Recent studies on iodine biofortification of potato have documented various contents in tubers: from very low to such covering the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA-I). The aim work was evaluate efficiency using six iodoquinolines applied two doses, with KIO3 as a reference compound. mineral status plants and nutritional health-promoting value tubers were also studied. Iodine enrichment ranged followed: (1.44-28.53 % RDA-I) > 5,7-diiodo-8-quinolinol (1.53-9.80 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-quinolinol (1.24-8.81 8-hydroxy-7-iodo-5-quinolinesulfonic acid (1.06-7.35 4-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline-3-carboxylic (0.94-6.53 4-hydroxy-6-iodoquinoline-3-carboxylic (1.03-3.10 4-hydroxy-8-iodoquinoline-3-carboxylic (1.08-1.18 versus control (0.42-0.94 RDA-I). Higher levels obtained for 50 than 10 μM doses. Iodoquinolines detected plants. metabolic profile (including content iodotyrosine, iodosalicylates iodobenzoates) after application similar that noted

Characterization of Root and Foliar-Applied Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (α-Fe2O3, γ-Fe2O3, Fe3O4, and Bulk Fe3O4) in Improving Maize (Zea mays L.) Performance

Nanomaterials, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 13(23), С. 3036 - 3036

Опубликована: Ноя. 28, 2023

Iron (Fe) oxide nanoparticles (NPs) improve crop growth. However, the comparative effect of root and foliar-applied different sources Fe NPs on plant performance at morphological physiological levels still needs to be discovered. In this study, we characterized growth responses hydroponic-cultured maize seedlings four (i.e., α-Fe2O3, γ-Fe2O3, Fe3O4 NPs, bulk Fe3O4) two application methods (root vs. foliar). Results showed that concentration in shoot increased by elevating level from 100 mg L-1 500 L-1. Overall, were as follows: > γ-Fe2O3 α-Fe2O3 Fe3O4. The concentrations ranging had no significant effects various parameters maize, including biomass, chlorophyll content, length. biomass 23-37% application, whereas it was 5-9% foliar application. Chlorophyll contents 29-34% 18-22% applications, respectively. non-significant response reactive oxygen species superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase) suggested optimum for supplementing NPs. A confocal laser scanning microscope entered through epidermis cortex endodermis. Our results provide a scientific basis rate is promising approach obtain higher reduce quantity fertilizer used agriculture minimize environmental while improving productivity quality. These findings demonstrated tremendous potential an environmentally friendly sustainable approach.

Fermented Deproteinized Alfalfa Juice Modified with Fly Ash Filtrate as an Alternative Nutrient Source for Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Agronomy, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(2), С. 339 - 339

Опубликована: Янв. 28, 2025

An alternative method of plant nutrition involves the utilization different by-products. In this study, a combination two by-products was applied to investigate method: fermented deproteinized alfalfa juice (FDAJ), by-product leaf protein production, and fly ash filtrate from wood-fired power plant. A pot experiment conducted with winter wheat in an open-sided greenhouse sandy soil. The aim evaluate efficacy usability these (SFDAJ) for enhanced via spraying or irrigation. Prior overwintering, photosynthetic pigments, relative chlorophyll content, specific area, shoot dry weight were measured. At full maturity, we determined morphological parameters, yield, element content grain. Significant differences observed between treatments at maturity. application SFDAJ resulted 73.2% yield having optimal nutrient supply. Compared treatment no nutrients added, increased yields by 260%. Our results show that alone is suitable providing supply soils good extensive cultivation technology. When supplemented fertilizer, it can be used on low intensive Based our field applications SFDAJ, addition 10 v v−1% FDAJ irrigation recommended.

Silicon (Si) is a beneficial nutrient well-known for its functions in enhancing plant resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses. How Si application affects tomato yield quality underlying physiological mechanisms remain largely unclear. Our pot experiment showed that (45 kg ha⁻¹ Na₂SiO₃) significantly promoted accumulation of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, the shoot soil-cultured greenhouse. Such improved mineral nutrition favored Si-applied performance terms height, stem diameter, single fruit weight, yield, as indicated by significant increases 11.34%, 53.57%, 62.12%, 33.81%, respectively, when compared control (0 Na₂SiO₃). Higher catalase superoxide dismutase activities contrast lower concentrations hydrogen peroxide malondialdehyde suggested facilitated health. Importantly, upregulated expression phytoene synthase carotenoid isomerase enhanced corresponding enzyme activities, resulting higher lycopene fruit. also stimulated vitamin C synthesis genes (GDP-D-mannose-3', 5'-isomerase, GDP-L-galactose phosphorylase, dehydroascorb-ate reductase, monodehydroascorbate reductase) levels accumulation. health, nutritional at molecular level, favoring production towards sustainable agricultural development.

ABSTRACT Sustainable bitter gourd production requires optimising the combined organic and inorganic nutrient management. Hence, a field experiment was conducted to evaluate impact of amendments on productivity, quality, use efficiency, soil microbial activity, health, profitability. Treatments were T 1 : control, 2 recommended dose N-P-K-S-Zn-B at 120-40-85-20-3-2 kg · ha −1 , 3 5 t vermicompost (VC) + 50% NPKSZnB, 4 2.5 poultry manure (PM) VC 75% 6 PM 7 cow dung (CD) 8 CD 9 25% NPKSZnB. Integrating with NPKSZnB fertiliser (T ) significantly boosted fresh fruit yield (13.1 ), 192% higher over larger fruits, count, greater vine length. Treatment also excelled in vitamin C (77.6 mg 100 g β-carotene (122 mcg protein (18.1%), moisture content (93.4%), total soluble solids (4.0°Brix), alongside enhanced uptake, robust populations, economic returns (4552 US$ ). exhibited highest agronomic removal efficiencies for key nutrients. Therefore, application offer promising approach sustainable production. This method not only boosts quality but improves health minimises environmental risks through reducing chemical use.
