Ensuring global food security and achieving sustainable agricultural productivity remains one of the foremost challenges contemporary era. The increasing impacts climate change environmental stressors like drought, salinity, heavy metal (HM) toxicity threaten crop worldwide. Addressing these demands development innovative technologies that can increase production, reduce impacts, bolster resilience agroecosystems against variation. Nanotechnology, particularly application nanoparticles (NPs), represents an approach to strengthen enhance sustainability agriculture. NPs have special physicochemical properties, including a high surface-area-to-volume ratio ability penetrate plant tissues, which enhances nutrient uptake, stress resistance, photosynthetic efficiency. This review paper explores how abiotic impact crops role in bolstering resistance challenges. main emphasis is on potential boost tolerance by triggering defense mechanisms, improving growth under stress, yield. demonstrated addressing key challenges, such as leaching, declining soil fertility, reduced yield due poor water management. However, applying must consider regulatory concerns, accumulation, non-target organisms, consumer perceptions NP-enhanced products. To mitigate land should be integrated with precision agriculture technologies, allowing targeted nano-fertilizers nano-pesticides. Although further research necessary assess their advantages address present promising cost-effective for enhancing future.

Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is a commercially important and nutritionally rich vegetable crop in the Solanaceae family. Alkaline stress (AS) can disrupt growth, metabolism, and, particularly, nutritional quality. This study aims to evaluate role of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeNP) mitigating AS enhancing plant growth metabolic functions by conducting experiments under controlled greenhouse conditions with four main treatments: (irrigating plants alkaline salts mixture solution); FeNP (foliar application Fe3O4 at 100 mg L−¹); + (integrated treatment FeNP); CK (control). The results clearly demonstrated that negatively affects biomass, photosynthetic attributes, membrane integrity, carbohydrate balance antioxidant system. Additionally, key phenolic flavonoid compounds decreased AS, indicating detrimental effect on plant's secondary metabolites. In contrast, not only improved attributes but also enhanced integrity restored balance. restoration was driven accumulation sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose) starch, along metabolism enzymes—sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), sucrose (SuSy), neutral invertase (NI), vacuolar (VI)—and their associated gene expression. correlation analysis further revealed tight regulation both enzymatic transcript levels all tissue types, except for SPS roots. Furthermore, resulted increased phenolics (dihydrocapsaicin, capsaicin, p-coumaric acid, sinapic p-OH benzoic benzaldehyde, ferulic acid) (dihydroquercetin, naringenin, kaempferol, dihydrokaempferol, quercetin) compared treatment, thus suggesting these metabolites likely contribute stabilization cellular structures membranes, ultimately supporting physiological resilience stress. conclusion, demonstrate potential bell against improving

Abstract The quest for sustainable agricultural practices has led to a surge in research focused on innovative wastewater treatment methods. This review explores the emerging biological approaches designed address challenges of eco-friendly and subsequent reuse. investigation centers around three novel techniques: constructed wetlands, algae-based systems, microbial fuel cells. Constructed wetlands (CWs) mimic natural processes treat wastewater, providing habitat various plant species that collaboratively remove contaminants. Algae-based systems(ABs) harness photosynthetic prowess algae absorb nutrients pollutants, producing biomass can be repurposed. Meanwhile, cells (MFCs) employ microorganisms break down organic matter while generating electricity as valuable byproduct. aims provide insights into potential these methods revolutionize management agriculture. By mitigating environmental impact, conserving water resources, yielding reusable outputs, techniques will offer pathway towards addressing pressing enhancing overall ecological balance.

The salinity and alkalinity of soils are two fundamental factors that limit plant growth productivity. For reason, a field study conducted at Sakha Agric. Res. Station in Egypt during the 2022–2023 winter season aimed to assess impact gypsum (G), compost (C), zinc foliar application images, traditional (Z1 as ZnSO4) nanoform (Z2 N-ZnO), on alleviating saline–sodic conditions soil its wheat results showed combination gypsum, compost, N-ZnO spray (G + C Z2) decreased electrical conductivity (EC), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), exchangeable percentage (ESP) by 14.81%, 40.60%, 35.10%, respectively. Additionally, compared control, G Z2 treatment improved nutrient content uptake well superior biomass parameters, such highest grain yield (7.07 Mg ha−1), height (98.0 cm), 1000-grain weight (57.03 g), straw (9.93 ha−1). Interestingly, was more effective than ZnSO4 promoting Principal component analysis highlighted negative correlation between increased EC SAR, whereas organic matter (OM), infiltration rate (IR), were found be positively correlated. Furthermore, employing k-nearest neighbors technique, it predicted would rise 7.25 t ha−1 under certain (5.54 dS m−1), ESP (10.02%), OM (1.41%), bulk density (1.30 g cm−3), (1.15 cm h−1), SAR (7.80%).
