorly fertile soil. This study was carried out to understand the effects of zinc (Zn), boron (B), and molybdenum (Mo) on the growth and yield of lentil, and how these elements can help manage soil fertility issues. In this regard, the morpho-physiological traits of lentils (BARI Masur-7) were collected from two experiments receiving the same treatments carried out during consecutive rabi seasons of 2015-2016 and 2016-2017. The experiments were laid out with a randomized complete block design having eight treatments, and was replicated thrice. The treatments were T 1 (Control), T 2 (Zn 2.0 kg ha −1), T 3 (B 1.

“…Significantly the highest number of pods per plant (28.7 in 1 st year and 33.0 in 2 nd year) and seeds per pod (12.1 in 1 st year and 12.0 in 2 nd year) were recorded from the treatment T 8 and the minimum of both characters were noted in T 1 treatment (Table 4). Valenciano et al (2011) reported that combined application of Zn, B and Mo contributed to get maximum number of pods per plant of chickpea. Every micronutrient donated to obtain higher number of pods per plant.…”

Zinc (Zn), boron (B) and molybdenum (Mo) are essential to increase the productivity of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) and help to maintain the soil fertility but mostly ignored. Hence, an experiment was conducted during the years of 2016 and 2017 to know the impact of Zn, B and Mo on mungbean yield, nutrient uptake, economics and soil fertility improvement. The experiments were planned in randomized complete block design including of eight treatments with three replications. The treatments were T1 = Control, T2 = Zn 2 kg ha-1, T3 = B 1.5 kg ha-1, T4 = Mo 1 kg ha-1, T5 = Zn2B1.5, T6 = Zn2Mo1, T7 = B1.5Mo1 and T8 = Zn2B1.5Mo1. The other fertilizers, N, P, K and S at 20, 20, 30 and 10 kg ha-1, respectively were used in all treatments. The results indicate that the highest seed yield (1522 kg ha-1) was obtained from T8 treatment followed by T7. The highest percent seed yield increment (51.6%) over control was achieved in T8 treatment. Most of the growth and yield contributing characters of mungbean were recorded highest in T8 treatment. The maximum nodulation (37.6) and highest amount of protein (24.3%) was also obtained from T8 treatment. The T8 treatment contributed positively to attain higher total uptake of N, P, K, S, Zn and B by mungbean. The combination of Zn, B and Mo is showed more productive compare to sole or couple use of these micronutrients. The T8 (Zn2B1.5Mo1 kg ha-1) treatment exhibited helpful effects on soil organic matter, total N, available P, Zn and B. This treatment also showed economically better on the basis of net return. Results of the present study suggest that the combination of Zn, B and Mo applied at 2, 1.5 and 1 kg ha-1, respectively could be recommended for mungbean cultivation.
