Zinc Sulphate and Nano-Zinc Oxide Effects on Some Physiological Parameters of Rosmarinus officinalis

Abstract: In the present study, the effects of foliar application of zinc sulphate and nano-zinc oxide on physiological indices (chlorophyll and carotenoids content, antioxidant activity, total phenolic content, proline, lipid peroxidation and sugar) of rosemary were evaluated. Greenhouse cultivation experiment in a randomized complete block with three levels of foliar zinc and three levels of foliar nano-zinc oxide and control treatment, each with three replications, was carried out. The results showed that low concent… Show more

“…In the mean time, there was gradual increase with increasing nano-micronutrients concentrations in the above mentioned parameters. These results coincided with those reported by Mohsenzadeh and Moosavian (2017) on rosemary, Rezaei-Chiyaneh et al (2018) on black cumin and Sabet and Mortazaeinezhad (2018) on cumin plants.…”

“…Zn is a vital component for the development of protochlorophyllide and improves the chloroplast functioning and helps in repairs of photosystem II [29]. An enhancement in carotenoid contents may be related to the response of plants to oxidative damage [30]. The antioxidant enzymes CAT, POD and SOD, scavenge ROS-in plants and supply protection and defense to plant cells from the oxidative stress of reactive free radicals [31].…”

“…It was hypothesized that ZnO-NPs involved in the rise of plant chlorophyll-and exceedingly efficient in the synthesis of photosynthetic pigments that increased photosynthesis rate [35]. It might be because nanoparticles are powerful amplifiers of photosynthetic effectiveness that in parallel cause light absorption by chlorophyll, as it causes convey of energy to nanoparticles from chlorophyll [36]. As observed in this work, the higher contents of carotenoids and anthocyanins formed by AgNPs exposure might be because of higher oxidative stress caused by AgNPs.…”
