“…The increased level of tryptophan in NBPT-treated plants can change the level of auxin, which could help enhance plant growth through increased protein synthesis [54]. On the contrary, a urea-fed plant shows lower growth, which may also be attributed to a higher amount of the nickel-dependent urease enzyme present in plants, as Soni and Korgaokar [55] reported that nickel at higher concentrations adversely affects the biomass yield and growth rate. This finding is also supported by Gad et al [56], who observed that a higher concentration of nickel has a negative effect on all the growth parameters of tomato.…”

In agricultural production, nitrogen loss leads to economic loss and is a high environmental risk affecting plant growth, yield, and quality. Use of the N fertilizer with a urease inhibitor is thus necessary to minimize N losses and increase the efficiency of N. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of N-(n-butyl) Thiophosphoric Triamide (NBPT) on the growth, yield, and quality of pineapple. The experiment involved two foliar fertilizer treatments: 1% (w/v) urea solution with NBPT (2.25 mL kg−1 urea) was treated as NLU (NBPT Liquid Urea), and the same concentration of urea without NBPT served as the control. Both were applied 12 times, starting 1 month after planting (MAP) and continuing once a month for 12 months. The application of urea with NBPT notably increased the above-ground dry biomass per plant (20% and 10% at 8 and 12 MAP, respectively), leaf area per plant (23% and 15% at 8 and 12 MAP, respectively), N accumulation per plant (10%), PFPN (Partial Factor Productivity) (13%), and average fruit weight (15%) compared to the treatment with urea alone (control). The analysis of quality parameters indicated that urea with NBPT improves TSS (Total Soluble Solids) (19%), ascorbic acid (10%), and sucrose (14%) but reduces the total organic acid content (21%) in pineapple. When using urea with a urease inhibitor (NBPT), there was a significant improvement in growth, yield, quality, and nitrogen use efficiency, with the additional benefit of reduced nitrogen losses, in combination with easy handling. Hence, urea with a urease inhibitor can be used as a viable alternative for increasing pineapple yield by boosting growth with better fruit quality.

“…But for lower concentrations, the photosynthetic measurements were not affected by treatment and thus could be increased in carbohydrate content [51]. Due to reduced photosynthesis total sugar content could also be affected and in turn decreased concentration of sugar results in reduction of growth rate and biomass content has also been reported [12] [13] [52] [53].…”

“…Such metals accumulate in soil to reach the plant through roots during water absorption and cause serious adverse effects on plants viz., inhibition of seed germination, growth of seedlings and reduction of yield [11]. From these studies it is revealed that at international level there is awareness about the detrimental effect of various heavy metals on the plants [12] [13].…”

BackgroundMetals are one of the micro molecules required by living cell to do their biochemical functions. Out of a list of metals few are very important and useful to cells while few are required in very minute amount and their higher concentration harm or cause adverse effects on living forms. Copper and ferrous are commonly counted as essential metals to plant cells but sometimes their higher concentration is harmful to plant cells. Copper is commonly counted as important metal to plant cells but sometimes their higher concentration is harmful to plant cells.ResultsIt was found that higher concentration of copper and ferrous showed reduction in germination percentages and gemination time of investigated plant while chromium shown lethal impacts on seed germinationConclusionsIn the present study effects of copper, chromium and nickel was studied for total sugar and protein content of widely cultivated pulses i.e. Glycine max. Collectively present study showed that higher concentration of copper and nickel has adverse effects on Glycine max total sugar and protein content while chromium has lethal impacts at lower concentration also.
