“…The increment in number of leaves (Table 4) obtained by zeolite increase photosynthetic surfaces and the current of photosynthetic production of more assimilates which cause a significant increment in the productivity traits. These results in harmony with Polat et al (2004), Gul et al (2005), Ozbahce et al (2014 and Mahmoud et al (2017). Concerning compost effects on fruits quality parameters, this result has the same line with the findings of Santiago et al (2009) and Kashem and Warman (2009).…”

Two investigations were carried out in the open field to study the effects of some soil stimulating supplements, i.e., humic and fulvic acids, zeolite, chicken manure as well as compost on vegetative growth, chemical contents and productivity of sweet pepper plants under drip irrigation system. Results indicated that all applied soil substances significantly enhanced vegetative growth parameters, chemical constituents, endogenous phyto-hormones of leaves, yield and fruit quality compared to the control in both growing seasons of study. Soil applications of either zeolite or compost are the best treatments in enhancing most of the aforementioned parameters. Additionally, our results undoubtedly confirm that the application of zeolite or compost could decrease chemical fertilizers through improving the efficiency of both fertilizers and irrigation water which in turn increase vegetable crops production, minimize economic costs as well as limit environmental contamination.

“…Nutritional quality significantly influences plant performance, especially in terms of its physiological mechanisms for producing essential oils. Numerous researchers have endorsed these ideas, including Jimayu (2017), Mahmoud et al (2017), Acimovic et al (2015 a & b), Ahmadian et al (2011 and Sangwan (2001).…”

The current study was carried out to study the growth, yield and essential oil percentage of fennel as influenced by different concentrations of zinc and humic acid. The treatments were comprised of foliar application of zinc at three rates (0, 100 and 200 ppm) and soil drench of humic acid at four rates (0, 500, 750 and 1000 ppm), as well as their interactions. The results revealed that zinc treatment at 100 ppm significantly increased the number of branches/plant, number of umbels/plant, herb fresh and dry weights/plant, fruit yield/fed and essential oil %. However, raising zinc concentration to 200 ppm revealed a significant decrease in fruit yield/fed. Soil application of humic acid at the moderate level (750 ppm) scored the highest values compared to the other levels on all parameters except for plant height and herb fresh weight. The interaction effect was statistically significant on all examined parameters. In this connection, combined zinc treatment at 100 ppm and humic acid at 750 ppm proved superior in all measured parameters except for plant height. Thus, our study provides valuable information about the possibility of improving the growth and productivity of fennel plants using a combined treatment of zinc and humic acid.

“…Similarly, Subbaiah et al (2016) demonstrated that, nano ZnO increased growth, yield, and Zn content of maize. Still, the agronomic effectiveness of nano practical compared to non-nano forms of micronutrients has yet to be fully resolved (Mahmoud et al 2017).…”

“…Deficiency of carbohydrates may stimulate the degradation fatty acids to acetyl co-enzyme A and it leads to decreased oil content (Marschner & Rengel 2012). Also, Mahmoud et al (2017) concluded that application of organic fertilisers, natural soil amendments and chemical fertilisers (nano form) produced high er growth characteristics, chemical composition and oil yield in comparison with results derived from chemical fertilisers NPK on caraway plant.…”

Profitable prospective of rocket plant is progressively growing recently. Hence an experiment was conducted in open field to evaluate the effect of chicken manure, nano iron (Fe), nano zinc (Zn) and combination of them on morphological, fresh weight and seed yield, photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, water use efficiency and chemicals constituents represented in macro and micro elements, plant pigments, total phenolics, total carbohydrate, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, ascorbic acid, crude protein, total fatty acids, indole acetic acid (IAA) and abscisic acid (ABA) hormones, oil seed yield and methylthiobutyl- isothiocyanate as main sulphur content in essential oil of Eruca sativa Mill. compared to chemical fertilisers (NPK) as control. Results revealed that, nano Fe and Zn treatments either alone or in combination with manure had the upper hand, where significantly increased almost all parameters under study in comparison with control. The outcomes of present research gave emphasis to global warning about pollution of chemical fertilisers and safety production.
