Theoretical and methodological research on the development of the landscape-assessment map for Asian Russia is high on the cartographic agenda of the V. B. Sochava Institute of geography SB RAS.

In Samaru, a very little or no records is found on the type of mistletoe species found parasitic on tree species. In order to document and know the species richness of mistletoe within this region, the study was aimed at determining the different species of mistletoe parasitic on Albizzia lebbeck, Citrus grandis, Khaya senegalensis, Terminalia mantaly and Terminalia catappa within Samaru, Nigeria. The study site was divided into four sampling areas based on the presence of the studied species, and the infection of the trees by mistletoes. In each of the sampling areas, the leaves of mistletoes found parasitic on each of these tree species were collected. The study indicated that from all the sampling areas, A. lebbeck was infected by six different species of mistletoe: Tapinanthus dodoneifolius, Tapinanthus globiferus, Globimetula braunii, Globimetula oreophila, Englerina lecardii and Tapinanthus belvisii; C. grandis, T. catappa and T. mantaly each had four different species found parasitic on them, and K. senegalensis had three different mistletoes species parasitic on it. A. lebbeck had the highest number of different mistletoe species found parasitic on it while K. senegalensis had the lowest. G. braunii and T. globiferus were the most common mistletoe species found parasitic on all the targeted host trees while T. dodoneifolius was found parasitic only on A. lebbeck and T. catappa and E. lecardii was found parasitic only on A. lebbeck and C. grandis respectively in the study area. In conclusion, among the studied tree species, A. lebbeck was the most vulnerable to mistletoe attack in the study area and G. braunii and T. globiferus were less host specific.","PeriodicalId":187274,"journal":{"name":"Recent Progress in Plant and Soil Research Vol. 1","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130227379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically, the principal reservoir of trace elements is the geological substrate followed by the oceans, soil, biota and atmosphere. Contamination of trace metals refers to their anthropogenic accumulation, which may or may not inflict any harm to the system or organism. Soil is the key component of natural ecosystems as environmental sustainability depends largely on a sustainable ecosystem. Unlike other environmental components, pollutants have long residence time in soil. Therefore, soil acts as a sink or a filter in which pollutants are accumulated rapidly but depleted slowly. Effective monitoring of the heavy metal builds up requires knowledge of threshold limits of toxicity of these metals in soils, plants and animals including human beings. These toxicity limits serve a dual purpose of maintaining both soil and crop productivity by planning metal loading rates in such a way that phyto-/zoo-toxic limits of the metals are not exceeded. Soil remediation is the return of soil to a condition of ecological stability together with the establishment of plant communities it supports or supported to condition prior to disturbance. Plant based bioremediation technologies have been collectively termed as phytoremediation, refers to the use of green plants and their associated micro biota for the in-situ treatment of contaminated soil. Plants have three basic strategies for growth on metal contaminated soil and on this basis, they are grouped as metal excluders, metal indicators and metal hyper accumulators. The plant growth promoting rhizobacteria increase heavy metal sequestration capacity of plants by recycling nutrients, maintaining soil structure, detoxifying chemicals and controlling pests, while decreasing toxicity of heavy metals by changing their bioavailability. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are soil microorganisms that establish mutual symbiosis with the majority of higher plants, providing a direct physical link between soil and plant roots. The fungi can accelerate the revegetation of severely degraded lands such as coal mines or waste sites containing high levels of heavy metals. Contaminated soils have classically been ameliorated using amendments such as lime, phosphate and organic matter. The addition of lime generally reduces the bioavailability of heavy metals.","PeriodicalId":187274,"journal":{"name":"Recent Progress in Plant and Soil Research Vol. 1","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130974062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In other words to enrich the zinc (an essential element) content of chickpea grain by fertilization. Because of the lack of zinc not only leads to a reduction in product yield, but also a reduction in quality. Fertilizer application is one of the important agricultural approaches to increase the quality. We hypotheized that different chickpea varieties were fertilized with zinc and compared with control in a two-year study under rainfed field conditions, as well as farmer cultivation. \u0000A randomized complete block experimental design in split plot arrangements with three replications was used. Ten chickpea varieties as main plots and zinc treatments as split plots were selected. \u0000According to obtained results there were significant differences among its varieties. For instance, in 2012 the best result was obtained from zinc application of Uzunlu-99 variety with 51.00 mg kg-1 and in 2013 the best outcome was obtained from zinc application of 64.33 mg kg-1 ILC-195.
