“…Similar findings were reported for other legume species such as lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) (Karan et al, 2014), green gram (Vigna radiata) (Padbhushan and Kumar, 2015), and the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) (Harmankaya et al, 2008). Bogiani and Rosolem (2012) reported that B deficiency caused rapid inhibition of root growth in cotton, possibly as a result of the induction of auxin synthesis (Camacho-Crist obal et al, 2015).…”

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of boron (B) omission on cowpea nutrition and to compare the impact of foliar B fertilization with and without sorbitol on cowpea growth, nutritional status, and B uptake. Two trials using a completely randomized experimental design were conducted. During the first experiment, nutrient solution was provided without B (LB) and with B (+B) in 10 replicates. During the second experiment, a 5 3 2 factorial treatment scheme was used. Five B concentrations (0, 1.25, 2.5, 3.75, and 5.0 g · L L1 ) were administered foliarly in the form of boric acid with or without sorbitol (500 mmol · L L1 ) in four replicates. B omission symptoms, root growth, plant organ dry mass and B content, and grain yield were evaluated. B omission induced greater losses in reproductive organ and root growth than in leaf and stem production. It also caused deformation of the middle lamella and accumulation of starch in the chloroplasts. Foliar applications of 2.6 to 2.9 g · L L1 B improved cowpea production. The addition of sorbitol did not enhance plant growth. However, it increased B absorption in the vegetative parts of the plant but did not enhance seed production.

“…Cotton is found to be more sensitive to B deficiency at the reproductive phase which might the major factor of low seed cotton yield on B-deficient soils (Rosolem and Costa 2000;de Oliveira et al 2006). The boll formation and retention in cotton is greatly affected by carbohydrate contents in plants which depends on the B-driven movement of photo-assimilates from leaves to fruits (Bogiani and Rosolem 2012). The reduction in carbohydrate translocation due to B deficiency may cause increased boll shedding, and less seed cotton yield (Zhao and Oosterhuis 2003).…”

Growth, yield and fiber quality characteristics of Bt and non-Bt cotton cultivars in response to boron nutrition

Background Boron (B) deficiency is an important factor for poor seed cotton yield and fiber quality. However, it is often missing in the plant nutrition program, particularly in developing countries. The current study investigated B's effect on growth, yield, and fiber quality of Bt (CIM-663) and non-Bt (Cyto-124) cotton cultivars. The experimental plan consisted of twelve treatments: Control (CK); B at 1 mg·kg−1 soil application (SB1); 2 mg·kg−1 B (SB2); 3 mg·kg−1 B (SB3); 0.2% B foliar spray (FB1); 0.4% B foliar spray (FB2); 1 mg·kg−1 B + 0.2% B foliar spray (SB1 + FB1); 1 mg·kg−1 B + 0.4% B foliar spray (SB1 + FB2); 2 mg·kg−1 B + 0.2% B foliar spray (SB2 + FB1); 2 mg·kg−1 B + 0.4% B foliar spray (SB2 + FB2); 3 mg·kg−1 B + 0.2% B foliar spray (SB3 + FB1); 3 mg·kg−1 B + 0.4% B foliar spray (SB3 + FB2). Each treatment has three replications, one pot having two plants per replication. Results B nutrition at all levels and methods of application significantly (P ≤ 0.05) affected the growth, physiological, yield, and fiber quality characteristics of both cotton cultivars. However, SB2 either alone or in combination with foliar spray showed superiority over others, particularly in the non-Bt cultivar which responded better to B nutrition. Maximum improvement in monopodial branches (345%), sympodial branches (143%), chlorophyll-a (177%), chlorophyll-b (194%), photosynthesis (169%), and ginning out turn (579%) in the non-Bt cultivar was found with SB2 compared with CK. In Bt cultivar, although no consistent trend was found but integrated use of SB3 with foliar spray performed relatively better for improving cotton growth compared with other treatments. Fiber quality characteristics in both cultivars were improved markedly but variably with different B treatments. Conclusion B nutrition with SB2 either alone or in combination with foliar spray was found optimum for improving cotton's growth and yield characteristics.

Compared boron uptake and translocation in cotton cultivars

Abstract: SUMMARYThe mobility of boron (B), a commonly deficient micronutrient in cotton, has been shown to be low in the plant phloem. Nevertheless, studies have indicated that cotton cultivars can respond differently to B application. Solo, 36:1499Solo, 36: -1506 2,5; 5,0; 10,0 e 20,0 µmol L -1
