Abstract Worldwide, 40% population consumes wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as a staple food
that is low in zinc (Zn) content. Zn deficiency is a major micronutrient disorder in crop plants …

In this work, selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) stabilized with cocamidopropyl betaine were
synthesized for the first time. It was observed that Se NPs synthesized in excess of selenic …

Malnutrition is mainly caused by iron and zinc micronutrient deficiencies affecting about half
of the world's population across the globe. Biofortification of staple crops is the right …

Irrigated agricultural lands are prone to salinity problems which may imperil horticultural
crops by reducing growth, yield and even qualitative traits. Eco-friendly approaches such as …

The purpose of this work was to study the effect of selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) on the
biological and morphofunctional parameters of barley seeds (Hordéum vulgáre L.) We used …

The present experiment addressed the effects of different iron (Fe) concentrations in the
nutrient solution supplied as Fe-HBED, ie, 0.02 (Fe0, control), 1.02 (Fe1), and 2.02 mmol L …

Mapping of soil micronutrient variability is critical for improving agronomic biofortification.
This study used 1778 surface soil samples collected from four agro-climatic regions of the …

Microgreens represent a new generation of food products, commonly used to garnish and
embellish culinary dishes, and recently associated with an increasing interest in their …

Due to the global rise in food insecurity, micronutrient deficiency, and diet-related health
issues, the United Nations (UN) has called for action to eradicate hunger and malnutrition …
