Evaluation of Jatropha curcas L. leaves mulching on wheat growth and biochemical attributes under water stress

Original language description

Organic mulches are widely used in crop production systems. Due to their benefts in improving soil fertility, retention of soil moisture and weed control. Field experiments were conducted during wheat growing seasons of 2018–2019 and 2019–2020 to evaluate the efects of Jatropha leaves mulch on the growth of wheat varieties ‘Wadan-17’ (rainfed) and ‘Pirsabaq-2013’ (irrigated) under well irrigated and water stress conditions (non-irrigated maintaining 40% soil feld capacity). Jatropha mulch was applied to the soil surface at 0, 1, 3 and 5 Mg ha−1 before sowing grains in the feld. Under conditions of water stress, Jatropha mulch signifcantly maintained the soil moisture content necessary for normal plant growth. We noted a decrease in plant height, shoot and root fresh/dry weight, leaf area, leaf relative water content (LRWC), chlorophyll, and carotenoid content due to water stress. However, water stress caused an increase in leaf and root phenolics content, leaf soluble sugars and electrolytes leakage. We observed that Jatropha mulch maintained LRWC, plant height, shoot and root fresh/dry weight, leaf area and chlorophyll content under water stress. Moreover, water stress adverse efects on leaf soluble sugar content and electrolyte leakage were reversed to normal by Jatropha mulch. Therefore, it may be concluded that Jatropha leaves mulch will minimize water stress adverse efects on wheat by maintaining soil moisture and plant water status.
