“…Biofertilizers increase crop growth and productivity through different mechanisms, i.e. biological nitrogen fixation as Effective micro-organisms and Minia Azotein, growth promoting or hormonal substances, increasing availability of soil nutrients (Hedge et al, 1999;El-Mekawy, 2013 on Achillea santolina and Panah and Vash, 2014 on Calendula officinalis).…”

The effects of compost (5, 7.5 and 10 ton/fed), NPK (50, 75 and 100%) and/or Effective micro-organisms/Minia Azotein fertilization on plant height, number and dry weight of flowering tops/plant and essential oil productivity (% and yield/plant) were investigated during 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 at the experimental farm, Fac. of Agric., Minia Univ. All treatments of compost significantly increased, plant height, number and dry weight of flowering tops/plant, as well as, essential oil percent and yield/plant. The high level of compost was more effective in this concern. The used of mineral NPK (100%) followed by 75% NPK + E.M. + M.A. treatments were the best results in increasing all previous characters. Generally supplying yarrow plants with compost at the rate of 10 ton/fed and fertilizing plants with NPK (100%) or reduce dose at (75% NPK) plus E.M. + M.A. gave overall the highest values of previous traits.

Abstract. Mohamed MA, Wahba HE, Ibrahim ME, Yousef AA. 2014. Effect of irrigation intervals on growth and chemical composition of some Curcuma spp. plants. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 140-145. The Influence of irrigation intervals on the growth, yield of rhizomes and chemical composition of both Curcuma aromatica and Curcuma domestica plants was investigated. Three irrigation treatments were used in this experiment. The first treatment was irrigated every one week. The second and third treatments were irrigated every two and three weeks. The long irrigation intervals significantly reduced growth parameters and chemical composition. Growth parameters, i.e. plant height, number of leaves, width of the leaf, fresh and dry weight of rhizomes, as well as chemical composition, i.e. total carbohydrate, volatile oil and curcumin in dry rhizomes increased when the plants irrigated every week compared to irrigation treatments every two or three weeks. Also, C. aromatica gave the higher values of growth parameter and chemical composition compared to C. domestica under all irrigation treatments.

Evaluation of phytochemical traits and their correlation studies were conducted with special reference to the quantitative characters of Monarda citriodora Cerv. ex Lag. A field experiment was carried out during two successive cropping seasons of 2014 and 2015 at Field Research Station, Chatha, CSIR -Indian Institute of Integrative Medicine, Jammu to study the effect of four irrigation frequencies (irrigation at 30 (F 1 ), 20 (F 2 ), 15 (F 3 ) and 12 (F 4 ) days interval with four nitrogen levels, viz., N 0 (0), N 1 (40), N 2 (80) and N 3 (120) kg N ha -1 on quantitative characters and phytochemical traits in M. citriodora. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design with 3 replications. Results showed that plant height, number of branches per plant -1 , leaf area index, dry matter partitioning (leaf g/plant) and (stem g/plant) were significantly higher with treatment F 3 over F 2 and F 1 , though remained at par with F 4 (12 days interval) during 2014 as well as 2015. F 1 treatment took significantly least number of days for initiation of primary and secondary branches, however, days taken to flowering at initiation, 50% and 75% was significantly least in F 4 treatment over other treatments. Thymol content was significantly higher with treatment F 2 over other treatments, while significantly highest carvacrol content was recorded with treatment F 3 , though it remained at par with F 2 treatment. Nitrogen level N 2 significantly increased plant height, number of branches per plant -1 and leaf area index, while in case of dry matter partitioning, N 2 and N 1 remaining at par recorded significantly higher dry matter partitioning over N 1 and N 0 . Thymol content was significantly higher with N 1 level, while as carvacrol content was recorded significantly higher with N 2 level when compared to other treatments during the two years of study. In case of irrigation frequencies, it was observed that with increase in the quantitative characteristics of M. citriodora, the phytochemical traits, viz., thymol and carvacrol contents also showed the increased trend and visa-versa, while in case of nitrogen treatments, the increase in the quantitative characteristics showed the decrease in phytochemical traits.
