Transcriptome Profiling of the Potato Exposed to French Marigold Essential Oil with a Special Emphasis on Leaf Starch Metabolism and Defense against Colorado Potato Beetle
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
Flower strips of French Marigold are commonly used pest repellents in potato fields. However, the effect of French Marigold volatiles on potato metabolism, physiology and induced defense is unknown. Thus, a microarray ...
A comprehensive assessment of the chemical composition, antioxidant, genoprotective and antigenotoxic activities of Lamiaceae species using different experimental models in vitro
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2021)
This research was aimed to assess the potential of Glechoma hederacea, Hyssopus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia, Leonurus cardiaca, Marrubium vulgare and Sideritis scardica (Lamiaceae) methanolic, ethanolic and aqueous ...
Repellent activity of Tanacetum parthenium (L.) and Tanacetum vulgare (L.) essential oils against Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)
(Cambridge Univ Press, Cambridge, 2021)
The Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is one of the most destructive pest species to have developed resistance to most chemical insecticides. We determined the composition and evaluated the potential ...
Formation and Properties of Oxide Coatings with Immobilized Zeolites Obtained by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation of Aluminum
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
In this paper, we employed plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of aluminum in a water solution of sodium tungstate (Na2WO4 center dot 2H(2)O) with the addition of the pure and Ce-loaded zeolites clinoptilolite and 13 X for ...
Differential Response of Two Tomato Genotypes, Wild Type cv. Ailsa Craig and Its ABA-Deficient Mutant flacca to Short-Termed Drought Cycles
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
Two tomato genotypes with constitutively different ABA level, flacca mutant and wild type of Ailsa Craig cv. (WT), were subjected to three repeated drought cycles, with the aim to reveal the role of the abscisic acid (ABA) ...
Biocompatibility of mesoporous SBA-16/hydroxyapatite nanocomposite and dentin demineralized particles on human dental pulp stem cells
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2021)
In the present work, a biomaterial (SBA-16/HA) based on the growth of hydroxyapatite (HA) particles within an organized silica structure SBA-16 (Santa Barbara Amorphous-16) was developed to evaluate its application to act ...
Natural Pigment from Madder Plant as an Eco-Friendly Cathode Material for Aqueous Li and Na-Ion Batteries
(Electrochemical Soc Inc, Pennington, 2021)
Modifying commercial Li-ion batteries to become more environmentally friendly is of a growing concern. This paper provides an examination of a potential replacement for commercial cathode material using a naturally occurring ...
Signal transduction in Phycomyces sporangiophores: columella as a novel sensory organelle mediating auxin-modulated growth rate and membrane potential
(Springer Wien, Wien, 2021)
The growing zone (GZ) of the unicellular coenocytic sporangiophore of Phycomyces blakesleeanus represents the site of stimulus reception (light, gravity, gas) and stimulus response, i.e., local modulations of the elongation ...
Estimation of carbon dots amelioration of copper toxicity in maize studied by synchrotron radiation-FTIR
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
Carbon dots are biocompatible and non-toxic nanoparticles with chemical affinity to some heavy metals. Human activities increase soil pollution with copper. Cu is an essential microelement in plants, but excess can induce ...
Screening of semi-volatile compounds in plants treated with coated cerium oxide nanoparticles by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2021)
Literature data about semi-volatile organic compounds in plants and the effect of cerium oxide nanoparticles on them are scarce. Surface modification of nanoparticles may change nanoparticle-environment interaction, and ...
