“…In this experiment, along with the plant's regular access to water, the supply of various nutrient sources also improved plant yield. These results were constituent with Radnezhad et al, 2015 , Ljubojevi et al, 2017 , who showed that macro fertilizers (NPK), farmyard manure, and hydrogel increased fresh herb weight in S. officinalis . Enhanced plant growth with different nutrient sources might be resulted from improving soil productivity by restoring structure, reviving fertility, and biodiversity of the soil.…”

Salvia officinalis L. is a medicinal plant extensively used in foods, traditional medicine, and the pharmacological industry. In the current study, the effects of different irrigation regimes [irrigation after 70 ± 5 (regular), 105 ± 5 (moderate drought stress), and 140 ± 5 (severe drought stress) mm evaporation] and nutrient sources (control, NPK, farmyard manure, foliar fertilizer, and hydrogel) were investigated on the growth parameters and essential oil (EO) components of S. officinalis in the greenhouse. The plants were harvested two times. The regular irrigation treatment had the most significant effect on plant height (51 cm), fresh and dry herb weight (51.5 and 18.1 g plant −1 ), and fresh and dry leaf weight (40.1 and 13.1 g plant −1 ). The highest amount of EO was observed after moderate drought stress (1.48%). The NPK treatment had the greatest effect on plant height (40 cm), branch number (19 per plant), fresh and dry herb weight (53.4 and 18.9 g plant −1 ), fresh and dry leaf weight (41.2 and 13.6 g plant −1 ), and EO content (1.67%). The 1 st cutting was superior in EO amount, while the 2 nd cutting had a high agronomic yield. α-Thujone (from 21.6 to 34.2%) was identified as the predominant compound. Additionally, the content of α-thujone in the 2 nd cutting was higher after moderate drought stress, NPK, and hydrogel treatments. Moreover, 1,8-cineole, β-thujone, camphene, α-pinene, α-humulene, viridiflorol, borneol, and bornyl acetate were the other main compounds. As a general result, regular irrigation and NPK treatments improved the agronomic yield of S. officinalis . The plants under drought stress produced high amounts of EO. The farmyard manure also improved plant yield by providing a part of the plant's nutritional needs. Therefore, it could be concluded that it is crucial to determine the effects of limited water availability and various nutrient sources on yield and chemical compositions for medicinal and aromatic plant growth.

“…Fertilizing plants with mineral NPK produced an increase in root length as recorded by Rodriguez et al (2002), Barton et al (2006) and Ihtisham et al (2018) on bermudagrass, as well as biofertilizers had positive effect on root length as mentioned by Kumar and Nikhil (2016) on netiver grass, Sabry and Abdal-Latife (2017) on four varieties of lawn grasses, and Radnezhad et al (2015) on Salvia officinalis.…”

“…Biofertilizers can produce biological nitrogen fixation. Biofertilizers play an important role in supplying nutrients essential for plants to produce agriculturally sustainable, economical, and environment-friendly products, by improving the absorption of water and nutrients by the root system (Radnezhad et al, 2015). Many researchers mentioned that as Hussein and Mansour (2003) on kikuyu grass, Kumar and Nikhil (2016) on netiver grass, Sabry and Abdal-Latife (2017) on four varieties of lawn grasses, and Radnezhad et al (2015) on Salvia officinalis.…”

This study was undertaken at the private Farm, Bani Mazar District, Minia governorate. during the two seasons of 2020 and 2021. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of irrigation water salinity, mineral and biofertilization [effective microorganisms (EM) and Azotobacter chroococcum bacteria (AC)] treatments, as well as, their combinations on the root growth and some chemical constituents of bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon, L.), grown in sandy soil. Results showed that the root growth parameters i.e., root length and fresh and dry weights/unit were enhanced with the low and medium levels of salinity (3000 and 6000 ppm), while, they decreased with the high level of salinity (9000 ppm) compared with control, in the third cut during both seasons. On the other hand, all salinity treatments increased Na, Cl, Ca (% in the dry herb) and proline content (in fresh weight), and decreased photosynthetic pigments as well as NPK %. All used mineral and/or biofertilization treatments significantly increased root length and fresh and dry weights/unit comparing with control treatment in 3 rd cut, except AC for root length and EM and AC in case of fresh and dry weights/unit, with the highest values that were obtained due to 100% mineral NPK followed by EM + AC during both seasons. N, P, K and Ca % as well as photosynthetic pigments and proline content were increased due to application with any of the sub-plot treatments, while, Na and Cl were decreased. The best interaction treatments which mitigate the adverse effects of salinity (9000 ppm) were 100% mineral NPK followed by biofertilizer (EM + AC).

“…As stated by Glick [82], PGPRs have a favorable and incremental influence on growth indicators, including leaf area and plant biomass. In comparison to the control treatment, the application of Azotobacter and Azospirillum produced an incremental in plant height and the number of Salvia leaves [83]. Furthermore, Azotobacter increases yield, dry weight, total N content, and plant growth [84].…”

Clary sage (Salvia sclarea L.), a member of the Lamiaceae family of aromatic plants, is used as a flavoring in the food, fragrance, and cosmetic industries. Egypt’s food and pharmaceutical industries require more natural resources, thus new crops have been introduced to meet the demand. In addition, various environmental conditions, such as water stress, influence aromatic plant growth and essential oil output. The microorganisms included in biofertilizers that have enzymes that solubilize minerals include plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs). Therefore, a field experiment was carried out to test how irrigation management, i.e., 100% of reference evapotranspiration (ETo) (full irrigation) or 50% ETo (water stress), can affect herbal yield, essential oil, and physiological aspects of clary sage, as well as how to improve clary sage plants utilizing biofertilizer in the field in Egypt’s Mediterranean climate zone. The main processes through which PGPRs aid clary sage plants in coping with water stress include increased macro and micronutrient concentrations (P, N, K, Ca, Mg, Zn, B, Mn, Cu, and Fe), dehydrogenase activity, essential oil, and physiological and growth traits of photosystem II (Fv/Fm), chlorophyll content (SPAD-value), plant’s health (normalized difference vegetation index, NDVI), shoot dry weight, and leaf area in clary plants. Application of different PGPRs reduced canopy temperature (CT), thus improving clary sage plants either under 100% ETo or 50% ETo. Consequently, the usage of PGPRs is appropriate for alleviating environmental stresses experienced by clary sage plants and has potential use in maintaining productivity in water stress and may thus be regarded as an important component of sustainable agricultural practices.
