Opis:
Entandrophragma angolense is a tropical tree species with a very slow growth rate. To overcome this barrier, a study on the effect of organic amendment on the growth rate of Entandrophragma angolense seedlings was conducted in the nursery section of the Department of Forestry and Wildlife, University of Benin, Benin City, Nigeria. Herein, 2kg polythene pots, each containing top soil were all amended with Poultry droppings (PRD), Cow dung (CWD) and Compost (CPT) at a ratio of 2:1, while top soil alone served as the control. Employing a completely randomized design (CRD), growth variables were recorded on a fortnight basis. The seedlings were assessed for height, number of leaves and collar diameter for a total period of 20 weeks. Fresh weights and total dry weights of the seedlings were also determined at the end of the experiment. No significant difference (p>0.05) was observed in the effect of organic amendments on the plant mean height and number of leaves throughout the study period, however, a significant difference was observed in collar diameter at 2 weeks after treatment and 12 weeks after treatment alone. Organic amendment was found to influence general biomass production in the specie, although there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in stem biomass production. Conclusively, organic amendment can be said not to have significantly (p>0.05) affected the growth of E. angolense, while this cannot be said of the biomass production, albeit at a low level of significance.

Opis:
Pulses play an important role in Indian agriculture. Among the pulses, soybean (Glycine max. L) occupies a unique place by becoming the largest source of vegetable oil and protein. It is widely cultivated in India and occupy 5th largest production of soybean in the world. Industrialization and population explosion has caused a serious problem of pollution in the environment in all possible ways. As a result, most of the water resources are getting polluted by receiving large quantity of sewages and industrial wastewaters with heavy metals. In some places, these polluted water is being used for irrigation due to scarcity for good water. The continuous use of these wastewater containing heavy metals degraded the soil quality and reduced the growth and yield performance of agricultural crops. Aresenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, uranium, vanadium and zinc are the some of the important heavy metals found in our environment. Among the heavy metals, chromium merits a special reference for its toxic potential. It is released from the industries such as electroplating, leather tanning, textile printing and metal finishing. It is one of the main constitutions of tannery effluent. Presence of excess amount of chromium in the wastewater affect the plant growth and development when it is used for irrigation. So, Laboratory study was carried to investigate the irrigational impact of various concentrations of Cr (5, 10, 25, 50 100, 200 and 300 µg/l) on changes in morphological (germination percentage, root length, shoot length, fresh weight and dry weight), photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenoid) biomolecules (aminoacid, protein, sugar, proline) and antioxidant enzymatic activities (catalase, peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and super oxide dismutase) were estimated. The accumulation of chromium in soybean seedlings were estimated and they were correlated with the above mentioned parameters.

Opis:
This study is aimed towards investigating the temporal variation in species composition, diversity and regeneration status of Chilimo dry Afromontane forest in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia. A total of 35 permanent sample plots of 20 m × 20 m (400 m2) each were established in the natural forest, laid out on transects of altitudinal gradients, with a distance of 100m between plots. The plots were measured twice in 2012 and 2017. Three subplots, 5m × 5m, and 1 m2 were laid out inside the main plots for sapling, shrub and seedling data collection. Species composition, diversity, important value index (IVI) and regeneration data were analyzed using appropriate formulas. Data analysis was made using R - studio software. A total of 31 trees and shrubs representing 25 families were recorded, 20 (64.52 %) were trees and 11 (35.48 %) were shrubs. Thereof, 28, 23 and 26 species under highest, middle and lowest altitudinal gradient were recorded. The most dominant tree species were: Juniperus procera, Podocarpus falcatus, Olea europea, Scolopia theifolia and Allophyllus abyssinicus. The species composition, diversity, abundance, dominance and important value index significantly varied among species, altitudinal gradient and slope. The diameter distribution was an inverted J - shaped distribution pattern. The highest species richness and diversity index were found under middle altitudinal gradient, while the lowest species richness and diversity index were found under the highest altitudinal gradient. The mean annual volume increment ranged from 4.223 to 0.228 m3 ha-1 yr-1, while the basal area increment varied from 0.85 to 0.020 m2 ha-1 yr-1. Among the sampled species, ten species had fair, 5 poor and 14 species had no regeneration. In conclusion, the Chilimo dry Afromontane forest is suffering from low recruitment and regeneration. Thus, appropriate forest management options should be implemented.
