First Report of a Leaf Spot Disease Caused by Alternaria protenta on the Datura stramonium in Serbia
(Amer Phytopathological Soc, St Paul, 2020)
Toxic, Oviposition Deterrent and Oxidative Stress Effects of Thymus vulgaris Essential Oil against Acanthoscelides obtectus
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Simple Summary Compounds of botanical origin, including essential oils (EOs), which coevolved as plant defense mechanism against herbivores and pathogens have been proposed as a promising strategy for post-harvest control ...
Leaf Soluble Sugars and Free Amino Acids as Important Components of Abscisic Acid-Mediated Drought Response in Tomato
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Water deficit has a global impact on plant growth and crop yield. Climate changes are going to increase the intensity, duration and frequency of severe droughts, particularly in southern and south-eastern Europe, elevating ...
Fabrication and characterization of luminescent Pr3+ doped fluorapatite nanocrystals as bioimaging contrast agents
(Amsterdam : Elsevier, 2020)
Fluorapatite doped with rare-earth elements has a wide-range of biomedical applications. Here, a new type of fluorapatite nanocrystals doped with praseodymium (FAP-Pr) with excitation-emission profiles in visible part of ...
Influence of SnO2 Content on the Humidity Dependent Impedance of the MgFe2O4-Fe2O3-SnO2 Compound
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
A porous MgFe2O4-Fe2O3-SnO2 bulk compound with varying SnO2 content was obtained by sintering an appropriate mixture of magnesium oxide, hematite and tin oxide nanopowders at 1000 and 1100 degrees C. The obtained structure ...
Ultra-thin layers of iridium electrodeposited on Ti2AlC support as cost effective catalysts for hydrogen production by water electrolysis
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was investigated in 0.5 M H2SO4 at thin iridium layers electrodeposited on Ti2AlC substrate. Five samples, varying in thickness from 4.5 nm to 255 nm, were electrodeposited from the ...
Selenium activates components of iron acquisition machinery in oilseed rape roots
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
Aims Beneficial elements may stimulate plant growth by favoring the availability of essential nutrients for metabolic processes. This study addresses the still unexplored question whether the beneficial action of selenium ...
Variations in polyamine conjugates in maize (Zea mays L.) seeds contaminated with aflatoxin B1: a dose-response relationship
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
BACKGROUND Cereal seeds, such as maize seeds, are frequently contaminated with aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), one of the most dangerous naturally occurring carcinogens. In plants, phenolamides are involved in biotic stress response. ...
