It was shown that metal nanoparticles due to their physical properties (nanoscale and uncharged state) were capable of penetrating rapidly into plant cells and optimizing plant metabolic processes at the early stages of growth and development.

Colloidal solutions of biogenic metals, water-based, such as Fe, Mn, Zn, Mo, Co, Cu, and Ag, produced by a patented method of bittern natural colloidal solutions of the above metals were used. Seed treatment with colloidal solution of metal nanoparticles stored genetic purity grade, increased plant immune status via regulation of oxidative metabolism, photosynthetic activity, resistance to pathogens, and optimization of water regime of various winter wheat ecotypes during ontogenesis. Results of industrial tests proved that it is environmentally safe and economically feasible, since the cost of one liter of colloidal solutions of nanoparticles of metals ranges from 50-70 USD providing 500% level profitability. So, for the first time managed to optimize the function of biogenic metals through the use of physical and chemical characteristics of colloidal nanoparticle solutions to realize the productive potential of plants.

MGDG and DGDG occur in all higher plants and are the predominant lipid components of chloroplast membranes. The third glycolipid is sulfolipid sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol (SQDG) with a sulfonic acid derivative of glucose. They are thought to be of major importance to chloroplast morphology and physiology, although direct experimental evidence is still lacking. . The glycerolipid DGDG is exclusively associated with photosynthetic membranes and thus may play a role in the proper assembly and maintenance of the photosynthetic apparatus . Bearing in mind that oxidative stress is a component part of the reaction of plants to many other stresses, any changes in lipid composition are of special significance. Data available evidence that oxidative processes induced by high concentration of ozone affect glycolipid composition. observed marked decreases in these galactolipids, which started within 2 hours of the onset of ozone exposure. Loss of MGDG was more rapid than that of DGDG, resulting in a significant reduction of MGDG/DGDG ratio in spinach and snapbean ) at least. T.Sakaki considers the first phase of the injury development to continue for the initial 8 h of exposure. A little loss of pigments and lipids (MGDG significantly and DGDG slightly) accompanied by slight increase of MDA content take place while this period. However, marked oxidation of ascorbate and inactivation superoxidismutase (SOD) and ascorbate peroxidase (AP) have already occurred during this period. The second phase characterised by massive destruction of pigments and lipids starts with drastic fall of MGDG and less sharp decrease of DGDG accompanied by significant increase of TG, 1,2-DG and MDA . But it is interesting that anionic lipid -SQDG and PI -amounts were stable while the time of exposure (in spinach leaves, at least). Lipid changes similar to those in spinach were also observed in several plant species, and in broad bean leaves the SQDG increase took place. Oxidative stress induced fall of both GL (MGDG especially drastic) content while SQDG l evel was stable in a number of plants. As a result SQDG content relative to glycolipid quantity increased by 7-45% (depending upon species) . But results obtained by with garden pea evidence that moderately enhanced ozone level caused large decreases not only in the contents of MGDG and DGDG, but in SQDG also. Compared with charcoalfiltered air, fumigation with ozone resulted in decreased 18:3 and increased 18:2 in MGDG and SQDG, while the fatty acid composition of DGDG was unaffected. Concerning the molecular bases of these structural changes suggested that the primary reaction of ozone is the stimulation of galactolipase activity resulting in the enhanced production of free fatty acid in chloroplasts. It is considered that an increase in galactolipase activity is a general feature in response to ozone. demonstrated that ozone stimulated degradation of galactolipids in garden pea leaves probably by galactolipase without effects on the de nova lipid synthesis. Besides, it is well-known that galactolipids as unsaturated compounds are good substrate for forming peroxidation products observed at ozone action . Therefore it seems to be worthwhile to explore various tension

It is synthesised mainly in the inner envelope membrane. The formation of C-S seems to begin at the C6-level with UDP-glucose or UDP-galactose acting as precursors. During ageing SQDG is degraded to inorganic sulfate which is then reutilized. SQDG is associated with purified chloroplast CF 0 -CF 1 ATPase, the LHC II-apoproteins, and native D1/D2 heterodimer. SQDG changed in quantity and quality during low and high temperature, drought, salinity stress, CO 2 stress and infection, indicating a function in stress reactions.
