“…Additionally, Cu was positively associated with Zn. Prasad et al [ 46 ] also reported the synergy of Cu and N in strawberries, thus confirming the importance of Cu in N uptake and vice versa.…”

“…N, P, K, and S are essential in plant life processes such as respiration and photosynthesis, osmotic regulation, energy transfer, protein synthesis, enzyme activation, and many others [ 12 ]. According to Prasad et al [ 46 ] and Tohidloo et al [ 47 ], the positive significant correlation among N, P, and K is necessary for better strawberry development which determines the balance between vegetative growth, fruit quality, and reproductive processes. Therefore, positive interactions between Zn and these nutrients indicate the contributing role of a higher macronutrient supply in the development of the plant, including the root system, which also promotes the absorption of micronutrients.…”

The present study was carried out to evaluate the leaf nutrient status of commercially grown strawberries in Latvia during 2014–2022. The results of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Mo and B in 200 strawberry leaf samples from different strawberry-producing farms were analysed over three periods: 2014–2016, 2017–2019, and 2020–2022. According to leaf analyses, plant fertilization was only partly well managed by the growers. During the research period, strawberries in Latvia were generally sufficiently supplied with N, P, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Mo, and B, while the level of Ca, S, Zn, and Cu was considered low. The deficiency of these nutrients was characteristic for more than 50% of the samples. Since Ca, S, Zn, and Cu are essential for berry formation and quality and contribute to stress resistance; their deficiency could be one of the limiting factors for strawberry yield. The significant positive correlations found between nutrients, including deficient ones, confirmed their close relationship in the uptake process and the importance of sufficient supply. The results clearly indicated that fertilization could currently be an issue that limits the strawberry harvest in Latvia, and adequate provisions of Ca, S, Zn, and B should be the main focus.

“…Due to growing environmental concerns, the proper disposal and handling of excess SMS accumulation are essential. Current research has clearly indicated that, due to its high fertilizing value, agricultural application is the most efficient method for SMS recycling [7][8][9][10]. SMS is a valuable source of organic matter and nutrients that is readily available to plants [8,11,12].…”

The huge volumes of currently generated agricultural waste pose a challenge to the economy of the 21st century. One of the directions for their reuse may be as fertilizer. Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) could become an alternative to manure (M). A three-year field experiment was carried out, in which the purpose was to test and compare the effect of SMS alone, as well as in multiple variants with mineral fertilization, and in manure with a variety of soil quality indices—such as enzymatic activity, soil phytotoxicity, and greenhouse gas emissions, i.e., CO2. The use of SMS resulted in significant stimulation of respiratory and dehydrogenase activity. Inhibition of acid phosphatase and arylsulfatase activity via SMS was recorded. SMS showed varying effects on soil phytotoxicity, dependent on time. A positive effect was noted for the growth index (GI), while inhibition of root growth was observed in the first two years of the experiment. The effect of M on soil respiratory and dehydrogenase activity was significantly weaker compared to SMS. Therefore, M is a safer fertilizer as it does not cause a significant persistent increase in CO2 emissions. Changes in the phytotoxicity parameters of the soil fertilized with manure, however, showed a similar trend as in the soil fertilized with SMS.

The effectiveness of the yeast Rhodotorula glutinis was evaluated in the field experiment for control of the gray rot disease on strawberry caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea. The results showed that all treatments of R. glutinis yeast led to a significant superiority in inducing systemic strawberry resistance and an increase in vegetative, productivity and quality indicators of three strawberry cultivars, compared to the Prado fungicide treatment and the pathogenic fungus treatment only. Treatment of filtrate and yeast cells (R. glutinis - Cs +F with B. cinerea) achieved the highest activity of the enzymes that induce plant resistance, which included peroxidase, chitinase and β-glucanase, the enzymatic activity was 2.25, 2.31 and 1.62 units/ml for Albion cultivar, with significant superiority compared to other treatments. The treatment of (R. glutinis - Cs +F) in the presence of the pathogenic fungus recorded the highest vegetative parameters, which included plant height and shoot weight in Albion cultivar, reaching 27.33 cm and 14.66 g, respectively. All treatments of R. glutinis yeast led to a significant superiority in affecting the severity of infection for all studied strawberry cultivars under the infection conditions with the pathogenic fungus B. cinerea, the Albion cultivar achieved the highest decrease in the infection severity reached 17.37% in (R. glutinis - Cs +F with B. cinerea ), while it had the least effect on the severity of infection in the Festival cultivar, reached 95.28% in the treatment of the pathogenic fungus. The yield of strawberry fruits in Albion cultivar was superior compared to other cultivars, as the plant yield reached 68.92 g/plant in the treatment of (R. glutinis-Cs +F with B. cinerea), while the lowest yield was 16.69 g/plant in the Festival cultivar with the pathogenic fungus treatment only. The treatment of yeast filtrate and cells with B. cinerea achieved the lowest infection intensity, the highest hardness and the highest vitamin C content of strawberry fruits after 7 days of harvest, compared to the Prado fungicide treatment and the pathogenic fungus treatment only.
