Chitosan‐Carbon Dot Composite Materials Form a Leaf Surface Barrier to Mitigate the Enrichment and Invasion of Nanoplastics: From Leaf Interface to Systemic Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Foliar spraying of CS‐CDs can form a film on the leaves of Brassica rapa, effectively reducing the enrichment and absorption of PS in the leaves, while increasing the biomass and nutrient content of the plants. In addition, CS‐CDs can also enrich the interfoliar microbial community and activate the plant's own defense metabolic pathways.

New natural carotenoid sources. V. Chlorophyll and carotenoid content of Beta vulgaris

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 1989
Chlorophylls and carotenoid pigments were investigated in leaves of beet (Beta vulgaris L.) obtained from SDE Cluj-Napoca, harvested in September 1987. Leaves had a higher content both in chlorophylls and carotenoids than petioles.
