“…The same was observed at the nursery level with naranjilla plants and in the field with Zea mays L. and Brassica oleracea L. var acephala where in the absence of S, the plants show a positive response in the development of leaf area and yield [28][29][30]. The opposite happened in S. tuberosum, Glycine max, Triticum aestivum L., and Allium cepa L., where the yield increased when S was applied [31][32][33][34].…”

An application of a balanced nutrition will improve the soil as well as enhance the yield of naranjilla (Solanum quitoense Lam.) grown in the Ecuadorian Amazon. A field experiment was carried out in Palora, 16 de Agosto (Morona Santiago province) and Fátima (Pastaza province) to find which variables are related with the yield of the naranjilla crop and the yield response when the crop receives complete nutrition with N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S plus lime and with the omission of each of these nutrients. A Random Complete Block Design with three replications was used in the three environments. The naranjilla crop had higher yields (18.14 Mg ha−1) in the complete treatments (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S) and without S and Mg, consequently, these two last nutrients did not limit the production. When N, P, K, and Ca were not applied, the yields fell to 14.62 Mg ha−1. The main environmental effect showed that Palora had the highest fruit yields (19.73 Mg ha−1), followed by 16 de Agosto (13.57 Mg ha−1) and finally Fátima with 11.04 (Mg ha−1). These preliminary results showed that with the treatments without S (18.55 Mg ha−1), without Mg (18.42 Mg ha−1) and complete (17.46 Mg ha−1) the highest yields were obtained, consequently, the production was not affected by the absence of these elements; the opposite happened when N, P, K, and Ca were not present.

“…At the R2 reproductive stage, leaves 3 and 4 were collected at random from the apex of 30 plants to determine the nutritional status and chlorophyll level of the plants with hand-held chlorophyll meters (SPAD-502, Minolta, Japan) of the plants, afterwards, the data were transformed in chlorophyll contents (mg cm −2 ) using the equation y = 16.033 + (7.5774 × SPAD) using the equation y = 16.033 + (7.5774 × SPAD) (Moreira et al, 2020). The leaves were collected and dried under forced ventilation oven at 65 ± 5 • C until constant weight.…”

“…It makes some contributions to protein synthesis by orchestrating the folding and structural stability of a protein [6]. Some research showed the positive effect of sulfur on the yield of oil seed crops, such as groundnut [7], rapeseed [8], mustard [9], sesame [10], sunflower [11], and soybean [12,13]. Several field studies have demonstrated that the application of sulfur in conjunction with nitrogen in soybean fields has resulted in a significant increase in seed yield.…”

Sulfur (S) fertilization and rhizobium inoculation are important agronomic practices for improving soybean growth and yield. However, their combined effects on yield components and the resultant impacts on yield need further investigation. Our study aimed to verify the combined effects of S fertilizer and rhizobium inoculant on the yield components and seed yield of soybeans, as well as photosynthesis dynamics during the V5–R6 growth stages. A randomized block design incorporating two factors was employed for field experiments on soybean, involving the application of five rates of sulfur (0, 5.0, 9.8, 14.8, and 19.6 kg S ha−1) with rhizobium inoculation or without. A reduction of 50% in mineral fertilizer according to farmer practice (FP) was applied alongside different rates of sulfur for field experiments on soybeans. The findings indicated that the application of sulfur fertilization significantly enhanced soybean yield by increasing the number of grains per plant (NG) and the number of pods per plant (NP). Maximum grain yield was reached under treatment with an S rate of 19.6 kg S ha−1, which increased NG by 39% more than an S rate of 0 kg S ha−1. Correlation analysis indicated that higher photosynthesis was closely associated with increased yield components. This study demonstrated that applying S fertilizers could improve soybean production by combining the appropriate sulfur concentration and rhizobia inoculation.
