Seed priming with selenium: Effects on germination, seedling growth, biochemical attributes, and grain yield in rice growing under flooding conditions

Feng-Qin Hu et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of seed priming with selenium on the germination and growth of rice under hypoxia. The results showed that selenium promoted seed germination and increased seedling growth and yield, but high selenium concentrations increased the risk of seedling death during long-term flooding.

Southeast Asia must narrow down the yield gap to continue to be a major rice bowl

Shen Yuan et al.

Summary: Southeast Asia is a major rice-producing region, but there are significant yield gaps among countries. Cambodia, Myanmar, Philippines, and Thailand have relatively large exploitable yield gaps, while Indonesia and Vietnam have smaller gaps. To ensure a large rice surplus in the future, it is important to substantially narrow down the exploitable yield gap within the next 20 years.

Low seed moisture and polythene packaging improve storability of seed paddy

A. A. C. B. Alahakoon et al.

Summary: The study found that storing rice seeds in polythene material with 11% seed moisture content at packing can maintain seed germination and vigor during storage for the longest duration. This is a better alternative to commonly used poly-sack material and 13% seed moisture content.

Steady agronomic and genetic interventions are essential for sustaining productivity in intensive rice cropping

Jagdish K. Ladha et al.

Summary: Intensive rice cropping systems account for a significant portion of irrigated rice production in Asia. While adjustments in management practices and regular cultivar replacements have sustained production levels over time, the systems have struggled to achieve further yield increases to meet global rice demand under changing climate conditions.

Priming with zinc oxide nanoparticles improve germination and photosynthetic performance in wheat

Prabha Rai-Kalal et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated the beneficial effects of seed priming with zinc oxide nanoparticles on the germination performance and photosynthetic pigment content of wheat seeds. Nanopriming enhanced seed water uptake and overall primary photochemistry, leading to increased activity enzymes and decreased oxidative status in plants. This is the first report showing ZnO NPs as a promising seed priming agent to improve germination and photosynthetic performance of wheat seeds.

Effects of different mechanical direct seeding methods on grain yield and lodging resistance of early indica rice in South China

Wang Wen-xia et al.

Summary: The study found that annual grain yield in DDS was higher than in WDS and FDS, mainly due to improvements in panicles. DDS significantly increased seedling emergence rate and promoted total dry weight and crop growth rate of early indica rice cultivars. Shorter basal internodes, better stem diameter and wall thickness, and lower lodging index were observed in DDS compared to FDS and WDS, indicating an improvement in stem lodging resistance.

Nanopriming with phytosynthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles for promoting germination and starch metabolism in rice seeds

Deepa Sharma et al.

Summary: The green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using Senna occidentalis leaf extract showed significant enhancement in germination performance and seedling vigor of aged rice seeds. The treatment with ZnO NPs increased parameters such as dry weight, seed water uptake, radicle length, plumule length, seed fresh weight, soluble sugar content, amylase activity, and antioxidant enzyme activity. Seed priming with ZnO NPs proved to be an innovative and effective approach for enhancing the germination rate, starch metabolism, and zinc acquisition of aged rice seeds.

Recent Advances in Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) for Cancer Diagnosis, Target Drug Delivery, and Treatment

Sumaira Anjum et al.

Summary: Despite advancements in medicine, cancer remains a deadly and somber disease caused by uncontrolled cell proliferation. Traditional medications and chemotherapies have limitations such as reduced bioavailability and significant side effects. Nanotechnology has rapidly evolved and offers potential in healthcare, with nanoscale materials showing promise in cancer treatment due to their low risk. Zinc oxide nanoparticles have demonstrated their potential in diagnosing and treating various cancers due to their biocompatibility and unique properties. Their ability to induce reactive oxygen species in cancer cells, leading to apoptosis, makes them effective in targeted drug delivery.
