“…The other genotypes had a quadratic effect and according to the regression equations, total water depths of 109.1 (99% ETc) and 106.0 mm (94% ETc) reduced the number of non-commercial roots of the cultivars Saxa and Crimson Giant, with values of 9.8 and 16.8 units m -2 , respectively (Figure 3). This indicates that both water deficit and excess affected radish quality, which is in accordance with Alves et al (2017) and Noman et al (2018). Silva et al (2017) reported that the presence of cracks is one of the reasons of making a radish noncommercial, but the best way to prevent cracking in roots is to maintain a uniform water supply.…”

“…Water deficiency is usually the most limiting factor for obtaining high productivity and good quality products (Carmichael et al, 2012;Abdel, 2015;Cunha et al, 2017), but its excess can also be detrimental. Soil water content during the crop cycle should be maintained constant, avoiding fluctuations to avoid cracks in the roots and decreases in quality (Silva et al, 2012;Alves et al, 2017;Silva et al, 2017;Noman et al, 2018).…”

In radish production, the choice of proper genotypes and irrigation regime is of great importance to achieve success. In light of this, the current study aimed to evaluate the agronomic performance of a few radish genotypes under different irrigation strategies. The plants were grown in the city of Unaí-MG, in Brazil, under field conditions, and during two cycles, one of 40 days (from February 28 to April 8, 2015) and other of 51 days (from May 9 to June 28, 2015). The experimental design was a randomized block design in a split-plot arrangement with four replications. The treatments consisted of four irrigation strategies (50, 75, 100, and 125% of crop evapotranspiration-ETc) applied by a dripping irrigation system, while subplots consisted of three radish cultivars (Comet, Saxa, and Crimson Giant). We evaluated the following parameters: root system depth, leaf chlorophyll content, shoot fresh matter, diameter and length of tuberous root, number, and mass of commercial and non-commercial tuberous roots, and water use efficiency. All the radish genotypes showed no differences for agronomic characteristics. Under Brazilian Cerrado conditions, the most suitable irrigation strategy for radish crops is 100% of ETc.

“…Among different techniques that are being used for the induction of stress tolerance, seed priming is considered an important one [4]. In seed priming, the seeds are soaked in specific levels of a given chemical for a specific time, which is enough for its absorption to the embryonic regions [21]. These absorbed chemicals are then used at the lateral growth stages for the induction of stress tolerance by modulating different metabolic processes [20].…”

“…Some high-yielding crop genotypes are sensitive to different abiotic stresses. Different methods or techniques are being used to improve the crop stress tolerance for better production [1,20,21]. The response of drought-treated Brassica napus plants was found to be positively associated with osmotic regulation [22].…”

The present experiment was carried out to study the influences of exogenously-applied nitric oxide (NO) donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as seed primers on growth and yield in relation with different physio-biochemical parameters, antioxidant activities, and osmolyte accumulation in wheat plants grown under control (100% field capacity) and water stress (60% field capacity) conditions. During soaking, the seeds were covered and kept in completely dark. Drought stress markedly reduced the plant growth, grain yield, leaf photosynthetic pigments, total phenolic content (TPC), total soluble proteins (TSP), leaf water potential (Ψw), leaf turgor potential (Ψp), osmotic potential (Ψs), and leaf relative water content (LRWC), while it increased the activities of enzymatic antioxidants and the accumulation of leaf ascorbic acid (AsA), proline (Pro), glycine betaine (GB), malondialdehyde (MDA), and H2O2. However, seed priming with SNP and H2O2 alone and in combination mitigated the deleterious effects of water stress on growth and yield by improving the Ψw, Ψs, Ψp, photosynthetic pigments, osmolytes accumulation (GB and Pro), TSP, and the antioxidative defense mechanism. Furthermore, the application of NO and H2O2 as seed primers also reduced the accumulation of H2O2 and MDA contents. The effectiveness was treatment-specific and the combined application was also found to be effective. The results revealed that exogenous application of NO and H2O2 was effective in increasing the tolerance of wheat plants under drought stress in terms of growth and grain yield by regulating plant–water relations, the antioxidative defense mechanism, and accumulation of osmolytes, and by reducing the membrane lipid peroxidation.

“…However, CFs unable to continue their normal life activities due to the loss of nutrients such as carbohydrates and inorganic salts (Noman et al, 2017). Several factors including hindering the water absorption by flower stem, dryness of petals, wilting, water loss, reducing of FW (Noman et al, 2018) -dull color, fungal and bacterial infestation at cut sites of the flower branch led to the aging of the CFs. One of the big problems in post-harvest CF physiology is the blockage of the vascular system.…”

This study was carried out in the laboratory of Shangqiu Institute of Technology, Henan to investigate the effect of a different combination of inorganic salt on the quality and physiological characteristics of cut flowers (CFs) of Perpetual Carnation. Furthermore, to find out the best preservation solution of inorganic salt that can enhance the ornamental value of CFs of Carnation and prolong its vase life. Sucrose, 8-hydroxyquinoline, paclobutrazol, salicylic acid and different kinds of inorganic salts were added as a preservation solution. And the same amount of distilled water was used as control. The effects of these various inorganic salts on the morphological characteristics including vase life, changes in flower stems, fresh weight (FW) and water balance and the physiological characteristics including contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), cell membrane permeability and the contents of proline of carnation were investigated. The CFs placed in vase solution with inorganic salts showed significant changes in its morphology and physiological characteristics as compared to control. The changes in flower diameter (FD), FW, malondialdehyde and cell membrane permeability showed an increasing trend first and then decreasing. The value of water balance was observed with a downward trend. However, the vase life, FD, the contents of malondialdehyde, contents of proline and FW of CFs held in the preservative solution containing inorganic salts were increased than that of control. The fresh preservative solution contained sucrose 3% + 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) (200 mg·L‾1) + paclobutrazol (100 mg·L‾1) + salicylic acid (SA) (25 mg·L‾1) + CaCl2 (100 mg·L‾1) has the best effect on longevity (34 days), FW and FD of carnation CFs. This solution has improved the ornamental and physiological characteristics of fresh carnation CFs.
