Hydroponique
L'hydroponie révolutionne la croissance des plantes en utilisant des solutions aqueuses riches en minéraux au lieu de la terre.

L'hydroponie assure le développement des plantes grâce à l'immersion continue ou intermittente de leurs racines dans des solutions aqueuses enrichies en minéraux. Cette technique utilise des substrats inertes ou des plans d'eau statiques pour stabiliser la rhizosphère, s'affranchissant ainsi des exigences liées à la culture traditionnelle en sol. propriété intellectuelle et la littérature scientifique privilégie les nutriments Film Hydraulique de la technique NFT, oxygénation de la culture en eau profonde (DWC) et intégration d'électrodes sélectives aux ions.

Cet index répertorie les informations techniques relatives à l'architecture des systèmes de recirculation, à la porosité du substrat et à l'épaisseur du film nutritif. Ces avancées permettent d'optimiser l'absorption des minéraux et l'utilisation de l'eau en milieu contrôlé. Les fiches suivantes documentent les progrès réalisés en matière de régulation automatisée du pH, de surveillance de la conductivité électrique et d'ingénierie hydraulique pour l'aquaculture à l'échelle commerciale.

Effects of Polypropylene Microplastics and Copper Contamination on Rice Seedling Growth

Published on 2026-02-02 by Ziwen Hao, Steven Xu, Siquan Huang, Lin Wang @MDPI

Abstract: This study investigates the effects of polypropylene microplastics (PP-MPs) and copper (Cu), applied individually and in combination, on the growth (root and shoot length, fresh and dry biomass), peroxidase (POD) activity, and Cu accumulation of rice seedlings. A hydroponic experiment was conducted with four treatments: control (CK), PP, Cu, and PP+Cu. Exposure to PP-MPs slightly promoted seedling growth, whereas Cu markedly inhibited growth and induced chlorosis. Compared with Cu alone, co-expo[...]


Our summary: This study examines the effects of polypropylene microplastics and copper on rice seedling growth. Exposure to microplastics promoted growth slightly, while copper inhibited it and caused chlorosis.

Published on 2026-02-01 by Wendong Zhang, Caiyu Wang, Yiman Li, Qinghai He @MDPI

Abstract: Amid global freshwater scarcity and soil salinization, brackish irrigation is a potential alternative, yet its effects under low-leaching soilless systems remain unclear. We tested brackish irrigation (30 mmol L&amp;minus;1 NaCl; EC &amp;asymp; 4.8 dS m&amp;minus;1, including fertilizer) on lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) grown in peat&amp;ndash;perlite substrates with non-saline (CK), mildly saline (M), and moderately&amp;ndash;severely saline (S) initial salinity. Substrate moi[...]


Our summary: Brackish irrigation affects salt transport in saline-alkali peat-perlite substrates. Lettuce growth is minimally impacted under non-saline and mildly saline conditions but significantly reduced in moderately-severely saline environments.
