This study investigated the use of an intelligent irrigation system for greenhouse cucumber cultivation, aiming to manage water consumption efficiently. During the initial phase, irrigation was tested at four levels: 80%, 90%, and 100% of Field Capacity (FC), and Conventional Flood Irrigation (CFI). Data on environmental conditions and water usage...

Bell pepper fruits (Capsicum annuum L.) are prone to both physiological and pathological deterioration following harvest, primarily due to their high metabolic activity and water content. The storage of bell peppers presents several challenges, including weight loss, softening, alterations in fruit metabolites and color, increased decay, and a decl...

Implementing intelligent irrigation and adjusting the irrigation system is essential in today’s agricultural system to control the amount of water required for the plant. This study focuses on data obtained from sensors measuring (soil temperature and humidity, temperature and humidity of ambient and light) and image processing of plant leaves. To...

Melatonin is a growth regulator that improves the growth and chlorophyll (chl) content in plants. This study aims to investigate the effect of melatonin pretreatment on chl synthesis and fluorescence parameters in Malva parviflora exposed to cadmium (Cd). The 42-day-old plants were transferred to nutrient solutions containing 50 μM melatonin. After...

In this study, leaf chlorophyll fluorescence and mineral compositions was used to compare pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) cultivars response to salt stress. Twentysix pepper cultivars were exposed to salt stress (100 mM NaCl) during two weeks. Thereaft er, chlorophyll fluorescence compoents, stress tolerance index (STI), sodium, potassium and calcium c...
