Abstract

India rank second in Horticulture produce in the world after china. Produces large varieties of fruit crops like mango, banana, citrus, guava, grapes papaya, sapota, and pineapple. Micronutrients are essentially as important as macronutrients to have better growth, yield and quality in plants. The elements essential for plants are C, H, O, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Cu, B, Mn, Mo, Zn, Cl. Out of these 16 elements, 9 essential elements have been classified as “macronutrients” as these are required in relatively large amount by the plants. These elements include C, H, O, N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S. The necessity of micronutrients (iron, copper, zinc, boron, manganese, magnesium and molybdenum) is only in traces, which is partly met from the soil or through chemical fertilizer or through other sources. Proper plant nutrition is essential for successful production of fruit crops. Micronutrients are involved in all metabolic and cellular functions. Plants differ in their need for micronutrients. In this review, we focus on the major functions of mineral micronutrients in banana, mango and pomegranate fruit production.

Physiochemical properties, fruit pathology and shelf life of bananas under pre-harvest bunch spray, post-harvest hand dipping and storage period

Pre-harvest bunch spray with Tracel and post-harvest hand dipping in solutions significantly improve banana shelf life, reducing post-harvest losses and boosting the economy of farmers and traders.

Physicochemical and Nutrient Release Characteristics of a Thermochemical Organic Fertilizer Produced from Degradable Solid Waste and Its Effect on Productivity of Banana

Thermochemical organic fertilizer (TOF) produced from biowaste improves banana plant height, number of leaves, pseudostem girth, bunch yield, and dry matter production compared to farmyard manure-based treatments.

Strategies for setting and development of fruit of the ‘Keitt’ mango tree cultivated in the semiarid

Using 10 mg L-1 AG3 + 2,4-D + Benzyladenine in full flowering of the 'Keitt' mango tree increases fruit setting and production, with adjusted potassium fertilization and 10 mg L-1 AG3 application promoting greater fruit mass and volume.

Accumulation and distribution of micronutrients in banana cv. Williams (Musa AAA Simmonds) with different doses of nitrogen

Higher nitrogen doses significantly increase micronutrient accumulation in banana plants, with Fe being the major nutrient extracted by the corm, pseudostem, and bunch, and Mn being the major nutrient in leaves.

Valuing each patch of land: utilizing plant-microbe interactions for the betterment of agriculture

Plant-microbe interactions can improve agricultural productivity and soil health by enhancing soil nutritional profile and providing growth promoting traits and tolerance.
