Reports of nutrients involved in mitigating heat stress in plant.
Types of nutrients | Crops | Effect | References |
---|---|---|---|
Magnesium | maize and wheat | Application of Magnesium during heat stress of wheat and maize plants can nullify the damage effect by decreasing oxidative cellular damage caused by ROS. | Mengutay et al., 2013 |
Nitrogen | Spinach | It was observed in spinach both the photosynthetic activity and the light collection ability of the plant is reduced due to low nitrogen content. | Verhoeven et al., 1997. |
Bean | nitrate-grown bean plants had higher tolerance to photodamage than ammonium-grown ones. | Zhu et al., 2000 | |
Tomato | plant with ammonium application show better tolerance to heat stress than nitrate-applied plants due to the assembly of proline and quaternary ammonium compounds in tomato plant | Rivero et al., 2004 | |
K+Zn+B | Cotton | In cotton increased ability of TNBPP, NSBPP, TSP, RWC, fiber length, fiber strength and fiber fineness were observed due to foliar application of K and Zn followed by B. | Sarwar et al., 2022 |
Mg | Bean | The antioxidant activities and antioxidant molecules are increased in bean due to the application of Mg | Cakmak and Marschner, 1992 |
Maize | The antioxidant activities and antioxidant molecules are increased in maize due to the application of Mg | Tewari et al., 2004 | |
Pepper | The antioxidant activities and antioxidant molecules are increased in peach due to the application of Mg | Anza et al., 2005 | |
Mulberry | The antioxidant activities and antioxidant molecules are increased in mulberry due to the application of Mg | Tewari et al., 2006 |
