Nano-fertilisers have only recently been introduced to intensify plant production, and there still remains inadequate scientific knowledge on their plant-related effects. This paper therefore compares the effects of two nano-fertilisers common sunflower production under field conditions. The benefits arising from foliar application micronutrient-based zinc oxide fertiliser were compared with those titanium dioxide plant-growth enhancer. Both (ZnO) (TiO2) delivered by in nano-size at a...
In environmental and agronomic settings, even minor imbalances can trigger a range of unpredicted responses. Despite the widespread use metal-based nanoparticles (NPs) new bio-nanofertilizers, their impact on crop production is absent in literature. Therefore, our research focused effect spray application gold anchored to SiO2 mesoporous silica (AuSi-NPs), zinc oxide (ZnO-NPs), iron (Fe3O4-NPs) sunflowers under real-world environments. Our findings revealed that biosynthetically prepared...
One of the challenges in agriculture practices is guaranteeing an adequate and bioavailable phosphorus supply for plants on phosphorus-deficient soils. A promising alternative lies utilization phosphate nano-fertilizers (NFs) through spray applications. Therefore, this short-term study aimed to investigate yet undetermined widespread impact P-NFs crops characterized by broad leaves, intensive rate photosynthesis, belonging oilseed plant, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). To achieve this, NFs...
On a daily basis, wide range of materials including inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) inadvertently find their way into the environment. Meanwhile, intentionally used NPs, such as new generation nanofertilizers (NFs) are designed to enhance agronomic production. However, physicochemical properties and not-so-well understood effects raise potential risks plant reproductive cycle, specifically pollen development, subject largely absent in academic research. Even slight contamination, deformation,...
Distribution of Lolium remotum in Slovakia, a typical linicolous weed, is presented this paper. The species was recorded 30 quadrants the Central European mapping grid; most localities were found Carpathians which related to areas flax cultivation for linen industry. While 19th century it relatively common fields, after First World War began decline (flax sown decreased by three quarters former Czechoslovakia during world economic crisis 1929-1933). In second half 20th century, synergistic...
The presented eighth part of the series includes thirteen new chorological records vascular plants, one from Hungary, six Poland and Slovakia. In Ventenata dubia is reported. Poland, two native taxa Bolboschoenus planiculmis Najas marina subsp. four alien Buddleja davidii, Lupinus ehrenbergii var. ehrenbergii, Miscanthus sacchariflorus Sedum sarmentosum are Slovakia, Taraxacum paucilobum with distribution map Cotoneaster integerrimus reported as well Azolla filiculoides, Eichhornia...

Samples collected from various localities Western Carpathians. The collection samples, designed counting pome, included 2353 >130Â individuals. Number ranged 1 to 5. Statistical...
The presented 10th part of the series includes fifteen new chorological records, one from Czechia, two Hungary, three Poland, five Slovakia and four Ukrainian Carpathians. In Czech Silesia, Arum maculatum, considerably remote species continuous distribution area, was found. spreading Geranium sibiricum Limonium gmelinii subsp. hungaricum recorded. alien Erigeron sumatrensis Lepidium didymum were found as well native Typha shuttleworthii, which is considered vulnerable. Slovakia, localities...
