Zinc ferrite nanoparticles of different crystallite size ranging from 13 to 61 nm were irradiated with 200 MeV Ag1 5+ at three different fluences viz. 1 Â 10 12 , 2 Â 10 12 and 4 Â 10 12 ions/cm 2. Raman spectra of pristine samples exhibit the bands corresponding to Fd3m space group. These bands also appears in the spectra of irradiated samples, however their position is slightly shifted. Similar behaviour was also observed for the bands appearing in Fourier-transform infrared spectra. These bands broaden after irradiation. These changes have been attributed to the damage/crystalline disorder produced by swift heavy ion and the appropriate mechanism has been discussed in this regard.

The main objective of the current work was to assess the impact of the genotype and inoculation on range of morphological and yield traits of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill), as well as the total protein content. The experiment was conducted on chernozem soil, where soybean was previously grown. The six local varieties were used, where each variety was sown, in three replicates for both inoculated and non-inoculated treatment. The following morphological traits were analysed: the plant height, number of lateral branches, distance to the first pod, number of pods per plant, pods (containing seeds) weight per plant, seed weight per plant, and the total grain yield. The total protein content in seeds was determined by standard analytical method, while subtle differences in qualitative protein composition were assessed using Raman spectroscopy. The total protein content varied from...

Two-year field study was conducted with aim to determine the range of compensatory effect (CE) based on stem dry matter remobilization in defoliated (10 days after anthesis) and intact plants of 61 wheat (Triticum aestivum L) genotypes included three groups: 17 standard genotypes, 27 F4: 5 families and 17 parent genotypes (only second season) used to make F4: 5 families. Agronomical, morphological and anatomical traits which influence the CE were analysed. Over two seasons CE was affected by environmental conditions. On average across standards and F4: 5 families CE was higher in the first season when mean stress intensity index of 0.145 (quantified as mild stress) was lower than 0.278 (quantified as moderate stress) obtained for the second season. Genotypes with higher number of spikelets and grains per spike, as well later flowering showed be yield loss compensation....

At maturity, PRD and DI have differ in effects on the outer layers: under PRD cells in most cell layers reached a similar final size as in Fl treatment, while in DI cell grew slower and reached smaller cell size than<strong><em> </em></strong>in Fl.

The impact of individual components (protein, alginate and oil) as well as the effect of heat-induced protein denaturation, was resolved regarding physicochemical, thermal and morphological properties of powders. High product yield (∼100%), particle size (223-257 nm), low moisture content (0.10-0.13%) and zeta potential (-19 to -25.6 mV) were determined for all samples. Strong antimicrobial activity of thyme oil nanocarriers against foodborne pathogens was demonstrated. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated enhanced thermal stability of encapsulated oil. The most specific bands of structural compounds were identified in Raman spectra of the tested formulations, but principal component analysis (PCA) on recorded spectra was necessary to show the differences between carriers of different wall materials.
