“…Due to narrow range of B concentration, plant analysis is not a helpful technique for estimating B nutritional status. Moreover, the mechanisms of B-toxicity in plants are not well understood [ 30 , 31 ].…”

Boron (B) is required during all growth stages of cotton crop, especially during boll formation. However, Typic Haplocambid soils of cotton growing belt in Pakistan are B-deficient, which results in low yield and economic returns. Foliar application of B improves cotton productivity; however, information is limited on the role of soil applied B in improving cotton growth and yield. The current study investigated the role of soil applied B in improving growth, yield and fiber quality of cotton crop. Five different B doses (i.e., 0.00, 2.60, 5.52, 7.78 and 10.04 mg kg -1 of soil) and two cotton cultivars (i.e., CIM-600 and CIM-616) were included in the study. Soil applied B (2.60 mg kg -1 ) significantly improved growth, yield, physiological parameters and fiber quality, while 10.04 mg kg -1 application improved B distribution in roots, seeds, leaves and stalks. Significant improvement was noted in plant height (12%), leaf area (3%), number of bolls (48%), boll size (59%), boll weight (52%), seed cotton yield (52%), photosynthesis (50%), transpiration rate (10%), stomatal conductance (37%) and water use efficiency (44%) of CIM-600 with 2.60 mg kg -1 compared to control treatment of CIM-616. Similarly, B accumulation in roots, seeds, leaves and stalk of CIM-600 was improved by 76, 41, 86 and 70%, respectively compared to control treatment. The application of 2.60 mg kg -1 significantly improved ginning out turn (6%), staple length (3.5%), fiber fineness (17%) and fiber strength (5%) than no B application. The results indicated that cultivar CIM-600 had higher ginning out turn (1.5%), staple length (5.4%), fiber fineness (15.5%) and fiber strength (1.8%) than CIM-616. In crux, 2.60 mg kg -1 soil B application improved growth, yield, physiological and fiber quality traits of cotton cultivar CIM-600. Therefore, cultivar CIM-600 and 2.60 mg kg -1 soil B application is recommended for higher yield and productivity.

“…Our observation that BA induces the superoxide dismutase Sod1p confirms earlier reports that BA acts on biological Hog1p, Tps1p and Sod1p response to boric acid systems by generating oxidative stress (De Seta et al, 2009;Esim et al, 2012). However, the participation of reactive oxygen defence mechanisms in preventing BA-induced damage appears limited to Sod1p.…”

“…Siddiqui et al (2013) observed that the application together B and Ca were more effective than isolated in the improvement of plant growth. The H 2 O 2 were increased in the leaves and roots, and these results are related to oxidative stress caused by the B and Ca excess in solution (Esim et al, 2012;Blasco et al, 2014.). Siddiqui et al (2013) studying Raphanus sativus submitted the interaction of B and Ca toxic observed similar behavior to this study.…”

Boron (B) and Calcium (Ca) unbalance in plants during early stages can generate oxidative stress and consequently to interfere negatively on growth and quality of seedlings. This study aims to evaluate the gas exchange and measure the biochemical responses, responding how high concentrations of B and Ca can affect the growth and quality of young Schizolobium parahyba plants. The experimental design used was completely randomised with four treatments [1 -25 µM B + 5 mM Ca (control); 2 -25 µM B + 50 mM Ca (Ca high); 3-250 µM B + 5 mM Ca (B high) and 4 -250 µM B + 50 mM Ca (B and Ca high)]. Negative impacts on gas exchange, photosynthetic pigments and total glutathione were obtained, besides increases in hydrogen peroxide and electrolyte leakage were verified in plants treated with B and Ca high, indicating oxidative stress. Thus, application 250 µM B combined with 50 mM Ca promoted disorders in plant metabolism, decreasing the growth and quality of young Schizolobium parahyba plants.
