Multi-stimuli-responsive pectin-coated dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles with Eugenol as a sustained release nanocarrier for the control of tomato bacterial wilt

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 23(1)

Abstract Background Environmentally responsive nanoscale biocide delivery system enhances smart, regulated, and synergistic application with precise release. In this study, pectin-modified dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs) was used as a carrier to successfully construct microenvironment-responsive (pH, temperature enzyme) eugenol nano-biocide for the control of Ralstonia solanacearum infection. Results The results showed that specific surface area, pore size activity DMSNs significantly influence loading eugenol, capability up 72.50%. Eu@DMSNs/Pec had significant pH pectinase stimulating effects, varying release amounts under different conditions. Compared alone, enhanced efficacy eugenol. assisted induce peroxidation damage, produce ROS (•O 2 − , •OH 1 O ), achieve antibacterial better rain erosion resistance foliar retention rate based on pectin wettability adhesion. Eu@DMSNs/Pec-FITC demonstrated efficient transport characteristics in tomato roots, stems leaves, which effect bacterial wilt. addition, exert minimal seed germination root growth, have low toxicity non-target organisms such earthworms. Therefore, environment-responsive nano-controlled nanocarrier can effectively accurate reduce dosage. Conclusion This work not only provides DMSNs-based response environmental conditions R. infection but also elucidates loading, selective ability mechanism system.

Effect of Light Conditions, Trichoderma Fungi and Food Polymers on Growth and Profile of Biologically Active Compounds in Thymus vulgaris and Thymus serpyllum

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 25(9), С. 4846 - 4846

The research investigates the influence of different lighting conditions and soil treatments, in particular application food polymers separately combination with spores Trichoderma consortium, on growth development herbs—Thymus vulgaris Thymus serpyllum. metabolic analysis focuses detecting changes levels biologically active compounds such as chlorophyll a b, anthocyanins, carotenoids, phenolic (including flavonoids), terpenoids, volatile organic potential health-promoting properties. By investigating these factors, study aims to provide insights into how environmental affect chemical composition selected plants shed light strategies for optimising cultivation herbs improved quality production bioactive compounds. Under additional lighting, T. serpyllum seedlings was greatly accelerated, resulting an increase shoot biomass length, case vulgaris, carotenoid anthocyanin contents. Regarding secondary metabolites, most pronounced were observed total antioxidant capacity flavonoid content, which increased significantly under lighting. simultaneous or separate resulted content leaves both species. terpenoid supplemental appears be related presence well added soil. However, nature depends thyme Volatile analysed using electronic nose (E-nose). Eight (VOCs) tentatively identified vapours serpyllum: α-pinene, myrcene, α-terpinene, γ-terpinene; 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol), thymol, carvacrol, eugenol. Tendencies percentage thymol γ-terpinene observed. results also demonstrate positive effect and, lesser extent, fungi synthesis VOCs individual some cases γ-terpinene.

The Synergistic Effect of Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria and Spent Mushroom Substrate Improves Ginseng Quality and Rhizosphere Nutrients

Agriculture, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(11), С. 1880 - 1880

The ginseng industry’s reliance on chemicals for fertilizer and pesticides has adversely affected the environment decreased quality of ginseng; therefore, microbial inoculum is an effective way to restore damaged soil in fields. To investigate effects plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) spent mushroom substrate (SMS) ginseng, high throughput sequencing was performed examine community structures rhizosphere soil. All treatments significantly increased nutrient, enzyme activity, biomass compared control (p < 0.05). combination PGPR SMS notably enhanced activities: urease (7.29%), sucrase (29.76%), acid phosphatase (13.24%), amylase (38.25%) had different diversity. Significantly, diversity by increasing abundance beneficial bacteria such as Allorhizobium-Neorhizobium-Pararhizobium-Rhizobium Plectosphaerella, meanwhile suppressing harmful Klebsiella. relative Fusarium reduced some extent with application alone. organic matter, available potassium, phosphorus, alkaline nitrogen, key factors, influenced structures. Overall, positively impacted quality.
