Termiticidal Effects and Morpho-Histological Alterations in the Subterranean Termite (Odontotermes formosanus) Induced by Biosynthesized Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, and Chitosan Nanoparticles

Nanomaterials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(11), P. 927 - 927

Published: May 24, 2024

Recently, nanoparticles have been widely used in agricultural pest control as a secure substitute for pesticides. However, the effect of on controlling subterranean termite Odontotermes formosanus (O. formosanus) has not studied yet. Consequently, this study aimed to evaluate effectiveness some nanomaterials O. formosanus. The results showed that zinc oxide (ZnONPs), titanium dioxide (TiO2NPs), and chitosan (CsNPs) biosynthesized using culture filtrate Scedosporium apiospermum (S. apiospermum) had an effective role Moreover, mortality rate after 48 h treatment with ZnONPs, TiO2NPs, CsNPs at 1000 µg/mL concentration was 100%, 97.67%, respectively. Furthermore, resulted morpho-histological variations normal structure, leading its death. X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, energy dispersive Zeta potential were characterize biosynthesis strong activity against termites. Overall, investigation suggest enormous use innovative, ecologically safe pesticides control.

Evaluating a Soil Amendment for Cadmium Mitigation and Enhanced Nutritional Quality in Faba Bean Genotypes: Implications for Food Safety

Plants, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(1), P. 141 - 141

Published: Jan. 6, 2025

Soil amendments combined with low cadmium (Cd)-accumulating crops are commonly used for remediating Cd contamination and ensuring food safety. However, the effects of soil cultivation faba beans (Vicia L.)—known their high nutritional quality accumulation—in moderately Cd-contaminated soils remain underexplored. This study investigates impact a amendment (SA) on agronomic traits, seed nutrition, accumulation in 11 bean genotypes grown acidic (1.3 mg·kg−1 Cd, pH 5.39). The SA treatment increased to 6.0 (an 11.31% increase) reduced DTPA-Cd by 37.1%. Although average yield decreased marginally 8.74%, it remained within 10% national permissible limit. Notably, concentration seeds 60% significantly mitigated Mn Al toxicity. Additionally, enhanced levels essential macronutrients (Ca, Mg, P, S) micronutrients (Mo, Cu) while lowering Phytate (Phy)/Ca, Phy/Mg, Phy/P ratios, thus improving mineral nutrient bioavailability. Among genotypes, F3, F5, F6 showed most favorable balance quality, following application. provides valuable insights into effectiveness fortification mitigation farmland.

Nanotechnology in Agriculture: Manganese Ferrite Nanoparticles as a Micronutrient Fertilizer for Wheat

Plants, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 13(10), P. 1395 - 1395

Published: May 17, 2024

Limited research has focused on nanoparticle (NP) applications’ impact edible wheat parts in a field environment. Here, we studied the nutritional quality of (Triticum aestivum L.) with experiment by spraying MnFe2O4 nanoparticles. Wheat was foliar sprayed 0, 25, 50, and 100 mg/L composite manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) NPs during 220 d growth period. Ionic controls were prepared using conventional counterparts (MnSO4·H2O FeSO4·7H2O) to compare NPs. After three consecutive applications, nanoparticles demonstrated substantial elevation grain yield harvest index, exhibiting noteworthy increase 5.0 ± 0.12 t/ha 0.46 0.001 NP dose, respectively, concomitant 14% enhancement number per spike. Fe, Mn, Ca content increased 77 2.7 mg/kg, 119 2.8 0.32 7.9 g/kg NPs, respectively. Compared ion treatment, treatments notably boosts crude protein (from 13 0.79% 15 0.58%) effectively lowers PA/Fe levels 11 0.7 9.3 0.5), thereby improving Fe bioavailability. The VSM results exhibited slight superparamagnetic behavior, whereas grains stems diamagnetic behavior. indicate that nanomaterial did not accumulate grains, suggesting its suitability as an Mn-rich fertilizer agriculture. Above all, application nanocomposites concentrations accompanied significant yield. Therefore, can positively regulate grains’

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a staple food worldwide, and agronomic biofortification with selenium (Se) zinc (Zn) simple effective way to increase nutrient intake. This study aimed evaluate the combined effects of Zn Se on wheat grain. Zinc sulfate (ZnSO4·H2O, 1.74, 2.61 3.48 kg hm−2) sodium selenite (Na2SeO3, 15 30 g were sprayed individually or simultaneously at key stages growth (the jointing, booting, filling stage) under field conditions. On basis soil application, foliar application alone greatly increased grain by 12.07–71.88% (up 41.66–64.30 mg kg−1), content 131.81–527.21% 0.21–0.50 while had little effect Zn. Compared alone, co-application 1.74–16.15%, significantly reduced 25.43–86.34% was more pronounced an in dosage. Moreover, positive correlations found between copper (Cu) grains, grains could provide adequate dietary intakes manganese (Mn), Cu, molybdenum (Mo) for humans.
