Foliar application of nanoparticles: mechanisms of absorption, transfer, and multiple impacts

, 2021
Foliar spray of NPs is more effective than root/soil application, but potential human exposure and plant toxicity should be addressed.

Foliar application and seed priming of salicylic acid affect growth, fruit yield, and quality of grape tomato under drought stress

, 2021
Drought, an acute abiotic stress, limits growth and yields of crops including tomato. Salicylic acid (SA) has been widely used as an abiotic stress mitigating agent in various crops. Two experiments were conducted to assess the effects of SA applied as a

Foliar manganese application to soybeans

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1987
Abstract Manganese (Mn) deficiency symptoms in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] frequently are apparent during early growth stages on Mn deficient soils. Foliar application is commonly used to correct Mn deficiency. Information on Mn sources, application rates, and methods of application is needed for Mn deficient soils.

Foliar application of urea to potatoes

American Potato Journal, 1958
The results showed that foliar application of urea is an effective means of supplying part of the nitrogen for Katahdin potatoes under Connecticut conditions. Foliar applications of urea can be used as a means of supplying additional nitrogen, when the plants are too large to be side-dressed.

Concepts and applications of foliar spray for microbial inoculants

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018
Damages of the (agro)ecosystem by extensive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, the global dying of bee populations possibly linked to pesticide spraying, and stricter regulations for pesticide use together with successful use of microbials in IPM programs are pushing on the development and commercialization of new microbial products and a ...

Uptake and Translocation of Mesoporous SiO2-Coated ZnO Nanoparticles to Solanum lycopersicum Following Foliar Application.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2021
Nanoparticles composed of ZnO encapsulated in a mesoporous SiO2 shell (nZnO@SiO2) with a primary particle diameter of ∼70 nm were synthesized for delivery of Zn, a micronutrient, by foliar uptake.

Foliar application of sulfur improved growth, yield and physiological attributes of canola (brassica napus L.) under heat stress conditions

Journal of plant nutrition, 2021
Canola (Brassica napus) is a significant oilseed crop in the world, including in Pakistan. Increases in global temperatures will likely affect future plant species distribution, and could influence the survivability of individual species because of the ...

Evaluation of Adhesives for Foliar Application of Chemicals

Forest Science, 1968
Abstract Thirty-nine commercial adhesives were evaluated for their ability to form weather-resistant films for retaining chemical repellents on coniferous trees. Fifteen were rejected because of poor film retention in accelerated weathering tests or because they could not be formulated as 10-percent solids in ...
