“…Likewise, nano-silicon as well as nano zinc oxide were capable of improving salt resistance in some plants (Sedghi et al, 2013 andKalteh et al, 2014). Taran et al (2017) recorded an increase of carotenoid content in the leaves of winter wheat seedlings grown from seeds treated with zinc and copper nanoparticles after drought action which demonstrates the well-known adaptation mechanism. In contrast to this view, there was no significant change in carotenoid contents of wheat leaves in response to either salt stress or AgNPspriming.…”

T HE PRESENT study investigated the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Capparis spinosa extract as reducing and stabilizing agent. The biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized by UV-vis spectrophotometer and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. The shape and size of the biosynthesized AgNPs were studied using transmission electron microscope (TEM). The study also investigated whether the biosynthesized AgNPs (as a priming agent; 1 mg L-1) has a role in the alleviation of the salt-induced toxicity of germinating Triticum aestivum L. grains grown under salt stress (25 and 100 mM NaCl). Generally, AgNPs priming stimulate the germination and growth of wheat grains. In addition, it affects the plant phytohormones balance by stimulating indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), 1-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) contents and reducing abscicic acid (ABA) content. Slat stress had an inhibitory effect on wheat seedling as evident by a significant decrease in GP, growth index, pigment contents and chlorophyll stability index (CSI), auxins and cytokinins contents and a marked increase in ABA content particularly at 100 mM NaCl. All these parameters were markedly improved by AgNPs priming notably growth parameters and photosynthetic efficiency as well phtyohormones balance suggesting that AgNPs priming might has a role in the improvement of plant tolerance against environmental stresses such as salinity.

“…Recently, plant breeders have become interested in agricultural nanotechnology, which can be defined as the application of nanoparticles (NP) which may have some beneficial effects to the crops, with its tools to enhance productivity and tolerance to various biotic and abiotic stresses tolerance [138]. Three advantages of using nanotechnology are: they are cheap, of low consumption, and of low phytotoxicity [139] though nanoparticles may have positive and negative biological effects based on their concentration [140]. Nanoparticles created by green synthesis, which is considered a natural repository of green elements in the form of animal-derived biomaterials, phytochemicals, and biomolecules of microbial or plant origin, have less toxic effects compared to those produced by chemical or physical synthesis [141].…”

Climate change is a major threat to most of the agricultural crops grown in tropical and sub-tropical areas globally. Drought stress is one of the consequences of climate change that has a negative impact on crop growth and yield. In the past, many simulation models were proposed to predict climate change and drought occurrences, and it is extremely important to improve essential crops to meet the challenges of drought stress which limits crop productivity and production. Wheat and barley are among the most common and widely used crops due to their economic and social values. Many parts of the world depend on these two crops for food and feed, and both crops are vulnerable to drought stress. Improving drought stress tolerance is a very challenging task for wheat and barley researchers and more research is needed to better understand this stress. The progress made in understanding drought tolerance is due to advances in three main research areas: physiology, breeding, and genetic research. The physiology research focused on the physiological and biochemical metabolic pathways that plants use when exposed to drought stress. New wheat and barley genotypes having a high degree of drought tolerance are produced through breeding by making crosses from promising drought-tolerant genotypes and selecting among their progeny. Also, identifying genes contributing to drought tolerance is very important. Previous studies showed that drought tolerance is a polygenic trait and genetic constitution will help to dissect the gene network(s) controlling drought tolerance. This review explores the recent advances in these three research areas to improve drought tolerance in wheat and barley.

“…Rizwan et al (2019) stated that Zn NPs alleviated cadmium stress in wheat by enhancing growth, chlorophyll contents, gas exchange as well as curtailing the oxidative stress. Furthermore, zinc and copper nanoparticles promoted the drought resistance of two wheat cultivars at seedling stage via stabilizing the photosynthetic pigments, enhancing leaf water content, rising of antioxidative enzyme activity and slow down lipid peroxidation (Taran et al, 2017). Various studies recommended that ZnO NPs at a size lower than100 nm positively promoted biomass, yield, and nutrient content of many crops as cucumber (Zhao et al, 2013); peanuts (Prasad et al, 2012); cauliflower, cabbage, and tomato (Singh et al, 2013); and common chickpea (Pandey et al, 2010).…”

A B S T R A C TProspective involvement of metal oxide nanomaterials as a prominent agriculture practice for improving existing crop production directed the present investigation for synthesizing of ZnO and TiO 2 nanomaterials as an attempt to enhance the transplants production of some Solanaceae crops. The morphological characterizations of the prepared nanomaterials indicated that the hydrothermal synthesized ZnO was produced in nanorod structure with an average aspect ratio of 7. However, SEM and TEM micrographs of microwave prepared TiO 2 evident that it has a nanoparticle structure with an average diameter of 43 nm. The BET results confirmed the high specific areas of the two prepared metal oxide nanomaterials. The two synthesized metal oxide nanomaterials were coated in gel and mixed with the seeds of eggplant, pepper and tomato crops at four concentrations 0, 50, 100 and 150 mg/L, whilst the control seeds were germinated in distilled water without gel-coating. The results pointed to the outstanding effect of TiO 2 and ZnO nanoparticles on germination characters and seedlings growth. The maximum transplants lengths, fresh and dry weight were recorded at the level 100 mg/L whatever the crop plant used. Hastening germination operation of nanomaterials-gel coated seedlings compared to control plants may be ascribed to the reduction of mean germination time and coefficient variation of the germination process besides increasing the mean germination rate and the synchrony of germination traits. Overall, better performance of growing transplants has been accredited for nanoparticles-gel coated seedlings more than the control treatments which could be efficient for the safer production of transplants in an innovative way.
