Climate change can affect the characteristics of various
crops,
such as biomass production, phenology, and physiology. Heat stress
is one of the critical environmental factors for climate change; here, Sesamum indicum L. was planted in the field under
heat stress of El-Wadi El-Gedeed conditions. To overcome the loss
in seed yield and oil contents, the titanium–organic framework
(MIL-125-NH2) can be modified with a free amino group in
the network backbone using polyamines such as putrescine (Put), spermidine
(Spd), and spermine (Spr) through a cross-linker with the phosphoryl
group. The modified materials were sprayed on the vegetative part
of S. indicum L., and the obtained
results showed that the prepared materials have excellent performance
toward growth parameters, added chemical components, and crop yield.
The weight of sesame seeds obtained after treatment with Put@MIL-125-NH2, Spr@MIL-125-NH2, and Spd@MIL-125-NH2 showed an increase that is 1.39, 1.92, and 2.16 times that of the
control experiment. The finding results support sustainable modern
agriculture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
