“…Approximately 2.3 million tons (~ 59%) of consumed sucrose in Egypt is produced from beet and ~ 41% being from cane (CCSC 2018). Due to global climate change, sugar beet production in arid and semiarid climates, including Egypt, has frequently faced adverse environmental challenges such as dryness, heat, nutrient deficiency and soil salinization (Abd El-Mageed et al 2019;Saudy et al 2020Saudy et al , 2022Mekdad et al 2021b;El-Bially et al 2022a;El-Metwally et al 2022).…”

In salt-affected soils, more than one approach should be adopted for minimizing the salinity impacts and enhancing the land productivity. The most effective practices in crop management under saline soil are choosing the plant type and variety and exploiting the best nutrient tactics. Under two soil salinity levels (3.54 and 9.28 dS m−1), representing low and high salinity, respectively), two sugar beet cultivars (Romulus and Francesca) were fertilized with three potassium (K) rates (48, 96, and 144 kg K ha−1), in addition to the check treatment (0 kg K ha−1). During two seasons of 2018/2019 and 2019/2020, treatments were distributed in a split-split plot design based on a randomized complete block arrangement with three replicates. Several physio-biochemical and agronomic traits, as well as leaf mineral contents and juice quality, were assessed. Briefly, findings illustrated that K at a rate of 144 kg ha−1 enhanced cell membrane stability, relative water content, and performance index by 1.17, 1.01, and 2.73 times, respectively, in high salinity soil, compared to low salinity × no K addition. Under high salinity, the addition of 48 and 144 kg K ha−1 recorded the highest values of total phenolic content and total antioxidant activity, respectively. In high salinity soil, K supplying (144 kg ha−1) caused the maximum improvements in gross and white sugar content with a decrease of 42.0% in sodium content and an increase of 35.9% in root yield ha−1. Romulus cultivar fertilized with 144 kg K ha−1 had the maximum relative water content, Fv/Fm, and performance index. Francesca cultivar with 144 kg K ha−1 was the potent combination for increasing total soluble sugars, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and total antioxidant activity. Romulus cultivar fertilized with 144 kg K ha−1 was the best practice for improving all agronomic traits of sugar beet. It could be concluded that a high potassium rate, i.e., 144 kg K ha−1, reduced the injury ionic impacts of saline soils along with improving the genetic makeup of sugar beet cultivars, expressed in sugar yield and quality. However, all other attempts for reclamation of the saline soil should be adopted for increasing the potentiality of K fertilizer and enhancing gene expressions of different sugar beet varieties.

“…In addition, the use of nitrogen results in beneficial interactions with phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, and iron. Since nitrogen is the most active nutrient and the building block of all plant structures (Saudy et al, 2022), including it in the production of sesame is of the utmost importance. The color of the seed, the size of the seed, the fragrance, the oil content, and the protein content all contribute to the overall quality of the sesame seed.…”

Sesame, a traditional oilseed crop with a long history, has been cultivated and utilized by people in Pakistan for centuries. In the year 2018, a total of 29,000 tons of sesame seeds were harvested from an extensive area of 176,000 acres in Pakistan. According to the Federal Bureau of Statistics for the year 2018-19, Pakistan exported sesame seeds worth Rs. 9,000 million, which amounted to a staggering 366 million tons (AARI 2018-19). Nitrogen (N) is an element that is prominently included in the metabolic system of plants. Protein is involved in all of the activities that are necessary for the survival of plants, and an important component of protein is nitrogen. During Kharif season 2022 to study the expansion and yield reaction of Sesame to various nitrogen concentrations. The treatments included T1 = Control (Zero N), T2 = Recommended dose N @60 kg ha-1, T3 = 10% higher than recommended N and T4 = 10% less than recommended N. The field experiment was carried out to assess during June 2022–2023. at the experimental students farm department of Agronomy at Sindh Agricultural University, Tandojam. The experiment was set up using a Randomized Complete Block Design with a plot size of 3 x 4 12 m2. The sesame crop fertilized with treated with T4 = 10% less than recommended N resulted 158.57 cm plant height, 8.00 branches plant-1, 151.04 capsules plant-1, 33.35 number of seeds capsule-1, 3.61 g seed index (1000-grain weight), 41.26 g seed yield plant-1 and 761.08 kg ha-1 seed yield. Similarly, T3 = 10% higher than recommended N resulted 132.63 cm plant height, 6.47 branches plant-1, 145.45 capsules plant-1, 30.34 number of seeds capsule-1, 3.31 g seed index (1000-grain weight), 36.35 g seed yield plant-1 and 712.45 kg ha-1 seed yield. However, recommended dose of N 117.82 cm plant height, 5.57 branches plant-1, 121.88 capsules plant-1, 23.28 numbers of seeds capsule-1, 3.14 g seed index (1000-grain weight), 32.07 g seed yield plant-1 and 540.46 kg ha-1 seed yield. The sesame crop under control (Zero N) with 91.12 cm plant height, 4.34 branches plant-1, 41.30 capsules plant-1, 17.02 number of seeds capsule-1, 2.78 g seed index (1000-grain weight), 21.02 g seed yield plant-1 and 363.75 kg ha-1 seed yield. Based on the findings of the current research, it was determined that as the nitrogen levels increased, both the growth and yield of sesame showed a simultaneous increase. Notably, the sesame plants that were fertilized with T4, which was 10% less nitrogen than the recommended amount, resulted in the highest grain yield (761.08 kg ha-1), followed by T3 = N @ 50 kg ha-1 (712.45 kg ha-1) and T3 = N @ 45 kg ha-1 (10 % less than recommended N) (540.46 kg ha-1).

“…Sesame ( Sesamum indicum ) is produced in many African countries. An Egyptian group [ 76 ] studied the effect of treating three different sesame genotypes with a mixture of Fe, Mn, and Zn in nano form; however, the production of such Fe, Zn, and Mn fertilizers in the nano form has not been clearly described by authors.…”

Plant iron (Fe) nutrition and metabolism is a fascinating and challenging research topic; understanding the role of Fe in the life cycle of plants requires knowledge of Fe chemistry and biochemistry and their impact during development. Plant Fe nutritional status is dependent on several factors, including the surrounding biotic and abiotic environments, and influences crop yield and the nutritional quality of edible parts. The relevance of plant Fe research will further increase globally, particularly for Africa, which is expected to reach 2.5 billion people by 2050. The aim of this review is to provide an updated picture of plant Fe research conducted in African countries to favor its dissemination within the scientific community. Three main research hotspots have emerged, and all of them are related to the production of plants of superior quality, i.e., development of Fe-dense crops, development of varieties resilient to Fe toxicity, and alleviation of Fe deficiency, by means of Fe nanoparticles for sustainable agriculture. An intensification of research collaborations between the African research groups and plant Fe groups worldwide would be beneficial for the progression of the identified research topics.
