Assessing The Influence of Phosphorus and Moisture Stress Dynamics on Mungbean: A Scientific Exploration
Main Article Content
Abstract
Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) stands as an essential leguminous crop globally, particularly in regions like India, owing to its nutritional significance and wider adaptability. This review into the intricate dynamics among phosphorus (P) levels, an important nutrient for plant growth, and moisture stress, a common challenge in agriculture, on mungbean’s morphological and biochemical aspects. Essential for plant growth, profoundly impacts mungbean’s morphological characteristics and biochemical homes. Adequate phosphorus supply stimulates lateral root proliferation and elongation, improving root exploration for progressed nutrient and water uptake, thereby improving the plant’s capability to face up to environmental stresses and nutrient deficiencies. Under drought conditions, mungbean plants exhibit poor root growth, resulting in reduced nutrient and water use-efficiency. Moreover, moisture stress inhibits shoot growth and architectural development, resulting in stunted growth, reduced internode elongation, and diminished leaf expansion, ultimately leading to decreased light interception and photosynthetic activity. Additionally, the interaction between phosphorus levels and moisture stress significantly influences mungbean’s responses, dictating adaptive strategies to varying environmental conditions. Conversely, phosphorus-enriched plants demonstrate enhanced resilience to moisture stress, maintaining root elongation and shoot development, even under water-limited conditions. This assessment underscores the significance of comprehensive nutrient management techniques in mitigating the detrimental influences of environmental fluctuations on mungbean cultivation, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary research and innovative answers to decorate crop productiveness and sustainability in the face of global environmental challenges.
