“…Altered water relations due to high salt stress significantly delay germination (Zhu et al, 2019) because extra salts are accumulated in intercellular spaces (Oi et al, 2020). Sometimes embryo may be damaged due to higher levels of Na+ /Cl-ions or exosmosis of water (Hakimi et al, 2022). In the present study, the desert ecotype of Citrullus colocynthis proved it more tolerant than the agricultural ecotype.…”

“…The minerals and heavy metals accumulation in the plant cells may lead to negative effects like ion toxicity induced mainly by salinity and drought stress (Kumar, 2020). Detaining absorbable water by seeds due to salinity and heavy metal stress can lead to reduced germination (Sukmarani et al, 2021) Decreased seed germination under salinity and heavy metal stress may be illuminated by turgor pressure limitation or the dry material storage (Khosropour et al, 2022). High levels of salinity suppress seedling growth, imposing a negative impact of NaCl on cellular membranes, and destructing cytoplasmic membranes due to ion toxicity (Shehzad et al, 2019;Shahid et al, 2020).…”

Salinity and heavy metal stresses are great hindrances to germination and the early developmentof plants. Nickel (Ni) is an indispensable micronutrient for plants at low while toxic in highconcentrations. Citrullus colocynth L. is a medicinal cucurbit weed in desert and agriculturalareas. Germination and early development of seedlings determine the future of the plant. Thecontemporary target of the study is to appraise the influence of single and combined stresses byvarying concentrations of NaCl and NiCl 2 on germination and seedlings of C. colocynth.Germination percentage, radicle length, plumule length, fresh weight and dry weight of seedlingsof C. colocynth with three levels of salt (100mM, 200mM and 400mMNaCl), three levels ofheavy metal (50, 100, 200uMNiCl 2 ) and Nine combined levels(100mMNaCl +50uM NiCl 2 ),(200mMNaCl +50 uMNiCl 2 ) (400mMNaCl +50uM NiCl 2 ) (100mMNaCl +100uMNiCl 2 )(200mM NaCl +100uM NiCl 2 ) (400mMNaCl +100uMNiCl 2 ) (100mMNaCl +200uMNiCl 2 )(200mMNaCl +200 uMNiCl 2 ) (400mMNaCl +200uMNiCl 2 ) were studied. This experiment wasconceded out in a completely randomized design with four replications. The responses showedan adverse trend with increasing stress levels. Germination and seedling growth factors declinedunder high-stress levels of salt (400mM NaCl), high HM (200 uM NiCl 2 ), and combined highsalt or high HM but positively improved on lower salt(100mMNaCl), lower HM (50uMNiCl 2 )and combined lower salt with lower HM (100mMNaCl+50uMNiCl 2 ).

Salinity and heavy metal stresses are a great hindrance to the germination and development of plants. Nickel (Ni) is an indispensable micronutrient for plants at low concentrations. However, the proficiency depends upon the plant types. Citrullus colocynth is a medicinal cucurbit weed. The contemporary target of the study is to appraise the influence of combined stresses by varying concentrations of sodium chloride and nickel chloride on germination, morphology, biochemical ions, and physiology of C. colocynth. Germination percentage, root length, shoot length, fresh weight, dry weight, number of leaves, Na+, K+, Ca++, Cl-, Ni+, chlorophyll a and b, proline, SOD and CAT of C. colocynth were measured with nine combined levels (100 mM NaCl + 50 uM NiCl2), (200 mM NaCl + 50 uM NiCl2), (400 mM NaCl + 50 uM NiCl2), (100 mM NaCl + 100 uM NiCl2), (200 mM NaCl +100 uM NiCl2), (400 mM NaCl +100 uM NiCl2), (100 mM NaCl + 200 uM NiCl2), (200 mM NaCl + 200 uM NiCl2) and (400 mM NaCl +200 uM NiCl2). This experiment was conceded out in a completely randomized design with four replications. Germination percentage, root length, shoot length, fresh weight, dry weight, and the number of leaves, K+, Ca++, chlorophyll a, and b decreased by increasing stress levels while Na+, Cl-, Ni+, Proline, SOD, and CAT increased with increasing stress levels. This species has a positive morpho-physiological response under low(100mM NaCl, 50 uM NiCl2) and moderate (200mM NaCl, 100 uM NiCl2) combinations of salt and heavy metals while tolerance was observed under high-stress levels(400mM NaCl, 200 uM NiCl2). It is concluded that this species can be recommended for phytoremdiation against combined salt and heavy metal stresses.

Chemical fertilizers are widely used to meet the nutritional needs of crops and increase yields; but, due to their high cost and abuse, certain adverse effects are causing the soil to deteriorate. A decline in soil organic carbon is being addressed through the use of vermicompost and farmyard manure as organic amendments, potentially reducing chemical fertilizer usage and ensuring sustainable crop nutrient supply. A study utilizing cattle farmyard manure and vermicompost, along with reduced chemical fertilizers, demonstrated that organic inputs significantly enhance tomato growth, physiology, yield, nutritional, and defense attributes. The study found that using farmyard manure and vermicompost in combination with reduced chemical fertilizers significantly increased plant height (14.2%), number of branches (26.7%), number of leaves (18.1%), fruit weight (30.7%), yield (89.4%), ascorbate peroxidase (15.4%), carotenoids (11.6%), vitamin C (15.4%), lycopene (17.2%), superoxide dismutase (18.5%), total antioxidant activity (55.4%), total soluble solids (9.9%), and vitamin C 7.9% in tomatoes, potentially reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. In addition, soil pH was slightly neutralized and soil organic carbon and available N, P, and K status of soils significantly improved. Tomatoes with higher levels of ascorbate peroxidase, carotenoids, lycopene, superoxide dismutase activity, total antioxidant activity, total soluble solids, and vitamin C, showed higher yields.
