Plant Species | Method | Effect | Reference |
---|---|---|---|
Solanum melomgena L. Vicia faba L. Solanum lycopersicon L. |
MTW | Neutralizing soil pH value The yield gain per water unit was 2.47% on average for the three crops |
[57] |
Lens culinaris Medik | 110 mT MW | Significantly enhanced the activity of APX and decreased the activity of SOD | [67] |
Allium cepa L. | MTW (120–150 mT) |
Increased the amount of phosphorus in leaves Lowered soil alkalinity |
[59] |
Citrus sinensis [L.] Osbeck | MTW | Seeds with low vigor can be invigorated 13.3% increase in germination |
[24] |
Triticum aestivum L. | MTW MF-treated seeds |
Decreased the downward mobility of the mineral compounds | [10] |
Apium graveolens L. Pisum sativum L. |
MTW (136 mT) | MTW mitigated the adverse effects of drought in the Moringa species by improving the Na+/K+ ratio | [23] |
Moringa oleifera Lam. M. peregrina (Forssk. Fiori) |
MTW (30 mT) | Increased efficiency of salty water and enhanced growth criteria | [63] |
Cynara scolymus L. | MTW (300 mT) | Increased photosynthetic pigments significantly Increased nutrient uptake efficiency (N, P, K, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu) |
[65] |
Fragaria × ananassa Solanum lycopersicum Lam. |
MTW | Increased protein content (28.92%), alpha amylase (11.36%), and protease activities (14.76%) over the control | [61] |
Brassica rapa L. var. glabra Regel | MTW (211 mT) | Decreased EC and TDS by 15.60% after 300 min The soil-soluble Na+ significantly decreased from 15.53 to 8.57 mEq/L |
[68] |
Cucumis sativus L. Cucumis melo L. |
MTW (40 mT) MF (40 mT) treated seeds |
A higher nutrient uptake, reduction of toxicitym, and sodium concentration in the aerial parts Increased the amount of phosphorus in leaves, lowering soil alkalinity |
[62,69] |
