Abstract Background Abiotic stresses, like drought, are the major cause of shrinking plant, growth crop yields and quality. Nanotechnology has provided a significant improvement in increasing plant yield crops under stress conditions. This work assessed potential silicon for mitigating negative effects drought against wheat. In completely randomized design with three replicates, wheat seedlings grown watering levels (100, 60 40% water holding capacity) were treated by dioxide (SiO 2 ) as normal or bulk form (Si) SiO nanoparticles (SiNPs) concentrations 100 200 mg L −1 . SiNPs was extracted from rice husk. Results Si treatments shown to improve plants increase shoots root weight, relative content, photosynthetic pigments, proline either at decreased lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde reduced. Also, nano-silicon increased free amino acids, antioxidant enzymes while soluble sugars. Cytotoxicity assay proved safety usage. Conclusions conclusion, present study documented significance husk-extracted rate improving tolerance deficit.

Climate changes threat global food security and production. Soil salinization is one of the major issues changing climate, causing adverse impacts on agricultural crops. Germination seedlings establishment are damaged under these conditions, so seeds must be safeguard before planting. Here, we use recycled organic tree waste combined with cold (low-pressure) plasma treatment as grain coating to improve ability wheat seed cultivars (Misr-1 Gemmeza-11) survive, germinate produce healthy seedlings. The were coated biofilms lignin hash carbon form a protective extracellular polymeric matrix then exposed them low-pressure for different periods time. effectiveness was evaluated by characterizing physical surface properties using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, wettability testing. We also biological physiological plants they produced studying germination seedling vigor, well fitness parameters derived from seeds. analysis revealed optimal exposure time enhance growth. Taken together, our study suggests that combining may represent viable strategy improving crop performance, hence encouraging cultivation in stressed ecosystems.

Abstract Salinization, as a serious climate change phenomenon, continues to cause critical issues for soils and crops. Abundance of genetic diversity plants could contribute in solving the impacts salinity. However, relations between physiological molecular traits plant species need deep investigation interpretation. Pot experiments were conducted greenhouse investigate difference behavior two amaranth when they beforehand subjected salinity-stress conditions, specifically on some specific characteristics. After 45 days from transplanting, salt stress was induced using 150 mM sodium chloride solution. Treatments arranged randomized complete block design three replications. 0, 2, 6, 10, 24 h, samples collected evaluate data well gene expression. The immediately frozen liquid nitrogen stored -80⁰ C ultralow temperature refrigerators. Findings revealed that red ( Amaranthus cruentus ) more tolerant saline than green hypochondriacus ). Result malondialdehyde (MDA) content increased after 2 h then decreased (after 6 10 h) before rising again h. In amaranth, MDA initially increasing later decreasing zigzag pattern ending an increase There initial steep rise proline which continued still moderately till it stopped. Results also showed gave higher value superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity compared with all tested salinity exposure times. expression four genes assessed through quantitative PCR indicated efficiency SOS1, HKT1, NHX1, DGR2 genes, encode adaptation-related proteins under stress. summary, current work demonstrated be efficient resource improving salt-tolerant genotypes belonging genus.
