Stimulating action of sodium nitroprusside and vinasse on salicin and direct regeneration in Forssk.

The present study aimed to enhance salicin and direct regeneration in willow ( Forssk) using the sodium nitroprusside (SNP) regulation of nitric oxide (NO) and vinasse for its nutrition effect in culture medium. Internodes of were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with benzyl adenine (BA) (0.25 mg L) and different concentrations of SNP (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 mg L) or vinasse (0, 5, 10, and 20%) to examine shoot regeneration, antioxidant defense enzyme activity, total phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and salicine contents.

Enhancing french basil growth through synergistic Foliar treatment with copper nanoparticles and Spirulina sp.

Background: This study investigates a novel idea about the foliar application of nanoparticles as nanofertilizer combined with a natural stimulant, blue-green algae Spirulina platensis L. extract, as a bio-fertilizer to achieve safety from using nanoparticles for enhancement of the growth and production of the plant. Thus, this experiment aimed to chemically synthesize copper nanoparticles via copper sulfate in addition to evaluate the impact of CuNPs at 500, 1000, and 1500 mg/L and the combination of CuNPs with or without microalgae extract at 0.
