“…Thus, the involvement of these micronutrients in different physiological and biochemical processes resulted in improved achene yield in this study. Several other studies have reported that individual or combined application of micronutrients improved the performance of sunflower under optimal and sub-optimal conditions (Al-Doori and Al-Dulaimy, 2012;da Silva et al, 2016;Steiner and Zoz, 2015;Hlisnikovský et al, 2016;Kumbhar et al, 2017;Khalid et al, 2018) as observed in this study.…”

“…In another study, the foliage application of a mixture of micronutrients [Zn 3%, B 0.3%, iron (Fe) 3% and manganese (Mn) 3%] improved the seed and oil yield in sunflower under salt stress (El-Nasharty et al, 2017). Kumbhar et al (2017) also reported that the application of combined Zn, B and Fe improved the availability of these micronutrients to sunflower plant.…”

“…Although there are several studies which depicts the individual role of Zn (Khurana and Chatterjee, 2001;Mirzapour and Khoshgoftar, 2006;Al-Doori andAl-Dulaimy, 2012), B (Al-Amery et al, 2011;Shaker, 2011;Zahoor et al, 2011;Tahir et al, 2014;Mekki, 2015;da Silva et al, 2016;Khalid et al, 2018), Mo (Škarpa et al, 2013;Steiner and Zoz, 2015), Zn+B (Patil et al, 2006), B+Mn (Jabeen and Ahmad, 2011), Zn+B (Siddiqui et al, 2009), Zn+B+Fe (Nagesh and Shanwad, 2010;Kumbhar et al, 2017), B+Mo (Hirpara et al, 2017), B+sulphur (Karthikeyan et al, 2008;Zafar et al, 2014), B+nitrogen (Parameswari et al, 2012), Zn+phosphorous (Gobarah et al, 2006), Zn+Fe+Mn with manures (Nouraein et al, 2019), Zn+B+Mo+nitrogen (Hlisnikovský et al, 2016), Zn and B with synthetic fertilizer and manures (Dhury et al, 2010), in improving the performance of sunflower under optimal and sub-optimal conditions. Nonetheless no study has been conducted to check the combined influence of foliage applied Zn, B and Mo in improving the achene yield, oil yield, oil quality and economic returns of sunflower under arid climates.…”

The deficiency of micronutrients is one of the main reason for low seed yield in oilseed crops in many developing countries including Pakistan. Therefore, this two-year field study was conducted to assess the influence of foliage applied micronutrients (individual/or in combination) on the yield and quality of sunflower hybrids. For this study, we hypothesized that foliage application of micronutrients will improve achene yield, oil quality and net returns in sunflower hybrids. The results indicated that sunflower hybrid 'Parsun' produced the higher head diameter, and had more 1000-achene weight, achene yield, oil content, stearic acid, palmitic acid and linolenic acid as compared to 'FMC-1'. Likewise the tallest plants, greater number of leaves, maximum seed weight, the highest achene yield, and oil content were noted with the combined application of Zn+B. Highest achene yield with combined application of Zn+B also resulted in highest net income. The application of micronutrient also improved the oil content and oil quality. In conclusion, the hybrid 'Parsun' should be grown with the application of Zn+B (10 and 2 kg ha -1 respectively) to achieve higher achene yield, better seed quality and to earn higher net benefits in sunflower hybrids under arid climate of Layyah Punjab, Pakistan.

“…Arunachalam et al, (2013) [1] studied and reported that basal application of Zn and Fe enhance the soil available Zn and Fe content application of micronutrient increased the kernel Zn content to an average of 28.7% and pod yield of 12.6% in groundnut cultivars. Kumbhar et al, (2017) [10] reveled that application of RDF+20 kg ha-1 ZnSO 4 +20 kg ha -1 EDTA FeSO4+2 kg ha -1 Borax showed significant effect on nutrient availability. The availability of Zn was maximum with application of micronutrient at different growth stages of sunflower over control.…”

Among the nine oilseed crops, groundnut is an important edible oilseed crop of our country and edible oil economy primarily depends upon groundnut production. Zn deficiency in Indian soils is likely to increase from 49 to 63% by 2025. India is leading in groundnut acreage but behind the China in production due to less productivity. Apart from rain dependent cultivation and mineral nutrition play a vital role in groundnut productivity. Among the nutrients, Zn deficiency cause yield loss to the maximum of 40% in groundnut. The average response of groundnut to zinc fertilization ranged from 210 to 470 kg ha -1 . Hence, it is ideal to follow suitable crop improvement and agronomic management strategies to enhance the uptake and availability of Zn in peanut. Keeping in view the above facts, the present review reveals the effect of zinc on growth, yield, nutrient uptake and quality of groundnut.

“…It is widely known that B helps in reducing flower drop, seed setting, and grain filling in oilseed crops such as rapeseed which enhances its productivity (Kumararaja et al, 2015). Thus, the sole application of B or its combined application with other micronutrients has the potential to enhance the productivity of rapeseed due to the residual effect (Kumar et al, 2010). Rashid et al (1994) reported the maximum seed yield increase in Brassica napus (43%) was at 1 kg ha −1 B application and in Brassica juncea (36%) at 1.5 kg B ha −1 rate over no B application.…”

Aluminum toxicity, nutrient imbalance, and reduced microbial activity are the most limiting factors for optimum agronomic productivity in acid soils. A field study was conducted to investigate the impact of micronutrient and liming on soil properties and productivity of groundnut‐rapeseed system in an acidic Inceptisol. The impact of six micronutrient (control or no micronutrient, Zn at 5 kg ha−1, B at 1 kg ha−1, Mo at 0.5 kg ha−1, Zn + Mo, and Zn + B + Mo) and two soil amendment (furrow liming at 500 kg ha−1 and no lime addition) treatments were first tested in groundnut and theirs residual effects were assessed on soil properties of succeeding rapeseed crop. Results indicated that liming significantly improved soil pH, soil organic carbon (SOC), available N, P and K, and diethylene triamine penta acetate (DTPA)‐extractable micronutrients, soil microbial biomass C and dehydrogenase activity as compared to no‐lime. After harvesting groundnut, Mo + Zn + B treated plots maintained the highest SOC content, whereas sole B and Mo treatment had the highest SOC content after harvesting rapeseed. Further, Mo + Zn + B treated plots showed higher contents of soil DTPA‐extractable micronutrients as compared to others. The highest groundnut equivalent yield (GEY) of the cropping system (pooled data of 2 years) was obtained with Mo + Zn + B (2.12 Mg ha−1) but remained at par with Zn + Mo (2.02 Mg ha−1). Multivariate principal component analysis indicated that available P was the most prominent soil nutrient with a strong effect on GEY. The results indicated that integrated application of Zn + B + Mo along with liming improves soil properties and agronomic productivity of groundnut‐rapeseed cropping system.
