“…Plants may have benefited from an earlier supply of nutrients during the floral primordial initiation stage, resulting in a greater number of functional tillers and ultimately more grains/ear heads. These findings are also consistent with those [8].…”

“…However, with 60 kg K/ha+100 PPM NAA + 500 PPM Triacontanol /ha., no other treatment achieved statistical parity.. might due to the presence of Potassium in that application enhances the development of strong cell walls [6] and improves germination of pollen in the florets which leads to high spikelet fertility [7]. The application of triacontanol and NAA was attribute to an increased rate of photo synthetic activity accelerated transport and efficiency of utilization photosynthetic products thus result resulting cell elongation and rapid cell growing portion, increase grain yield the plant" [8].…”

Background: Pearl millet can thrive in a wide range of local conditions. In areas where sorghum cannot thrive, pearl millet is a viable alternative. Sorghum and maize can't compete with pearl millet when it comes to soil moisture utilisation and heat tolerance. Objectives: Effects of Potassium and plant growth regulators on yield and economics of pearl millet. Methods: With the goal of studying the effect of Potassium and plant growth regulators on yield and economics of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) Var. NBH - 5658 under a Randomized block design with 10 treatments (T1-T10 The experimental results revealed that Potassium 60 kg/ha + NAA-100ppm,+Traicontonol-500ppm, produced ear head length (20.50 cm), Number of grains/ear head (1970.0), grain yield (2.72 t/ha), Stover yield (3.78 t/ha) harvest index (41.84 %).T9 Potassium 60 kg/ha + NAA-100ppm,+Traicontonol-500ppm produced greater gross returns (1,36,000.00 INR/ha), net returns (92,840.00 INR/ha), , and benefit-to-cost ratios (2.14).

“…This result indicates that the application of chemical fertilizers in soil not only increases the content of ionic P in maize rhizosphere soil, but also transforms the chemically mobilized P (such as O-P, Ca-P) into the ionic state due to the decrease of soil pH. In this process, although mobilized P is conducive to plant absorption (Schillaci et al 2021;Istenič and Božič 2021;Pedro et al 2021;Suresh et al 2021), and can also increase the risk of soil phosphorus loss with surface runoff (Boero 1977;Li et al 2013;Temporetti et al 2019). Some studies have shown that the organic acids exuded by plant roots reduce the pH of the rhizosphere soil and promotes the release of ionic P. And with the decrease of H + and organic acid in the soil, the insoluble phosphorus compounds (such as calcium phosphate compounds, hydroxy aluminum phosphate (iron) compounds) in the soil are hydrolyzed and dissociated into H2PO4 -, HPO4 2and other ionic states ( (Hayes et al 2000;Boafo et al 2018).…”

Reducing the bioavailability of Pb in soil is the key to alleviate the toxicity of Pb to plant. Maize were exposed to Pb 100 mg/kg of soil with three fertilizer levels of control (T1), nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium of 204 mg/kg (T2) and nitrogen, potassium of 204 mg/kg (T3). The phosphate supplement lead to the reduction by 24.92%, 29.73% and 25.31% respectively in activity of total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), peroxidase (POD) and concentration of lipid peroxidation (MDA) in maize leaves, and reduced Pb accumulation in above- and below-ground biomass of maize by 39.20% and 37.58%. In T2 treatment group, the water soluble Pb, ionic fraction and carbonate fraction Pb in rhizosphere soil decreased by 37.57%, 36.36% and 43.24%, and organic fraction Pb and residual fraction Pb was the highest with the value of 11.67 and 18.57 mg/kg; the soil aluminum bound (Al-P) and iron bound phosphate (Fe-P) were the highest with 93.53 mg/kg and 230.32 mg/kg, indicating that the phosphate supplement increases the soil ionic P and transforms the chemically mobilized P (such as O-P, Ca-P) into the bioavailable P. Moreover, the soil organic fraction and residual fraction immobilized Pb was positively correlated with the bioavailable Al-P and Fe-P, indicating that the ionic fraction P (Al-P and Fe-P) react with Pb and produce residual P-Pb compounds. Therefore, phosphate supplement to Pb contaminated soil could transfer unstable fraction Pb into stable fraction Pb by P-induced Pb immobilization, reduce the bioavailability of Pb and alleviate the toxicity of heavy metal to plant.
