Nanotechnology is a research subject in many interdisciplinary engineering fields today. Nanoparticles have important effects on seed germination and seedling growth of plants. The aim of this study has been to produce a 54.68 nm-sized ZnO nanoparticle obtained from the Nigella sativa L. plant by green synthesis. The effect of medicinal sage (Salvia officinalis L.) on germination of plant seeds and seedling growth was investigated. The trial was set up under controlled conditions and conducted for 14 days according to a factorial trial design with 5 replications for each dose (0, 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5 mg ZnO NP kg-1). As a result of ZnO NP application in different doses, germination of Salvia officinalis L. seeds varied between 90-94%, stem length was 1.86-2.92 cm and shoot length was between 1.01-1.98 cm. The highest root and shoot length was obtained after the application of 2.5 mg ZnO kg-1 NP. In the light of the results, ZnO nanoparticles are thought to be useful for seed development and agricultural applications.
Evaluation of Some Black Cumin Seed (Nigella sativa L.) Genotypes in Terms of Quality Parameters at Different Planting Periods Under Mardin Ecological Conditions
(Univ Quindio, 2023) Gunes, Zubeyir; Toncer, Ozlem
This research was carried out with 3 repetitions according to the randomized blocks trial design in winter and summer planting periods of 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 in order to determine the agronomic and quality characteristics of some black cumin genotypes at different sowing periods under Mardin ecological conditions. cameli variety and 18 different black cumin seed genotypes were used in the study and some quality parameters were examined. According to the results obtained from the research, it was determined that fatty oil ratio varied between 32.45-39.02% and fatty oil yield varied between 12.94-42.72 kg da-1 in winter planting. In summer planting; fatty oil ratio ranged between 33.99-38.13% and fatty oil yield ranged between 9.69-25.18 kg da-1. As a result of the study, it was determined that Eskisehir-5 (G9) genotype performed better than other varieties and genotypes in terms of fatty oil yield under Mardin ecological conditions. Due to the early increase in temperature in Mardin conditions, quality parameters decreased in summer planting compared to winter planting. Therefore, winter planting is recommended as the most suitable planting time for black cumin cultivation under Mardin conditions.

The emergence of antibiotic resistance, caused by the improper use of antibiotics, is a significant challenge in combating infectious diseases, leading to millions of annual fatalities. The occurrence of antimicrobial side effects catalyzes the investigation of novel antimicrobial compounds and sources of drugs. Consequently, the research on biological activity that is conducted on plants, plant extracts, and compounds that are produced from plant components is of utmost significance. In this study, CtAC/MNPs were obtained by the reaction of activated carbon (AC) obtained from the fruits of the Celtis tournefortii (Ct) plant and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), and a CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposite was synthesized by the reduction in silver ions added to the reaction. The synthesized CtAC/MNPs and CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposites were analyzed spectroscopically (FTIR, XRD), microscopically (SEM, EDX), optically (DLS), electrochemically (zeta potential) and magnetically (VSM). The antibacterial activities of CtAC/MNPs and CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposites against S. aureus and E. coli were investigated by microdilution method using minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and disk diffusion methods. Antioxidant activity study, including total phenolic content and DPPH and cuprac assays, revealed the remarkable effect of the CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposite. This study has the advantages of obtaining CtAC/MNPs and CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposites in a short time without requiring energy, and most importantly, the reaction takes place without using any toxic substances. In addition, according to the data obtained in the study, the CtAC/MNPs-Ag nanocomposite is thought to shed light on biomedical research.
