“…They observed a significantly higher biomass after urea and NBPT treatment than after urea treatment. Galindo et al [50] reported that increased N uptake and increased chlorophyll after urea and NBPT treatment promote higher photosynthesis, which is the most important mechanism for growth and biomass synthesis in plants, providing a driving force for yield [51]. In this study, NLU treatment led to a significantly higher leaf area compared with urea treatment.…”

Foliar Urea with N-(n-butyl) Thiophosphoric Triamide for Sustainable Yield and Quality of Pineapple in a Controlled Environment

In agricultural production, nitrogen loss leads to economic loss and is a high environmental risk affecting plant growth, yield, and quality. Use of the N fertilizer with a urease inhibitor is thus necessary to minimize N losses and increase the efficiency of N. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of N-(n-butyl) Thiophosphoric Triamide (NBPT) on the growth, yield, and quality of pineapple. The experiment involved two foliar fertilizer treatments: 1% (w/v) urea solution with NBPT (2.25 mL kg−1 urea) was treated as NLU (NBPT Liquid Urea), and the same concentration of urea without NBPT served as the control. Both were applied 12 times, starting 1 month after planting (MAP) and continuing once a month for 12 months. The application of urea with NBPT notably increased the above-ground dry biomass per plant (20% and 10% at 8 and 12 MAP, respectively), leaf area per plant (23% and 15% at 8 and 12 MAP, respectively), N accumulation per plant (10%), PFPN (Partial Factor Productivity) (13%), and average fruit weight (15%) compared to the treatment with urea alone (control). The analysis of quality parameters indicated that urea with NBPT improves TSS (Total Soluble Solids) (19%), ascorbic acid (10%), and sucrose (14%) but reduces the total organic acid content (21%) in pineapple. When using urea with a urease inhibitor (NBPT), there was a significant improvement in growth, yield, quality, and nitrogen use efficiency, with the additional benefit of reduced nitrogen losses, in combination with easy handling. Hence, urea with a urease inhibitor can be used as a viable alternative for increasing pineapple yield by boosting growth with better fruit quality.

“…In agricultural studies, high urease enzyme content causes intense environmental and hence economic issues. Due to the lack of effective and safe drugs to tackle the aforementioned disturbances, the quest for new scaffolds is becoming mandatory in the field of medicinal chemistry [ 18 ]. The diverse and important roles of urease support this enzyme to be the focus of researchers around the world in the fields of biochemistry, genetics, and physiology.…”

IntroductionAlpinetin is the bioactive component of a traditional Chinese medicine. This compound, one of the main constituents from the seeds of Alpinia katsumadai Hayata, belongs to flavonoids with its usefulness as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and other significant therapeutic activities of important potency and low systemic toxicity.Material and methodsThe molecular docking study as a complementary study was performed to provide additional data about the biological activities of alpinetin in the presence of urease. The docking calculations revealed that alpinetin with a docking score of -5.097 (kcal/mol) has an acceptable binding affinity to the enzyme, and because of various hydrophobic contacts and hydrogen bonds created by this chemical compound, alpinetin could be considered as an adequate inhibitor for urease. In the cellular and molecular part of the recent study, the treated cells with Alpinetin were assessed by MTT assay for 48h about the cytotoxicity and anti-human gastric carcinoma properties on normal (HUVEC) and gastric carcinoma cell lines i.e. SNU-1, Hs 746T, and KATO III.ResultsIn our study, inhibition result of Isoliquiritigenin on HMG-CoA reductase showed lower value IC50 = 21.86±1.44 µg / mL. The IC50 of Alpinetin were 426, 586, and 424 µg/mL against SNU-1, Hs 746T, and KATO III cell lines, respectively.ConclusionsThe viability of malignant gastric cell line reduced dose-dependently in the presence of Alpinetin. It seems that the anti-human gastric carcinoma effect of recent molecule is due to their antioxidant effects.

“…The inoculation of seed with Azospirillum brasilense together with the application of 140 kg N ha −1 caused an increase in wheat grain yield [21,26]. Inoculation with A. brasilense in treatment with the application of 100 and 150 kg N ha −1 caused an increase in grain yield by 19.6% and 18.8%, respectively [27]. It is inferred that the A. brasilense is efficient in performing partial nitrogen fixation supplemented by nitrogen fertilization; yield is positively influenced by nitrogen fertilization associated with inoculation, regardless of the type of inoculants [17].…”

The introduction of the “Farm to Fork” strategy in the EU will require a significant reduction in mineral nitrogen fertilization, and therefore the introduction of innovative production technologies to prevent a decline in agricultural production. Studies carried out in several locations in Poland in 2016/17–2018/2019 tested the possibility of replacing 30% of the dose of mineral nitrogen with growth activators alone, in combination with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in the cultivation of winter wheat. It was confirmed that these two combinations allowed the obtention of a higher yield of grain by 13%, compared to the full nitrogen dose. Simultaneously, the grain quality did not change significantly. In some locations, a decrease in the content of nitrates in the soil was observed, which may mean a greater uptake of this nutrient by plants and an increase in the content of some available macro- and micro-elements, mainly phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, copper and iron, and soil organic carbon. Introducing the studied treatment and limiting the fertilization with mineral nitrogen of wheat in Poland by only 30 kg ha−1 N would save its consumption by 72 thousand t per year.
