Effect of Extract of Fast Growing Species Trifolium alexandrium L. on Germination, Photosynthetic Pigments and Nutrient Uptake of Prosopis cineraria (L.) Druce
In a completely randomized design, the effect of the extract from <em>Trifolium alexandrium </em>(0, 0.2 and 0.4%) on the germination, some morphological characteristics, photosynthetic pigments, and nutrients uptake of <em>Prosopis cineraria </em>was evaluated. The highest germination rate and percentage (9.16 and 21%, respectively) were recorded in the 0.2% treatment. The maximum and minimum lengths of radicle (6.58 and 3.16 cm) and pedicel (6.56 and 14.23 cm), and dry weight were recorded in the control and 0.4% treatments, respectively. The highest level of chlorophyll a (16.80 mg g<sup>-1</sup> fresh weight) was found in the control. The highest and lowest chlorophyll b (9.65 and 7.96 mg g<sup>-1</sup> fresh weight) were measured in the 0.2%and control, respectively. The extract adversely affected the nutrient uptake by <em>P. cineraria</em>, the minimum and maximum of which were recorded at the 0.4%and control treatments, respectively. In general, although the extract of <em>T. alexandrium </em>increased the <em>P. cineraria </em>germination in the 0.2% treatment, the increased concentrations led to its reduced growth and nutrient uptake. Therefore, the simultaneous cultivation of these two species in the dry lands is not recommended.
