Nanoparticles have been widely used in recent years, to increase plant tolerance under stress conditions. In this study, TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) (100 ppm) were applied tomato plants exposed drought, and the changes investigated by physiological, biochemical proteomic methods. It was determined that NPs treatment increased relative water content decreased proline malondialdehyde drought As a result of analysis, it revealed expression total 132 proteins changed as comparison groups (drought...

Abstract Nanoparticle applications have recently become a popular method due to increase the tolerance levels of plants environmental stresses. In this study, changes induced by exogenous application green synthesized and commercially purchased zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) (100, 500, 1000 mg/L) drought-stressed Capsicum annuum were studied through comprehensive morphologic, anatomic, physiological biochemical analyzes. While drought decreased relative water content (RWC) leaf potential...

Drought is one of the most significant stress factors that constrain plant growth. Many studies focused on methods to enhance tolerance against drought. Recently, focus has been exogenous applications and, in particular, nanomaterials powered by advancements field nanotechnology. Silicon appears support some plants different factors, including Despite this, there a remarkable lack use silicon for enhancing drought wild and cultivated chickpeas. In this study, 150 mg L-1 SiO2 nanoparticle...

The effects of cadmium (Cd) on antioxidant responses and sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) were studied in Vicia faba L. activities superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), the levels (ASC), (GSH), hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde (MDA, indicator lipid peroxidation) measured. Genotoxicity was evaluated by measuring changes mitotic index (MI) (SCE). Increased SOD CAT observed plants treated with 50 100 µM Cd. It found that APX...

The need for foodstuff that emerged with the rapidly increasing world population made fertilizers and pesticides inevitable to obtain maximum efficiency from existing agricultural areas. Sulfoxaflor is currently only member of new sulfoximine insecticide subclass nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonists. In study, it was aimed determine in vitro genetic, oxidative damage potential, genotoxic apoptotic effects three different concentrations (10 µg/mL, 20 µg/mL 40 µg/mL) sulfoxaflor cultures...

The roles of ascorbate and glutathione as key antioxidant molecules involves in environmental stress responses have already been well indicated. We conducted experiments order to study the effects exogenous (ASC) (GSH) treatments on enzyme activities ASC GSH levels cultivated wild type chickpea plants under drought stress. determined that accumulation, increased due stress, except for CAT activity, both species. treatment level APX activity C. arietinum high concentration treatment....

Genetic characterization plays a key role in chickpea breedingprograms since genetic base of the cultivated is narrow.This study aims to determine relationships among 23 (Cicer arietinum L.) and 2 genotypes Cicer reticulatum Ladizusing simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular markers with 10 SSR primer pairs.A total 58 alleles were detected at loci.The number per locus ranged from 11, an average 5.8.The polymorphic information (PI) 0.074 (NCPGR42) 0.806 (NCPGR28) 0.42.The similarity all...

The most important development period in cereal plants is the initial stage, that is, seed germination and early seedling development. Even if barley thought to be a partially salt-tolerant plant, it may severely affected when exposed salinity at developmental periods. Pre-treatment preparation of seeds before sowing have an agriculture. Nano-seed priming treatment new approach used increase germination, emergence growth recently. In this study, effects nano-TiO2 (0, 100, 200 mg L-1 n-TiO2)...

Bu çalışmada tuz stresine maruz bırakılan Capsicum chinense (biber) bitkisinde, dışsal olarak yapraklardan uygulanan sentetik siklitol türevi allo-inositol'ün tolerans mekanizmasında oynadığı rollerin fizyolojik ve biyokimyasal yöntemlerle araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. kapsamda bitkiler (150 µM NaCl) gerek kontrol bitkileri gerekse uygulanmış stres gruplarıyla kıyaslanarak; yaprak su potansiyelleri, antioksidan enzim aktiviteleri, lipid peroksidasyonları (MDA), hidrojen peroksit (H2O2),...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of salinity, which is an important environmental problem, in cultivation ornamental plants (such as zinnia) and irrigation with high salt water, especially on antioxidant defense mechanism. For purpose, two Zinnia species were irrigated by different concentrations saline water (50, 100, 150, 200 mM NaCl); salinity superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR) lipid peroxidation (MDA) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)...

In this study, it was aimed to determine the relationship between β carbonic anhydrase (βCA) gene expression levels and drought stress severity. For purpose, of six βCA genes in roots leaves Arabidopsis thaliana were investigated under mild, moderate, severe conditions. addition, changes biomass, leaf water content, photosynthetic efficiency, CA enzyme activity, free proline lipid peroxidation also determined. The results showed that all activity increased mild conditions; however, (except...

Drought stress, which is the most important abiotic stress factor affecting arable land in world, causes serious crop losses. These losses reach up to 70% some agricultural plants. Understanding complex drought response very develop a strategy against this form of stress. Although progress has been achieved with previous studies, desired targets have not reached now. Therefore, using resistant varieties environmental conditions become widely used combating today. In study, total 23 cultivars...

Salt stress is one of the most important environmental factors that affect agricultural lands and causes product loss. Today, application various natural or synthetic molecules exogenously to plants efforts increase plant tolerance against stresses as a result these applications have been widely investigated by scientists. In this study, Schiff base molecule (0, 3, 6, 9 µM), which has shown in vitro antioxidant properties, was applied barley seeds under salt 50, 150, 250 mM NaCl). order...
