The application of compost and metallic nanoparticles has a significant impact on the productivity and chemical composition of horticulture plants. In two subsequent growing seasons, 2020 and 2021, the productivity of Asclepias curassavica L. plants treated with various concentrations of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and compost was assessed. In the pot experiments, the soil was amended with 25% or 50% compost, and the plants were sprayed with 10, 20, and 30 mg/L of AgNPs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were used to characterize AgNPs. The TEM measurements of AgNPs showed that the particles had spherical forms and ranged in size from roughly 5 to 16 nm. Leaf methanol extracts (LMEs) were prepared from the treated plants and assayed against the growth of two soft rot bacteria, Dickeya solani and Pectobacterium atrosepticum. The maximum plant height, diameter, number of branches/plant, total fresh weight (g), total dry weight (g), and leaf area (cm2) was recorded when levels of 25% compost + AgNPs 20 mg/L, 25% compost, or 50% + AgNPs 20 mg/L, 25% compost + AgNPs 30 mg/L or 50% compost + AgNPs 20 mg/L, 50% compost + AgNPs 20 mg/L, 50% compost + AgNPs 30 or 20 mg/L, and 25% compost + AgNPs 30 mg/L, respectively, were applied. The plants treated with 25% or 50% compost + 30 mg/L AgNPs showed a high chlorophyll content, while the plants treated with 50% compost + AgNPs 30 mg/L or 20 mg/L showed the highest extract percentages. The highest inhibition zones (IZs), 2.43 and 2.2 cm, against the growth of D. solani were observed in the LMEs (4000 mg/L) extracted from the plants treated with compost (v/v) + AgNPs (mg/L) at the levels of 50% + 30 and 25% + 30, respectively. The highest IZs, 2.76 and 2.73 cm, against the growth of P. atrosepticum were observed in the LMEs (4000 mg/L) extracted from the plants treated at the levels of 50% + 30 and 25% + 30, respectively. Several phenolic compounds such as syringic acid, p-coumaric acid, chlorogenic acid, cinnamic acid, ellagic acid, caffeic acid, benzoic acid, gallic acid, ferulic acid, salicylic acid, pyrogallol, and catechol, as well as flavonoid compounds such as 7-hydroxyflavone, naringin, rutin, apigenin, quercetin, kaempferol, luteolin, hesperidin, catechin, and chrysoeriol, were identified in the LMEs as analyzed by HPLC with different concentrations according to the treatment of compost + AgNPs used for the plants. In conclusion, the specific criteria that were utilized to measure the growth of A. curassavica revealed the novelty of compost and AgNPs combination treatments, particularly at a concentration of 50% compost + AgNPs 30 mg/L or 20 mg/L, which is better for the growth and phytochemical production of A. curassavica in the field.

“…After the extraction, the materials obtained were filtrated using filter paper (Whatman no. 1) and the methanol extracts (MEs) then poured into Petri dishes to complete the dryness and then concentrated [39]. MEs were prepared at the concentrations of 4000, 2000, 1000, 500, and 250 mg/L by dissolving them in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (10% DMSO).…”

The biomass production from Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit (family Fabaceae) is a valuable source for chemical biorefinery. The bioactive molecules from the methanol extracts (MEs) from various parts of L. leucocephala grown in Egypt were evaluated. The antibacterial activity against the growth of Erwinia amylovora, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and Staphylococcus aureus was determined by the inhibition zones (IZs) and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs). The antifungal activity against the growth of Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium solani, and Alternaria solani was recorded by measuring the fungal growth inhibition (FGI %) and MICs. The phytochemical compounds in the MEs were identified by HPLC–DAD, where the higher compounds identified (mg/kg ME) in seeds were benzoic acid (1520.44), myricetin (848.73), and rosmarinic acid (792.46); in roots, were benzoic acid (554.04), naringenin (419.99), and myricetin (205.51); in leaves were rosmarinic acid (4768.16), resveratrol (2983.99), quercetin (2052.43), myricetin (1432.63), and naringenin (1182.39); in branches, were rosmarinic acid (2230.26), resveratrol (1605.3), o-coumaric acid (691.16), and myricetin (681.93); in fruits were rosmarinic acid (431.43) and resveratrol (261.07); in stem-wood, were ellagic acid (1319.75), p-coumaric acid (1051.59), and ferulic acid (512.45); and in stem-bark, were resveratrol (1079.01), benzoic acid (1071.11), and catechol (305.51). The MEs at the concentration of 4000 mg/L from stem-wood, leaves, and stem-bark, the higher IZs against the growth of E. amylovora, A. tumefaciens, and S. aureus with values of 4.06 cm, 2.5 cm, and 2.63 cm, respectively, were found. The range of MICs values of MEs was 75–500 mg/L, 75–125 mg/L, and 75–125 mg/L, against the growth of A. tumefaciens, E. amylovora, and S. aureus, respectively. MEs prepared from seeds, fruits (pod), and stem-bark at 4000 mg/L showed the higher FGI (100%) against the growth of A. solani; MEs from seeds and branches observed the higher FGI values of 63.83% and 63.6%, respectively, against the growth of F. solani, and all MEs showed potent antifungal activity (FGI 100%) against R. solani except for leaf ME (88.06%). MICs were in the range of 250–500, 250–500, and 500–1000 mg/L against A. solani, F. solani, and R. solani, respectively. At 500 mg/L, the roots ME showed the highest total antioxidant activity (94.30%) compared to vitamin C (VC) (98.30%) at 100 mg/L. The EC50 values of the MEs from seeds, fruits, stem-bark, branches, stem-wood, leaves, and roots were 424.24 mg/L, 131.40 mg/L, 341.78 mg/L, 380.50 mg/L, 153.59 mg/L, 153.59 mg/L, and 129.89 mg/L compared with VC (6.88 mg/L). In conclusion, the botanical parts of L. leucocephala have several bioactive compounds, which can act as promising antimicrobial and antioxidant properties.

The actinomycete strain HSN-02 was isolated from the soil of a mining field in the Sandur region, Bellary, Karnataka, India. According to the morphological, cultural, physiological, and biochemical characteristics and the 16S rDNA sequence analysis, the strain HSN-02 was identified as Amycolatopsis sp. The antimicrobial activity strain HSN-02 presented stable and moderate inhibitory activity against human pathogens. In pot experiments in the greenhouse, the development of Cercospora leaf spot was markedly suppressed by treatment with the purified compound from the strain HSN-02, and the control efficacy was 45.04 ± 1.30% in Septoria lycopersici-infected tomato plants. A prominent compound was obtained from the fermentation broth of the strain HSN-02 using column chromatography and HPLC. The chemical structural analyses using UV, FTIR, HR-ESI-MS, and NMR confirmed that the compound produced by the strain HSN-02 is 7-hydroxyflavone. This investigation showed the role which the actinomycete strain can play in controlling leaf spots caused by S. lycopersici to reduce treatments with chemical fungicides.
