Effect of nano potassium fertilizer on some parchment pumpkin(Cucurbita pepo) morphological and physiological characteristics under drought conditions
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
The use of nano fertilizers release nutrients for precise control can be an effective step towards achieving sustainable agriculture and compatible with the environment.To evaluate the morphological and physiological characteristics of medicinal plant pumpkin seeds drought and nanopotassium fertilizer factorial experiment with two factors: drought and nano-potassium fertilizer in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Operating fertilizer (0, 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5 in thousand) and drought (1, 3 and 6 days) were applied. The results showed the highest stem diameter among different fertilizer treatments Nanoptasym of manure treatment was 2.5 per thousand, with an average of 6.96 mm Maximum number of branches and number of leaves foliar application of 2.5 per thousand ml nano potassium was observed. In the interaction drought and fertilizer treatment is also highest stomatal conductance of daily watering (once a day) and treated with 2.5 per thousand milliliters Spraying was obtained.
