“…A slight increase in the content of assimilation pigments in white goosefoot in relation to the controls when using the lowest concentration of the compound (100 mg · kg -1 of soil d.w.) can be associated with an increase in the content of carotenoids in these plants, which evidences about increased defense of the plants against stress. Carotenoids are one of the basic elements of the PSI and PSII protection systems against the harmful effect of reactive oxygen species [35][36][37].…”

Weeds constitute a huge group of undesirable plants, widespread throughout the world. They represent a big problem for most farmers, who implement different methods to fight against them. Thanks to their wide occurrence, weeds however, can be an excellent indicator of the quality of soil and the whole environment where they are present. In this paper, we present the impact of four alkylimidazolium chlorides with a natural terpene component introduced into the soil: (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-menthol and alkyl substituents containing 1, 4, 9 or 12 carbon atoms, on the growth and development of selected weed species. Compounds with the highest phytotoxic activity towards gallant soldier, white goosefoot and common sorrel were chlorides with methyl and butyl substituents, while compounds with nonyl and dodecyl substituents demonstrated a weak effect on these weeds. Phytotoxicity of the salts tested was largely dependent on the applied concentration of the compound and the genetic make-up of plant species used in the experiment. This was reflected in the inhibition of plants' length and their roots, as well as changes in the content of dry matter and photosynthetic pigments.

“…Activity of peroxidase may increase when the plants are subjected to pathogen or abiotic stress [26,27]. Biczak et al [28] confirmed that changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes, like peroxidase, may indicate the presence of oxidative stress in plants.…”

Cold stress modifies bioactive compounds of kale cultivars during fall–winter harvests

Kale is a plant known and valued since antiquity as a healthy vegetable crop, used for culinary, decorative, but also healing purposes. The aim of the study was to examine the effect of harvest date on physiological status and nutritional composition of two kale cultivars: 'Winterbor' F 1 (blue-green leaves) and 'Redbor' F 1 (red-purple leaves). The leaves were harvested in three periods: before frost (>0°C), after medium (−5.0°C) and heavy frost (−15.0°C). Content of dry weight, soluble sugars, l-ascorbic acid, carotenoids, chlorophylls, polyphenols, anthocyanins, as well as antioxidant activity and peroxidase activity were determined. Cold temperature significantly affected bioactive compounds of kale. The content of dry weight, soluble sugars, l-ascorbic acid, phenolics, and antioxidant activity increased after medium frosts for both cultivars. The level of anthocyanins also increased significantly for the 'Redbor' F 1 cultivar. After strong frost, most of the tested parameters (content of dry weight, soluble sugars, phenolics, anthocyanins, and total antioxidant and peroxidase activity) significantly increased. The chlorophyll a content was reduced by heavy frost in both seasons. Harvesting kale before and after frost may allow the level of biologically active ingredients to be regulated as cold also significantly affects the physiological status of the plants.

“…In the abovementioned papers, ILs’ phytotoxicity was determined primarily on the basis of plant growth inhibition, but as mentioned by Cvjetko Bubalo et al ( 2014a ), the IL toxicity mechanism has not yet been fully understood. Therefore, a view gains increasing popularity in scientific studies in which ILs’ phytotoxicity is related to the generation of oxidative stress in plants by these compounds (Liu et al 2013 , 2014 , 2015a , b , 2016a , b ; Biczak 2016 ; Biczak et al 2016a , 2016b ; Pawłowska and Biczak 2016 ).…”

The present study determines the influence of three ionic liquids (ILs) containing cations with diversified structure on the growth and development of spring barley seedlings and common radish leaves. Increasing amounts of 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium hexafluorophosphate [Pyrrol][PF6], 1-butyl-1-methylpiperidinium hexafluorophosphate [Piper][PF6], and 1-butyl-4-methylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate [Pyrid][PF6] were added to the soil on which both plants were cultivated. The results of this studies showed that the applied ILs were highly toxic for plants, demonstrated by the inhibition of length of plant shoots and roots, decrease of fresh mass, and increase of dry weight content. Common radish turned out to be the plant with higher resistance to the used ILs. The differences in the cation structure did not influence phytotoxity of ILs for spring barley. Furthermore, all ILs led to a decrease of photosynthetic pigments, which was directly followed by decreased primary production in plants. Oxidative stress in plants occurred due to the presence of ILs in the soil, which was demonstrated by the increase of malondialdehyde (MDA) content, changes in the H2O2 level, and antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and peroxidase (POD). The changes in the chlorophyll contents and the increase of POD activity turned out to be the most significant oxidative stress biomarkers in spring barley and common radish. Both spring barley and radish exposed to ILs accumulated a large amount of fluoride ion.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s11356-017-9439-x) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
