Effect of irrigation with saline magnetized water and different soil amendments on growth and flower production of Calendula officinalis L. plants

Abstract: Global climate change and increased population caused significant depletion of freshwater especially in arid and semi-arid regions including Saudi Arabia. Saline water magnetization before irrigation may help in alleviating the adverse effects of salinity on plants. The current study aimed to examine the potential beneficial effects of water magnetization and soil amendments on growth, productivity, and survival of Calendula officinalis L. plants. Three types of water (tap water “control… Show more

“…These findings imply that treatment with magnetized water can contribute to the development of a more extensive root system in Nipponbare seedlings, which may promote nitrogen acquisition, thereby enhancing tolerance to nitrogen deficiency caused by saline–alkaline stress. In accordance with our findings, other studies have also demonstrated that irrigation with magnetized water can stimulate root growth, hence mitigating the growth-inhibiting effects of stress on plants such as cotton [ 32 ], Populus [ 43 ], wheat, and rice [ 44 ].…”

“…Effective nutrient absorption mechanisms that equip plants with abiotic stress tolerance may be the result of increasing the available nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to plants in stressed soils, as magnetized water irrigation enhanced fertilizer dissolution and deeper soil penetration [ 22 ]. In addition, plants irrigated with magnetized water have a larger capacity to tolerate salt and drought stress by generating more phytohormone, soluble sugar, free amino proline, and acids compared with plants irrigated with untreated water [ 26 , 28 , 29 , 31 , 32 ]. Recently, studies have been carried out to investigate the molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying the effect of magnetic water treatments on the development of plants and the germination of seeds when the plants are subjected to salt and drought stress.…”

“…These results may be due to the decreasing in water surface tension and viscosity which resulted in an improvement in water uptake ( Takatshinko, 1997 ). Similarly, Elhindi et al (2020) reported that the magnetizing water in pot marigold plant decreased Na and Cl, but increased N, P, and K.…”

“…The decrease in plant growth was observed when irrigation was done with saline water. Maximum growth in terms of height, stem diameter, number of branches was observed when irrigated with magnetically treated saline water in soil with peat moss and ferrous sulphate [8]. A reduction in number of flowers was observed with saline and magnetically treated saline water but reduction was less when magnetic treatment of saline water was done.…”

“…A reduction in number of flowers was observed with saline and magnetically treated saline water but reduction was less when magnetic treatment of saline water was done. Irrigation with magnetically treated saline water enhanced plants nutrients N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe as compared to normal or untreated saline water [8]. Combination of bio and chemical fertilisers with magnetised water gave highest values of all traits such as fruit yield, fructose content (13.1%), fruit diameter (11.6%), fibre content, fruit firmness (3%) [9].…”
