Thus, it is crucial to investigate which source and amount of B applied to the soil is most suitable to increase the yield and maintain the quality of germination and carbohydrate content in soybean seeds during 180 days of storage. The cultivar Bonus 8579 Ipro® was evaluated in a field experiment in a 5 × 2 factorial scheme, with five B doses: 0, 1, 2, 4 and 8 kg ha⁻¹, and two sources: boric acid and ulexite, arranged in randomized block design with three replicates. After harvest, the B content and accumulation of B in yield and seed quality were analyzed. Subsequently, the seeds were stored in a cold chamber at 17 °C and controlled relative humidity of 20% for 180 days. Soybean plants responded positively to the boric acid and ulexite with an increase in yield and seed quality up to the doses of 3.17 and 3.36 kg ha⁻¹ of B, respectively. Furthermore, both sources potentiated the carbohydrate content in the seeds over the storage time. Our findings reveal that the application from 3.2 to 4.0 kg ha⁻¹ of B using boric acid maintains high seed germination after 180 days of storage.</p>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141945446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pb-N complex stress mitigates the physiological damage of a single stress (Pb or N) on bryophytes","authors":"Mingming Wang, Yuxin Xiao, Boyi Song, Xinyu Zhang, Weiwei Zhuang","doi":"10.1007/s11738-024-03686-0","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s11738-024-03686-0","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Nitrogen (N) deposition levels and the frequency of lead (Pb) contamination events are increasing globally. In an effort to improve our understanding of plant responses to these stressors, we investigated moss responses to single and combined Pb and N stress. Three mosses from different habitats (<i>Syntrichia caninervis</i>, <i>Bryum argenteum</i> and <i>Plagiomnium acutum</i>) were studied and simulated Pb/N single and complex stresses were applied to them indoors. The chlorophyll (Chl) content, osmotic adjustment substances content, and antioxidant enzyme activities were measured at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. The results revealed that the tolerance of the three bryophyte species to Pb or N stress was in the order of <i>P. acutum</i> &gt; <i>B. argenteum</i> &gt; <i>S. caninervis</i>, which was closely related to the conditions of their respective natural habitats. <i>S. caninervis</i> and <i>B. argenteum</i> were stress tolerant for 7 days and <i>P. acutum</i> for 14 days. The bryophytes were tolerant to Pb or N stress after the contents of osmoregulatory substances and antioxidant enzyme activities increased; however, as toxicity accumulated over time, all three species suffered irreversible damage, as indicated by an abrupt decrease in the Chl content and osmoregulatory substances, as well as a sudden drop in antioxidant enzyme activities. Under the combined effects of Pb-N stress, the Chl content, osmoregulatory substance contents, and antioxidant enzyme activities were significantly higher in the N-loving <i>P. acutum</i> (N produced significant benefits) than in <i>P. acutum</i> exposed to Pb stress alone. This phenomenon is likely because Pb and N have antagonistic effects on the growth of <i>P. acutum</i>; thus, their recombination generates a counter-balancing effect. In the N-sensitive species, <i>S. caninervis</i> and <i>B. argenteum</i> (N caused obvious toxicity), the indicators were slightly better than under N tress alone (indicated by the reduction of membrane lipid peroxidation and increased osmoregulatory substance contents and enzyme activities), suggesting that there is a certain antagonistic effect exerted by the simultaneous addition of Pb and N. Therefore, the detrimental effects of a single abiotic stress (Pb or N) on bryophytes may be diminished under the combined conditions of N deposition and presence of the heavy metal, Pb.</p>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141529231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While ZnO NPs hold promise for agriculture, concerns exist regarding their potential harm to plants and the environment. Incorporating ZnO NPs into a CS matrix to form CS/ZnO NCPs offers a solution. The metal-chelating properties of CS can regulate the release of Zn²⁺ ions from the NPs, reducing their availability to plants and mitigating potential toxicity. In the present work, the effect of ZnO NPs and CS/ZnO NCPs at two different concentrations, i.e., 100 and 200 ppm, has been tested on <i>Sorghum bicolor</i> plants. The ZnO NPs and CS/ZnO NCPs were chemically synthesized and characterized with various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. Plants grown in ZnO NPs-treated soil for 30 days exhibited reduced growth, decreased chlorophyll, starch, and cellulose levels as well as nutrient (K, Mg and P) uptake. In addition, these nanoparticles increased malondialdehyde (MDA) content and the activities of antioxidant enzymes in the shoots, indicating their phytotoxicity to <i>S. bicolor</i> plants. Conversely, CS/ZnO NCPs application stimulated plant growth, nutrient uptake, chlorophyll and starch contents, while reducing MDA content and superoxide dismutase activity. The CS/ZnO NCPs-treated plants also accumulated 2.5–3.5 times less Zn²⁺ than ZnO NP-treated plants. Results of the study established that utilizing ZnO NPs in the form of CS/ZnO NCPs can maximize the beneficial characteristics of both nanomaterials while simultaneously limiting the toxic effects of ZnO on <i>S. bicolor</i> plants.</p>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141505389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
