        The purpose of this study was to determine the interaction of plasma radiation on the growth rate and the number of leaves in several species of mangrove. The species of mangrove, which included Rhizophora stylosa, Rhizophora mucronata, Creriops tagal, and Bruguera sp. The method used was a factorial complete randomized design with 12 treatments and 3 replications. The first factor was the duration of plasma radiation, with values of 0 minutes, 30 minutes and 60 minutes. The second factor was the species of mangrove, which included Rhizopora stylosa, Rhizopora mucronata, Creriops tagal, and Bruguera sp. The parameters observed were growth rate and the number of leaves. The results showed that plasma radiation was able to increase the growth rate in R. mucronata species but did not affect the number of leaves. Plasma radiation for 60 minutes met the nitrogen requirements of the plants. This study concluded that corona incandescent plasma radiation can increase the mangrove growth rate, especially in R. mucronata species. پرونده مقاله

        Water scarcity is a serious problem affecting young plants' growth, development, and establishment. Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) have revealed an excellent capacity to absorb and retain water, increase soil moisture, and improve the growth of plants under water shortage. A greenhouse study was performed with three irrigation regimes (50%, 75%, and 100 % FC) and three levels of SAP-A200 (0, 1, and 2 g kg-1 soil) in a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with four replications. The results showed that soil water deficit affected physiological and biochemical characteristics of young myrtle plants. Photosynthetic parameters, total chlorophyll, and relative water content (RWC) decreased by increasing water-deficit stress. In contrast, leaf electrolyte leakage (EL), malondialdehyde (MDA), total soluble sugars (TSSs), and starch, increased. However, the application of minimal amounts of SAP (1 and 2 g kg-1 soil) improved most of these characteristics in both well-watered and water-deficit conditions, it appears that a higher amount of SAP is needed in moderate and severe water stress conditions. Therefore, SAP-A200 can be utilized as an efficient and economical method for rapidly establishing woody young plants in low-water areas. پرونده مقاله
