...teristics like life form spectra indicated that Therophytes (53.33%) were the most dominating life form. Leaf size spectra showed that the most abundant leaf size was Microphyll (50%). This study not only gives information about the flora of motorway but can provide a baseline for future studies and plantation of this area. It is suggested that plantation of invasive species should be discouraged which might become problemat...

It was concluded from the results that being highly porous in structure, high in carbon content and containing all the identified functional groups, SS biochar was found the best to be used as soil amendment that could have positive effect on improving the soil health. Moreover, the animal manure is recommended to be used as manure in soil rather than conver...
