Abstract

Correct combinations and levels of plant macronutrients nutrients for wheat not only improve crop growth and productivity but also making better yields. The main objective of this research was to determine how nano fertilizer treatments viz., nano N, nano K, and nano P, applications affect wheat productivity. The experimental designs included treatments with multiple nano-fertilizer combinations ranging from no fertilization to separate applications of 50 mg L⁻¹ nano N, nano P, and nano K and combinations of N + P, N + K, P + K, and N + P + K applied in foliar form. Findings revealed that applying different combinations of NPK improved the wheat growth and biomass such as root dry weight (176.96 %) but also the overall wheat productivity by improving the spike length (48.19 %), 1000 grain weight (85.25 %) and grain yield per plant (163.44 %). Combined approach of nano NPK improved the photosynthetic attributes by improving the total chlorophyll (135.63 %), and wheat quality by increasing protein contents (78.75 %), wet gluten (52.86 %) and overall flour yield (69.68 %). A linear reduction in lipid peroxidation properties was noted with the use of coupled NPK. The combined application of nano-NPK fertilization evidently improved all yield and quality parameters, which subsequently showed less response with the split application of nano-NPK fertilization. However, the use of P and K in combination indicated an inferior response when compared to NP and NK fertilization. Direct relationship between nano-NPK fertilizer application and wheat grains quality was also noticed. The findings highlighted that balanced application of NPK nano-fertilization treatments drives crop productivity through improved yield and defense systems while reducing wheat crop damage from oxidative stress.

平衡施用纳米宏量营养素通过调控小麦抗氧化活性促进小麦生长、产量和品质。

小麦植物宏量营养素的正确组合和水平不仅能促进作物生长和生产力，而且能提高产量。本研究的主要目的是确定纳米肥处理（即纳米氮、纳米钾和纳米磷）对小麦产量的影响。试验设计包括多种纳米肥料组合处理，从不施肥到分别施用50mg -1纳米氮、纳米磷和纳米钾，以及N + P、N + K、P + K和N + P + K叶面组合施用。结果表明，施用不同氮磷钾组合对小麦生长和生物量有显著的促进作用，如提高根干重（176.96%），提高穗长（48.19%）、千粒重（85.25%）和单株籽粒产量（163.44%）。纳米氮磷钾联合施用改善了光合特性，提高了总叶绿素（135.63%），提高了小麦品质，提高了蛋白质含量（78.75%）、湿面筋含量（52.86%）和总面粉产量（69.68%）。使用偶联氮磷钾，脂质过氧化性能线性降低。纳米氮磷钾配施显著提高了水稻产量和品质指标，而纳米氮磷钾分施对产量和品质指标的影响较小。然而，与NP和NK施肥相比，P和K配施的反应较差。纳米氮磷钾的施用与小麦籽粒品质有直接关系。研究结果表明，平衡施用氮磷钾纳米施肥处理通过提高产量和防御系统来提高作物生产力，同时减少氧化胁迫对小麦作物的损害。

期刊介绍： Plant Science will publish in the minimum of time, research manuscripts as well as commissioned reviews and commentaries recommended by its referees in all areas of experimental plant biology with emphasis in the broad areas of genomics, proteomics, biochemistry (including enzymology), physiology, cell biology, development, genetics, functional plant breeding, systems biology and the interaction of plants with the environment. Manuscripts for full consideration should be written concisely and essentially as a final report. The main criterion for publication is that the manuscript must contain original and significant insights that lead to a better understanding of fundamental plant biology. Papers centering on plant cell culture should be of interest to a wide audience and methods employed result in a substantial improvement over existing established techniques and approaches. Methods papers are welcome only when the technique(s) described is novel or provides a major advancement of established protocols.
