“…Sarikhani et al (2014) found that there is a relationship between increasing freezing tolerance of grapvines and higher bud contents of proline, total proteins and soluble carbohydrates following potassium nutrition. In grape species, carbohydrate content is critical for vine health, especially in the winter when temperatures frequently fall below zero (Fennell, 2004;Karimi Alavijeh et al, 2015;Mohamed et al, 2010;Sarikhani et al, 2014). Several studies have shown that calcium plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism in plants (Bowler and Chua, 1994;Fromm and Lautner, 2010).…”

“…Increases in organic solutes such as proline and protein and/or an increase in nutrient minerals, mainly Ca 2+ , may result in enhanced low temperature tolerance (Verslues et al, 2006).

“…Winter hardiness of deciduous trees is mainly dependent on their internal nutrient reserves (Zachariassen et al, 2004). Plant nutrition may improve freezing tolerance by manipulating the physiological characteristics, dormancy and nutritional status of plants (Apostolova et al, 1996;Karimi et al, 2016;Sarikhani et al, 2014;Stushnoff and Hamman, 2002). In autumn, calcium is transported through the phloem from leaves to the root system, and the remaining calcium is lost via abscised leaves.…”

“…The application of boron on strawberries caused the increased activity of CAT, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase, thereby reducing damage caused by low temperatures (Gunes et al, 2016). The beneficial effects of potassium fertilization on increasing cold tolerance are reported in several studies, such as in the tropical forests of Mexico (Gomes-Ruiz et al, 2016) and in grapes (Sarikhani et al, 2014). In cucumbers, Li et al (2011) found that there was an increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes following the application of cinnamic acid before treatment with low temperatures.…”

Low temperatures affect avocado plants and their response varies across genetic variants. The objective of this study was to assess cold stress of avocado cultivars based on visual, physiological, and biochemical criteria for evaluating freezing injury in these plants. The avocado cultivars 'Geada,' 'Fortuna,' 'Fuerte,' 'Quintal,' 'Margarida,' and 'Primavera' were subjected to temperatures of −2.5, −4.0, −5.0, and −6.0 °C for 1 h in a growth chamber. Their responses to cold stress were evaluated on the basis of visual damage score, photosynthetic rate, water pressure potential, protein content and enzymatic activity. Moreover, the experimental design was factorial and completely randomized with four replicates of each cultivar. An analysis of variance of the results was performed and the means were compared using Tukey's post-hoc test (p <0.05). Evaluations based on the plants water pressure potential, total protein content, catalase activity, photosynthetic rate, and visual damage score were efficient in estimating the effects of cold stress in avocado plants. Additionally, photosynthesis and visual damage score were significantly correlated in all evaluations, enabling classification of the cultivars in terms of response to cold stress. We found that Fuerte was the most tolerant cultivar followed by Geada. The Primavera was the most sensitive cultivar.

“…Foliar Se utilization can alleviate abiotic stresses such as high temperatures induce to higher yield [12]. The application of K 2 SO 4 had capability to boost the freezing tolerance of grapevine and applied as a prophylactic tool to alleviate freezing injury during the winter [13]. Foliar application of zinc, boron, calcium and potassium had significant effects on yield and yield attributes of guava [14].…”

Background The most important advantages of foliar fertilization are to improve plant growth and crop quality, appropriately manage the nutritional status of plants, enhance disease resistance and regulate nutrient deficiencies. Main body The aim of this manuscript is to outline and emphasize the importance of foliar application of nutrients in order to increase both quality and yield of medicinal and aromatic plants. The searches focused on publications from 1980 to July 2021 using PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct and Scopus databases. The current manuscript presented many examples of potential of foliar application for medicinal and aromatic plants production systems. Foliar application of Fe and Zn on Anise; Se on Atractylodes; Zn sulfate on Basil, Costmary, Mint and Fenugreek; Se and Fe on Stevia; S and P on castor bean; Zn and Fe on Chamomile; Cu, Mg and ZnSO4 on Damask rose; N and P on Fennel; Se on water spinach and tea; K+ and Ca2+ on Thyme; Zn and K on Spearmint; Zn on Saffron, Ni on Pot marigold; Fe on peppermint, N and P on Mustard had positive and significant impacts. Conclusion Observed impacts of foliar fertilization consisted of significant increase of yield, enhanced resistance to insects, pests and diseases, improved drought tolerance and escalated crop quality.
