“…Same trend of results obtained with [ 49 ] who mentioned that CH can induce elicitation of the POD and PPO activity in palm roots. Protease inhibitors, β-1,3-glucanases, POD, PPO as an antioxidant defense enzymes were elevated in leaves and also in rhizomes in plants grown in field condition and treated with CH [ 33 ]. Chitinases and β-1,3-glucanase are members of a group of plant pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins showed a close relationship with resistance against pathogens that can be induced by CH [ 51 52 53 ].…”

“…Antioxidant enzyme activity as (POD and PPO) can be increased and associated with decreases in disease severity involved in plant pathogenic fungi, bacteria and viruses in a number of resistant interactions [ 57 58 59 60 ]. Seed germination, yield enhancement was stimulated in many crop species such as faba bean under effect of CH [ 61 ], cucumber [ 62 ], corn [ 63 ], green bean [ 64 ], barley [ 32 ], and curcumin [ 33 ].…”

Foliar sprays of three plant resistance inducers, including chitosan (CH), potassium sorbate (PS) (C6H7kO2), and potassium bicarbonates (PB) (KHCO3), were used for resistance inducing against Erysiphe cichoracearum DC (powdery mildew) infecting okra plants. Experiments under green house and field conditions showed that, the powdery mildew disease severity was significantly reduced with all tested treatments of CH, PS, and PB in comparison with untreated control. CH at 0.5% and 0.75% (w/v) plus PS at 1.0% and 2.0% and/or PB at 2.0% or 3.0% recorded as the most effective treatments. Moreover, the highest values of vegetative studies and yield were observed with such treatments. CH and potassium salts treatments reflected many compounds of defense singles which leading to the activation power defense system in okra plant. The highest records of reduction in powdery mildew were accompanied with increasing in total phenolic, protein content and increased the activity of polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase, chitinase, and β-1,3-glucanase in okra plants. Meanwhile, single treatments of CH, PS, and PB at high concentration (0.75%, 2.0%, and/or 3.0%) caused considerable effects. Therefore, application of CH and potassium salts as natural and chemical inducers by foliar methods can be used to control of powdery mildew disease at early stages of growth and led to a maximum fruit yield in okra plants.

“…They also showed that the application of chitosan‐NPs at 5 mL L −1 to mango trees increased fruit number per tree (35.28% more than the control), resistance against fruit malformation (38–40% more than the non‐NF treatment), quality, and physical and chemical properties of fruits . A spray with nano‐chitosan (0.1% w / v ) increased the activity of protease inhibitors, glucanases, and peroxidase, enzymes that promoted growth and metabolic processes in turmeric …”

Nanotechnology is currently being widely employed in agriculture and horticulture. The most widely investigated and developed factor related to fruit trees is nanofertilizers (NFs), which play very important roles in increasing vegetative growth, improving reproductive growth and flowering, thereby increasing productivity, product quality and ultimately increasing shelf-life and decreasing fruit waste. These nanomaterials, which are generally sprayed at low concentrations on trees at different time intervals and in frequent sessions, are also considered as growth stimulants. Macro-and micro-scale NFs such as zinc, boron, chitosan, and fertilizer nanocomposites such as ZnFeMnB (zinc, iron, manganese, boron), NPKMg (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium), and calcite have been shown to significantly improve the vegetative and reproductive traits of fruit trees such as pomegranate, strawberry, mango, date, coffee and grape. Knowledge on the effects of NFs on fruit trees and biological reasons for their effects on different traits is incomplete and there is an urgent need for extensive research on these topics.

“…In turmeric rhizomes, there are three main curcuminoids which are known as curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin as shown in Figure 2 (Osorio-Tobón et al, 2016). Curcumin, the main active constituent in C. longa displays a range of biologically important properties such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, anticarcinogenic and antiangiogenic (Anusuya and Sathiyabama, 2016). Curcumin is the pigment which imparts yellow colour on textile fibres (Sachan and Kapoor, 2007).…”

Natural dye extracted from the rhizome of Curcuma longa L. were applied to bamboo yarns using exhaustion dyeing process. This study investigates the dyeing behaviour of Curcumin; the major color component isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma longa L.on bamboo yarn. Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models were used to test the adsorption process of curcumin on bamboo yarn. Comparison of regression coefficient value indicated that the Freundlich isotherm most fitted to the adsorption of curcumin onto bamboo yarn. Furthermore, the kinetics study on this research fitted the pseudo-second order model which indicates that the basis of interaction was chemical adsorption.
