Different nitrogen sources are effective on plants growth and yield. Ammonium [NH4+-N], nitrate [NO3--N] and amide [CO (NH2)2] are the three different nitrogen sources. Here, we studied the effects of 9 ratios of different nitrogen forms with equal nitrogen on dry matter, nitrogen utilization and yield in cucumber. The results demonstrated that the yield of cucumber was enhanced as.... Read more

Physiological responses of sweet potato seedlings under drought-stress conditions with selenium applications
Research Article

Chongping Huang, Mingyan Yu, Li Sun, Nannan Qin and Lai Wei


 

Drought often occurs during sweet potato growth and development, and selenium (Se) has beneficial roles in alleviating biotic and abiotic stresses. Here, we investigated the changes in antioxidative enzyme activities in leaves and fibrous roots, photosynthetic rates and chlorophyll fluorescence levels in seedlings of two sweet potato cultivars ‘Xinxiang’ and ‘Zheshu 77’....
