“…The authors noticed that the application increased leaf chlorophyll, yield and fruit quality rather than control. Additionally, these results are in the same trend as the findings of Sardar et al (2021), they mentioned documented that moringa extract contains a high concentration of hormones, macro and micro minerals, as well as amino acids in the right amounts and many other good compounds. Besides, they reported that it also improved greatly plant growth and the concentration of chlorophyll pigment was also found in stevia leaves.…”

ZnSO4 on vegetative growth, fruit yield, oil yield and fruit quality of ten-year-old olive (Olea europaea) cv. Kalamata. The trees were planted at a distance of 6 × 5 m in sandy soil under a drip irrigation system. Sixty-five uniform trees of the same growth and size were randomly chosen, arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD), and subjected to the same applied agricultural practices in the field during the three seasons. The trees were sprayed three times i.e., at the start of the season (April), at full bloom (mid of May) and three weeks later by the following treatments Control, Moringa Leaf Aqueous (MLAE) at 2000, 4000, and 6000 ppm. The results showed that the foliar application of moringa, zinc and boron solely or in combination improved greatly the leaf chlorophyll content, the number of flowers per m 2 , fruit set % and the leaf content from nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, zinc and boron and the most obvious effect was noticed with the spraying of combination 3 or combination 2 over control or the rest applied treatments in both experimental seasons. Additionally, it was clear from the shown data that moringa at 6000 or 4000 ppm, and zinc sulfate at 1000 were more effective in improving the same measured parameters over the rest applied treatments in both experimental seasons. The influence of 1000 ppm from zinc or born in olive trees was higher than the effect of 500 or 250 ppm from these elements during study seasons.

“…In the presence of phytopathogens, the combined treatment (P-WBF and mycorrhiza) increased chlorophyll, carbohydrate, flavonoid, and antioxidant activity in S. rebaudiana as compared to other treatments performed in the study. Bacillus -based bioformulations with several PGP properties have been found to improve plant growth and nutrient, chlorophyll, and metabolite content in a variety of medicinal, vegetable, and fruit crops [ 36 , 37 ]. The Bacillus sp.…”

The excess use of chemicals by farmers in the agroecosystems degrades soil quality, disturbs soil ecology, and increases soil salinity and health hazards in humans. Stevia rebaudiana is an important medicinal and aromatic crop whose leaves contain steviol glycosides (SGs). The Bacillus safensis NAIMCC-B-02323 strain STJP from the rhizosphere of S. rebaudiana producing salicylic acid (16.80 µg/mL), chitinase (75.58 U/mL), β-1,3-glucanase (220.36 U/mL), and cellulase (170 U/mL) was taken as a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). The cell-free supernatant (CFS) from strain STJP showed significant biocontrol activity against Alternaria alternata (80%), suggesting the protective role of extracellular metabolite(s) against phytopathogens. Paneer whey-based bioformulation (P-WBF) was developed to exploit B. safensis STJP to enhance the growth, nutrient uptake, soil properties, stevioside content, and SGs biosynthesis in S. rebaudiana under an A. alternata-infested field. The combined treatment of P-WBF and mycorrhiza (Glomus fasciculatum ABTEC) significantly enhanced plant growth parameters after 90 days, in comparison with control. The symbiotic action (P-WBF and mycorrhiza) displayed much better results in terms of chlorophyll a and b (improved by 132.85% and 39.80%, respectively), protein (by 278.75%), flavonoid (by 86.99%), carbohydrate (by 103.84%), antioxidant (by 75.11%), and stevioside (by 120.62%) contents in plants as compared to the untreated set. Further, the augmentation of potassium (by 132.39%), phosphorous (by 94.22%), and zinc (by 111.11%) uptake in plant tissues and soil was also observed by the application of P-WBF and mycorrhiza. The expression of UGT74G1 and UGT85C2 genes related to SG biosynthesis was upregulated (2.7- and 3.2-fold, respectively) in plants treated with P-WBF and mycorrhiza as further confirmed by the accumulation of SGs. The results suggest that the application of P-WBF and mycorrhiza not only provides an ecofriendly and sustainable solution to improve stevioside content in S. rebaudiana by a nutrient-linked mechanism but also paves the way to enhanced production of stevioside.

“…The need of Olive trees for fertilization is one of the important factors for the continuity of growth and physiological processes within the plant, including the process of photosynthesis, and the great role of fertilization in increasing vegetative growth and improving the nutritional status of trees, which prompts them to form a strong structure and thus is reflected in increased productivity [5]. One of the natural materials that have a role in increasing the growth of plants are plant extracts, including Moringa Leaves extract, which contains the main nutrients, amino acids and vitamins, in addition to that it contains natural growth hormones such as Zeatin, and this extract works to supply the plant with natural nutrients that act on Increased vegetative growth, which is reflected in an increase in yield [6]. The study aims to know the effect of Organic fertilizers, Chemical fertilizers, and Moringa Leaves extract on Olive trees and their role in growth and improving the nutritional status of trees.…”

The study was Conducted in the Orchard of the Department of Horticulture and Landscape Engineering at the College of Agriculture-University of Anbar for the season 2021-2022 on Olive Trees, cv. K18, at the age of 8 years, to find out the effect of adding Organic fertilizer at levels H0 without addition and H1, adding Humic acid at a Concentration of 10 g L-1 and H2, adding poultry waste at a level of 8 kg Tree-1 and the addition of NPK in three Concentrations N0 without addition and N1 concentration of 50g Tree-1 and N2 Concentration of 100g Tree-1 and spraying with Moringa Leaves extract with two concentrations M0 without spraying and M1 spraying with a concentration of 4% in the Content of Olive tree Leaves of some compounds and nutrients. A factorial experiment was carried out according to the Randomized Complete Block Design RCBD with three Replications. The results showed the significant superiority of the Treatment of adding poultry waste at the level of 8kg Tree-1 in the Leaves Content of Total Phenols 105.59%, Phenol Oleuropein 92.03%, Nitrogen 1.585%, Phosphorus 0.119%, Potassium 0.831% and Magnesium 0.234%. and Calcium amounted to 1.239%, and the Treatment of adding Chemical fertilizer with a concentration of 100g Tree-1 excelled in all studied traits. As for spraying with Moringa Leaves extract, there were significant differences in the Leaves’ Content of compounds and nutrients. As for the binary and triple interactions between the study factors, they were There are significant differences in most of the studied traits.
