• Role of Macronutrients in Plant Growth and Acclimation: Recent Advances and Future Prospective (2014, background): “It is linked to many physiological processes which help in improving photosynthesis, enzyme activation, water relations, assimilates, transportation, as well as plant growth and development (Pettigrew 2008; Lidon and Cebola 2012; Zlatev and Lidon 2012).”
• Potassium solubilizing rhizobacteria (KSR): Isolation, identification, and K-release dynamics from waste mica (2015, neutral): “quality crops and provides resistance to plant diseases (Epstein and Bloom, 2005; Pettigrew, 2008; Maqsood et al., 2013).”
• Growth, physiology, and biochemical activities of plant responses with foliar potassium application under drought stress – a review (2018, background): “Functioning of stomata in photosynthesis and transpiration such as maintenance of plant turgor, photophosphorylation, and activation of enzyme and transportation of photo-assimilates is controlled by K (Pettigrew 2008).”
• Effects of plant density and nitrogen and potassium fertilization on cotton yield and uptake of major nutrients in two fields with varying fertility (2010, background): “As an enzyme activator, potassium has been implicated in over 60 enzymatic reactions, which are involved in many processes in the plant such as photosynthesis, respiration, carbohydratemetabolism, translocation andprotein synthesis (Dong et al., 2004; Pettigrew, 2008).”
• FOLIAR APPLICATION OF POTASSIUM UNDER WATER DEFICIT CONDITIONS IMPROVED THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF WHEAT ( TRITICUM AESTIVUM L.) (2012, background): “Average wheat yield increased in K fertilized plots (Pettigrew, 2008).”
• Potassium Fertilization on Maize under Different Production Practices in the North China Plain (2011, background): “Potassium is one of the essential nutrient elements for plants; it is involved in the processes of osmoregulation and cell extension, stomatal movement, activation of enzymes, protein synthesis, photosynthesis, phloem loading, and transport and uptake (Marschner, 1995; Pettigrew, 2008).”
• Potassium: A Vital Regulator of Plant Responses and Tolerance to Abiotic Stresses (2018, background): “The leaf number and size reduction later hasten the diminished photosynthetic rate per unit leaf area and thus account for an overall reduction in the amount of photosynthetic assimilates available for growth [56].”
• The Physiology of Potassium in Crop Production (2014, background): “In addition, the reduced translocation of carbon assimilates out of the chloroplast (Ashley and Goodson, 1972; Mengel and Haeder, 1977; Mengel and Viro, 1974) could lead to feedback inhibition in the nonstomatal component of the photosynthetic process (Pettigrew, 2008; Cakmak, 2005).”
