RESUMEN
Lavandula angustifolia Mill. is an aromatic herb of the Lamiaceae family, which has been widely used by humans for many centuries. In the current study, we treated L. angustifolia samples with various concentrations of ZnO and Fe2O3 nanoparticles in the presence/ absence of NaCl salinity stress to evaluate the composition of essential oils, genetic structure, glandular trichome density and cellular Zn2+ and Fe2+ contents. We used Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) molecular markers to investigate the parameters of genetic diversity among the treated samples. Furthermore, the hydro-distilled essential oil from the aerial parts of the samples was subjected to GC and GC / MS analyses. SPSS ver. 15, PAST, PopGene, and GenAlex software were employed for statistical analyses. Intracellular concentrations of Fe2+ and Zn2+ differed under various concentrations of nanoparticles and salinity treatments, and a significant negative correlation was observed between these elements, however, nanoparticles treatment significantly increased intracellular concentrations of iron and zinc ions. We found four types of glandular trichomes on the surface of the leaf of the treated plants, and the ANOVA test revealed a significant variation for most of them. Meanwhile, the short-stalked capitate trichomes were the most frequent in most of the evaluated samples. The main and trace essential oil compounds were the same among the treated plants, meanwhile, their percentages varied among the samples. The percentages of 1,8- cineole and camphor decreased in treated plants, which affects the quality of essential oils. Parameters of genetic diversity differed among the treated samples. Furthermore, the AMOVA test demonstrated a significant genetic variation that its substantial part belonged to among treated samples. These findings revealed that the treatment of nanoparticles and salinity stress strongly influenced the genetic diversity, trichomes density, iron and zinc ions content in lavender plants.

Lavandula angustifolia Mill. é uma erva aromática da família Lamiaceae, que tem sido amplamente utilizada pelo homem há muitos séculos. No presente estudo, tratamos amostras de L. angustifolia com várias concentrações de nanopartículas de ZnO e Fe2O3 na presença/ausência de estresse salino de NaCl para avaliar a composição de óleos essenciais, estrutura genética, densidade de tricomas glandulares e teores celulares de Zn2+ e Fe2+. Usamos marcadores moleculares Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) para investigar os parâmetros de diversidade genética entre as amostras tratadas. Além disso, o óleo essencial hidrodestilado das partes aéreas das amostras foi submetido às análises de GC e GC/MS. SPSS ver. 15, os softwares PAST, PopGene e GenAlex foram empregados para análises estatísticas. As concentrações intracelulares de Fe2+ e Zn2+ diferiram sob várias concentrações de nanopartículas e tratamentos de salinidade, e uma correlação negativa significativa foi observada entre esses elementos. No entanto, o tratamento com nanopartículas aumentou significativamente as concentrações intracelulares de íons de ferro e zinco. Encontramos quatro tipos de tricomas glandulares na superfície da folha das plantas tratadas, e o teste ANOVA revelou uma variação significativa para a maioria deles. Enquanto isso, os tricomas capitados de haste curta foram os mais frequentes na maioria das amostras avaliadas. Os compostos do óleo essencial principal e traço foram os mesmos entre as plantas tratadas, entretanto, seus percentuais variaram entre as amostras. As porcentagens de 1,8-cineol e cânfora diminuíram nas plantas tratadas, o que afeta a qualidade dos óleos essenciais. Os parâmetros de diversidade genética diferiram entre as amostras tratadas. Além disso, o teste AMOVA demonstrou uma variação genética significativa que sua parte substancial pertencia entre as amostras tratadas. Esses achados revelaram que o tratamento de nanopartículas e o estresse salino influenciaram fortemente a diversidade genética, densidade de tricomas, teor de íons ferro e zinco em plantas de lavanda.
