Silicon in the form of nanosilica mitigates P toxicity in scarlet eggplant

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 13(1)

Published: June 6, 2023

Abstract Intensive fertilization of vegetables can promote phosphorus (P) toxicity. However, it be reversed using silicon (Si), although there is a lack research clarifying its mechanisms action. This aims to study the damage caused by P toxicity scarlet eggplant plants and whether Si mitigate this We evaluated nutritional physiological aspects plants. Treatments were arranged in 2 × factorial design two levels adequate (2 mmol L −1 P) toxic/excess (8 13 combined with absence or presence nanosilica Si) nutrient solution. There six replications. The excess solution growth due losses oxidative stress. found that mitigated supplying Si, which decreases uptake 13%, improves C:N homeostasis, increases iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) use efficiency 21%, 10%, 12%, respectively. At same time, stress electrolyte leakage 18% antioxidant compounds (phenols ascorbic acid 13% 50%, respectively), photosynthetic plant 12% (by increasing 23% 25% shoot root dry mass, respectively). These findings allow us explain different used reverse

Silicon nanoparticles vs trace elements toxicity: Modus operandi and its omics bases

Frontiers in Plant Science, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 15

Published: April 3, 2024

Phytotoxicity of trace elements (commonly misunderstood as ‘heavy metals’) includes impairment functional groups enzymes, photo-assembly, redox homeostasis, and nutrient status in higher plants. Silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) can ameliorate element toxicity. We discuss SiNPs response against several essential (such Cu, Ni, Mn, Mo, Zn) non-essential (including Cd, Pb, Hg, Al, Cr, Sb, Se, As) elements. hinder root uptake transport the first line defence. charge plant antioxidant defence elements-induced oxidative stress. The enrolment gene expressions was also noticed on many occasions. These genes are associated with anatomical physiological phenomena, such cell wall composition, photosynthesis, metal transport. On this note, we dedicate later sections review to support an enhanced understanding influence metabolomic, proteomic, genomic profile plants under

Unravelling the effects of nano SiO2, nano TiO2 and their nanocomposites on Zea mays L. growth and soil health

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: June 18, 2024

Abstract Amidst the challenges posed by climate change, exploring advanced technologies like nanotechnology is crucial for enhancing agricultural productivity and food security. Consequently, this study investigated impact of nano SiO 2 (nSiO ), TiO (nTiO ) /TiO nanocomposites (NCs) on 30-day-old Zea mays L. plants soil health at concentrations 100 200 ppm. Results showed that nSiO nTiO ppm NCs both concentrations, positively influenced plant growth, with best stimulation observed NCs. Improved growth was associated higher chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, transpiration stomatal conductance, rhizospheric N-fixing phosphate solubilizing bacterial population nutrient uptake. Additionally, treated exhibited increased cellulose starch levels. Malondialdehyde (MDA) content lower or similar to control, except -treated shoots. Antioxidant enzyme activities fluctuated, indicating physiological adjustments. Overall, as well improved fertility Z. suggesting potential benefits sustainable agriculture. The findings lay foundation more comprehensive investigations into long-term fate nanomaterials in their intricate molecular-level interactions .
