Nanocrystalline metals effect on ecological-biological status of soil and biologically active compounds accumulation in plants
Abstract
The preplant vetch and rape seeds treatment by aqueous solution of nanocrystalline ferrum, cobalt and cuprum in ultrafine state increased the plants coming-up and influenced the chemical composition of the aerial parts. The one-off seeds treatment increased protein content and led to the quantitative change of plants carbohydrate content. The seeds treatment did not increase metal content in the plants and soil.
