Aims and Scope

  • Aims and Scopes

Horticultural Plants Nutrition (HPN) provide a comprehensive, convenient data of novel and important findings exploring the effect of essential, beneficial and nonessential nutrients and their interaction with environmental factors such as light, temperature and water on plant physiology, growth and yield. The journal focuses on the horticultural plants including fruit trees, greenhouse crops, vegetables, ornamental and medicinal plants. Beneficial elements, symbiotic relationships between bacteria and fungi and crop yield, and the function of plant nutrients in tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress are some of the topics covered in addition to essential plant nutrients. HPN also provides insightful coverage of topics, such as the follows:

  • Soilless culture and horticultural plant nutrient requirements and factors impacting plant nutrition
  • Nutrition involving pot production
  • Growing media evaluation of mineral and organic material
  • Mineral nutrients metabolism of plants
  • Nutrigation (fertilizer+ irrigation)
  • Nutritional requirements of fruit trees, ornamental, vegetables, medicinal plants and herbs.
  • Plant growth promoting bacteria and elemental nutrition interactions as related to crop yield.
  • Interaction of nutrition and environmental stress such as salinity and water stress.
  • Nutrient use efficiency
  • Impact of soil and air pollutant on the nutritional status
