The key algal response mechanisms to cope with NP toxicity and implications for bloom control by NPs.
Nanosilicon applications have been shown to increase plant defenses against both abiotic and biotic stresses. Silicon quantum nanodots (Si NDs), a form of nanosilicon, possess excellent biological physiochemical properties (e.g., minimal size, high water solubility, stability, biocompatibility), potentially making them more efficient in regulating responses stress than other forms silicon. However, date, we still lack mechanistic evidence for how soil-applied Si NDs alter the regulation...
Abstract Subterranean detritivores such as earthworms can increase soil nutrient availability through their burrowing and casting activities. A number of recent studies have explored whether these changes caused by may in turn affect plant performance resistance to herbivores, but no formal synthesis this literature has been conducted date. We tested for the effects on growth, chemical defences against insect herbivores performing a meta‐analysis existing up 2016. also ecological factors...
The interplay between root exudates and rhizobacteria is essential for enhancing agricultural productivity. Herein, the impacts of cerium dioxide nanomaterials (CeO2 NMs) on these interactions in soybean plants were investigated. Following 3-5 weeks exposure to 5 mg·kg-1 CeO2 NMs, composition changed over time, with isoflavone levels increasing by 6.3-21.7 folds, potentially manipulating rhizobacteria. Correspondingly, such as Ensifer, Allorhizobium, Nitrospira, Bradyrhizobium enriched...
The increasing use of nanopesticides in agriculture has raised concerns about their potential environmental health risks. Herein, we evaluate and compare the effects metal-based nano-copper oxide (nCuO) bio-based...
The widespread application of biodegradable microplastics (MPs) in recent years has resulted a significant increase their accumulation the environment, posing potential threats to ecosystems. Thus, it is imperative evaluate distribution and transformation MPs crops due utilization wastewater containing for irrigation plastic films, which have led rising concentration agricultural soils. present study analyzed uptake polylactic acid (PLA) maize. Seed germination hydroponic experiments were...
The main goal of this work was to quantify and explore the variation nanosilicon-mediated effects on mitigation oxidative stress in plants against abiotic biotic stress.
Plant cell growth promoted by nMnFe 2 O 4 and N-CDs is associated with nano-specific hormonal signaling pathways.
To promote the sustainable and safe application of nanotechnology employing engineered nanoparticles (NPs) in agroecosystems, it is crucial to pay more attention NP-mediated biological response process environmental impact assessment simultaneously. Herein, 50 mg kg-1 La2O3 NPs were added soils without with earthworms for cherry radish growth days investigate changes metabolites above- below-ground organs rhizosphere bacterial communities. We found that NP exposure, especially earthworms,...
Botanical pesticides have been shown to be an appropriate technology for crop protection as they present a high level of safety ecosystems and biodiversity. However, most botanical defects slow action, short persistence, instability during pest control, which restrict their further development application. Currently, nanodelivery systems displayed great promise solve these deficiencies. Herein, we used mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) nanocarriers loaded with pesticide matrine coated...
Soil-applied silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) significantly increased radish taproot resistance against white grubs and simultaneously shaped a healthy rhizosphere microenvironment.
