“…According to [7], the C.E.C of an ideal substrate is between 10 to 30 meq/100 g dry weight, which coincides with the results of the analysis of the substrates studied and which are between 13.33 and 26.9 meq/100 g. In terms of water retention, the results obtained show that the addition of coconut fiber has generated an increase in water retention capacity. Concerning total porosity, the substrates meet the considered standard of total porosity of the culture substrates (Pt ≥ 50%).…”

“…This in turn causes high evaporation rate resulting in adverse loss in water (Sugiharto, 2018). Studies have showed that inhibition in rate of photosynthesis (along with buildup of carbohydrates (Marcos et al, 2018)) and decrease in leaf turgor potentials are the major physiological reason behind the crop production and yield losses (Gong et al, 2005, Tahi et al, 2007, Özenç, 2008). Sugarcane is a commercial crop majorly for production of sugar and ethanol in the world.…”

Sugarcane is a significant crop for production of sugar and ethanol in the world. In present perspective, drought is one of the frequently occurring abiotic stresses hampering the productivity of sugarcane causing heavy losses in sugar recovery. Post-harvest sugarcane deterioration attains more importance. Measures have been recommended in harvested canes to prevent these losses in general and under drought conditions but application of chemical formulation has not yet been tested over drought effected ones. Thus, we tried to investigate the efficacy of chemical formulation [Benzalkonium chloride (BKC) + Sodium metasilicate (SMS)] on sucrose losses occurring in harvested canes grown under drought and normal conditions. Results showed that application of chemical formulation had higher effect on drought canes in comparison to normal grown canes. Loss in cane weight was reduced to 8.25% and 11% in drought treated and normal treated grown canes, respectively, after 240 h of harvest in comparison to their respective control. In sucrose content and Commercial cane sugars %, drought treated canes showed an effect of BKC + SMS by reducing the losses to 1.26 units and 1.42 units, respectively, whereas in normal ones, reduction was of 0.38 units and 0.10 units, respectively. Biochemical analysis revealed that in reducing sugars, reduction in increase were of 44.51% and 25.50% in drought and normal grown canes, respectively, after 240 h of harvest. Dextran and soluble acid invertase estimations revealed that after application of BKC + SMS, reduction of dextran and invertase activity were of 49.74%, 66.84%, respectively, and 33.92%, 42.75%, respectively, in drought and normal grown canes, respectively. Total microbial load, showed effectiveness of 25.01% in drought grown canes while 14.41% in normal grown ones after 240 h of harvest. Our study was planned to use the anti-bacterial efficiency of both the chemicals over harvested canes so that the major sucrose losses occurring due to microbial deterioration could be inhibited. The use of this chemical formulation proves to be an effective one over post-harvest sucrose losses, particularly in drought grown canes.

“…It inhibits the photosynthesis of plants, and thus reduces growth and development (Gong et al 2005). It also causes the decrease of leaf turgor potentials and transpiration rates (Tahi et al 2007;Özenç 2008). Many cellular functions of plants, such as nitrogen metabolism, enzyme activities, protein synthesis and cell membrane function can also be impaired under drought stress (Saneoka et al 2004).…”

Drought is a major environmental factor limiting the production of crops. Drought tolerance of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) cultivars in terms of growth and inorganic and organic solute accumulation was analyzed in this study. Four-week-old seedlings of three cultivars, "Gantang7", "SD13829" and "ST21916", differing in drought tolerance, were treated with different degrees of drought stress. Plant shoots and roots were harvested at 5 d after stress and subjected to analysis. Drought significantly reduced shoot fresh weight and water content in the three cultivars, though the least reduction was found in "ST21916". Either decrease or no change in sodium (Na + ) and potassium (K + ) concentrations was observed in the three cultivars as an effect of drought, whereas a higher root Na + and a lower root K + concentration was noted in "Gantang7". Root calcium (Ca 2+ ) concentration significantly increased in "Gantang7" exposed to moderate and severe drought. Severe drought also caused a significant increase in the proline level in "SD13829" but not in "Gantang7" and "ST21916". Under drought stress, soluble sugar concentrations significantly increased in both "Gantang7" and "SD13829" whilst remaining unchanged in "ST21916". It is clear that Na + , K + and soluble sugars are major contributors to osmotic adjustment (OA), while Ca 2+ and proline have minor contributions to OA in all three cultivars. According to our comprehensive assessment of drought tolerance, it is shown that "ST21916" is more tolerant to drought than the other two cultivars. Therefore, our results suggest that "ST21916" may be more suitable for planting in arid and semi-arid regions.
