Sewage Pollution Promotes the Invasion-Related Traits of Impatiens glandulifera in an Oligotrophic Habitat of the Sharr Mountain (Western Balkans)
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
An annual plant, Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera Royle) is globally widespread and one of Europe's top invaders. We focused on two questions: does this species indeed not invade the southern areas and does the ...
Oxidative Stress and Antioxidative Activity in Leaves and Roots of Carrot Plants Induced by Candidatus Phytoplasma Solani
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
The present study examined the effects of Candidatus Phytoplasma solani infection on antioxidative metabolism in leaves and roots of carrot (Daucus carota L.). Disease symptoms appeared at the end of June in the form of ...
Silicon Reduces Aluminum-Induced Suberization by Inhibiting the Uptake and Transport of Aluminum in Rice Roots and Consequently Promotes Root Growth
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2022)
Silicon (Si) can alleviate aluminum (Al) toxicity in rice (Oryza sativa L.), but the mechanisms underlying this beneficial effect have not been elucidated, especially under long-term Al stress. Here, the effects of Al and ...
Light transport and localization in disordered aperiodic Mathieu lattices
(Optical Soc Amer, Washington, 2022)
Complex optical systems such as deterministic aperiodic Mathieu lattices are known to hinder light diffraction in a manner comparable to randomized optical systems. We systematically incorporate randomness in our complex ...
Visible-light photocatalytic degradation of Mordant Blue 9 by single-phase BiFeO3 nanoparticles
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2021)
This paper presents a systematic study on the photocatalytic activity of single-phase BiFeO3 (BFO) nanopowder, under the simulated solar irradiation in the presence of highly polluting textile dye (Mordant Blue 9). BFO ...
Swift electrochemical sensing of diltiazem employing highly-selective molecularly-imprinted 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
Diltiazem is a calcium channel-blocking agent, efficient in treating various heart-related conditions and diseases. It has been used as a cutting agent in cocaine and prevents its common cardiotoxic effects. This paper ...
Antimicrobial and Immunomodulating Activities of Two Endemic Nepeta Species and Their Major Iridoids Isolated from Natural Sources
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
Two Balkan Peninsula endemics, Nepeta rtanjensis and N. argolica subsp. argolica, both characterized by specialized metabolite profiles predominated by iridoids and phenolics, are differentiated according to the stereochemistry ...
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 ...
Soil parameters explain short-distance variation in production of Tuber aestivum Vittad. in an oak plantation in the central-northern part of the Great Hungarian Plain (Jaszsag region, Hungary)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
Truffles are ectomycorrhizal fungi of which several species can be commercially produced in man-made plan-tations using trees inoculated with their mycelia. The production in tree plantations is meant to increase the ...
