AbstractDue to the frequent occurrence of extreme weather and severe environmental pollution, food security human survival are at risk. Silicon, a key element in plant nutrition remediation, has variety applications combatting various forms abiotic biotic stress fostering healthy plants soils. To establish silicon-based defense barrier for plants, we firstly summarized grouped mechanisms silicon functioning plants: 1) molecular regulation overall strengthening, 2) physical apoplastic obstruction, 3) energy conservation. Additionally, types materials as soil remediation fertilizers were discussed. Then, challenges build up such analyzed terms absorption transportation, deposition aggregation, perception regulation. An "external + internal" strategy was proposed accelerate establishment enhance plants' resistance including high temperatures, drought, ultraviolet radiation, salt, heavy metals, nutrient deficiencies, new pollutants, stress. Finally, this paper emphasized contribution Soil-Plant-Atmosphere system that eventually benefit health. This highlights current understanding future perspectives silicon-related research system, providing reference application agricultural fields.Keywords: pollutionplant healthSiliconsoil healthstress resistanceHandling Editors: Dan Tsang Lena Q.

Hollow Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles as a New Nanoscale Resistance Inducer for Fusarium Wilt Control: Size Effects and Mechanism of Action

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 25(8), P. 4514 - 4514

Published: April 20, 2024

In agriculture, soil-borne fungal pathogens, especially Fusarium oxysporum strains, are posing a serious threat to efforts achieve global food security. the search for safer agrochemicals, silica nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) have recently been proposed as new tool alleviate pathogen damage including wilt. Hollow mesoporous (HMSNs), unique class of SiO2NPs, widely accepted desirable carriers pesticides. However, their roles in enhancing disease resistance plants and specific mechanism remain unknown. this study, three sizes HMSNs (19, 96, 406 nm HMSNs-19, HMSNs-96, HMSNs-406, respectively) were synthesized characterized determine effects on seed germination, seedling growth, f. sp. phaseoli (FOP) suppression. The exhibited no side cowpea germination growth at concentrations ranging from 100 1500 mg/L. inhibitory FOP mycelial very weak, showing inhibition ratios less than 20% even 2000 Foliar application HMSNs, however, was demonstrated reduce severity roots size- concentration-dependent manner. low concentration mg/L, well HMSNs-19 high 1000 observed little effect alleviating incidence. HMSNs-406 most effective an up 40.00% decline with significant growth-promoting plants. Moreover, foliar (1000 mg/L) increased salicylic acid (SA) content by 4.3-fold, expression levels SA marker genes PR-1 (by 1.97-fold) PR-5 9.38-fold), its receptor gene NPR-1 1.62-fold), compared infected control Meanwhile, another resistance-related PAL also upregulated 8.54-fold. Three defense-responsive enzymes POD, PAL, PPO involved HMSNs-enhanced roots, varying degrees reduction activity. These results provide substantial evidence that exert wilt suppression activating SA-dependent SAR (systemic acquired resistance) responses rather directly suppressing growth. Overall, first time, our indicate role potent inducer serve low-cost, highly efficient, safe sustainable alternative plant protection.
