Article Synopsis
- * The researchers synthesized SPIONS using iron salts, confirmed their characteristics with several analytical techniques, and conducted germination tests on seeds with different treatments.
- * Results indicated that while germination rates were highest in the control group, the SPION group showed the best root growth and higher iron absorption in the plants, suggesting SPIONS are effective as nanofertilizers.
Sucrose metabolism and the role of sucrose synthase were investigated in the fruit tissues (pericarp, perisperm, and endosperm) of Coffea arabica during development. Acid invertase, sucrose phosphate synthase, and sucrose synthase activities were monitored and compared with the levels of sucrose and reducing sugars. Among these enzymes, sucrose synthase showed the highest activities during the last stage of endosperm and pericarp development and this activity paralleled closely the accumulation of sucrose in these tissues at this stage.
