TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nanomaterial application, and more particularly to a plant-derived biological regulator delivery method based on a nano-carrier. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a natural, efficient and environmentally friendly agricultural input, plant-derived biological regulators are widely used in crop growth promotion, stress resistance induction and quality regulation. However, most of these regulators are unstable small molecular compounds, which are prone to degradation, adsorption and loss. When applied in complex soil conditions, they often face problems such as difficult dosage control, short time efficiency and high residue, which seriously limit their actual utilization efficiency and application value.
[0003] To improve the rhizosphere stability and spatial delivery efficiency of plant-derived biological regulators, nano-carriers are widely used for controlled release of plant-derived biological regulators. By adjusting the surface properties and release behavior of nano-structures, the theoretical "quantitative, timed and directional" precise delivery can be achieved. However, the existing delivery strategies based on nano-carriers have serious adaptability problems in real complex soil environments, especially in high mineralization and high colloidal soil areas, which gradually reveal the following non-negligible deep-seated problems: In soils with high clay content or rich in active colloidal minerals (such as montmorillonite, kaolin and iron ions), nano-carriers are prone to strong adsorption on the surface of minerals, resulting in a significant decrease in the release rate of plant-derived biological regulators loaded therein, and even a "release lock" phenomenon, which causes a large amount of regulators to be unable to release and remain in the soil pores for a long time during the first application. This retained dose not only reduces the utilization efficiency in the current season, but also causes "nano-residue superposition" problems in subsequent application cycles.
[0004] More seriously, in the second and multiple applications, the newly added nano-carriers interfere with the release of the residual regulators and cause response disorder. The release intensity in some areas is superimposed and increased, causing excessive dosage, while in other areas, the dosage remains blank, resulting in an uncontrollable soil hormone environment with "dose peaks" and "dose blanks" distributed alternately in the same plot, which induces serious differentiation of plant physiological responses, such as root overgrowth and twisting, leaf burning, fruit malformation, etc., which not only weakens the growth potential of crops, but also seriously disrupts the stability of the agricultural ecosystem. The superposition and amplification effect of nano-residue superposition and lock is a key technical difficulty that has not been fully solved in the field of agricultural nano-carrier controlled release. Therefore, the present application proposes a plant-derived biological regulator delivery method based on a nano-carrier to solve the above problems. SUMMARY
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present application provides the following technical scheme: The plant source biological regulator delivery method based on nano-carrier includes the following steps: A soil colloidal mineral distribution map is constructed, mineral types, distribution ranges, and adsorption strengths are obtained through a high-throughput soil spectrum acquisition method, a high adsorption area and a low release area are calibrated, and the division of the locked risk area is completed before application; The surface ligand structure of the nano-carrier located in the high adsorption area is modified, and desorbable molecular blocks with pH response or enzyme response characteristics are introduced to control the release rhythm after adsorption occurs and avoid dose lock phenomenon; According to the adsorption area division and release history data, the nano-carrier structure is controlled at multiple levels, the release path is dynamically adjusted, and the local dose difference is balanced through regional inhibition and nonlinear compensation; During the application process, fluorescent response or potential response type nano-probes are deployed near the plant roots to collect the spatial distribution of the regulator in the rhizosphere and the physiological response data of the plant, and the release behavior of the carrier and the soil adsorption characteristics are modeled to optimize the next round of delivery strategy and complete the closed-loop delivery control of the regulator across cycles.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, a light-sensitive or magnetic response marker is arranged outside the nano-carrier to identify the release state and distribution trajectory of the carrier in the historical application.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the step of constructing a soil colloidal mineral distribution map includes: Systematic point sampling is performed on the target agricultural land according to the preset grid size, visible light-near infrared (VIS-NIR) combined high-throughput scanning technology is used to obtain soil spectrum reflection data, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS) analysis are used to quantitatively verify the component content of various colloidal minerals in the sample, a fitting model between spectral bands and mineral components is established to calculate the colloidal mineral types and spatial distribution of each grid unit in the land; Based on the mineral type and component content results, a mineral type adsorption coefficient database is constructed, and a carrier release sensitive factor library is simultaneously established, the mineral type adsorption coefficient and the carrier release sensitive factor are integrated according to a preset proportion to form an adsorption interference index, which is used to describe the interference strength of a specific soil unit on the release behavior of the nano-carrier; The adsorption interference index is projected to the spatial grid, the grid is classified according to the set interference strength threshold, and preset type of topographic and hydrological parameters are introduced to screen the connectivity of high-interference grids, identify contiguous high-risk areas, and finally mark the high adsorption area and the low release area through spatial superposition and boundary tracking algorithm to complete the division of the locked risk area.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the mineral type adsorption coefficient refers to the maximum adsorption capacity of colloidal mineral per unit mass of plant-derived biological regulator, which is obtained by isothermal adsorption experiment, and the carrier release sensitivity factor reflects the release delay degree of different nano-carriers in the corresponding mineral environment, which is expressed by the release starting time delay ratio or the maximum release rate change rate.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the release rhythm control refers to: For the responsive molecular block on the surface of the nano-carrier, the time delay and release duration parameters required for setting the target release window are adjusted by adjusting the chain length of the block molecule to control its conformational stability and steric hindrance effect before being triggered by pH or enzyme signal to delay the starting point of release; By adjusting the crosslinking density in the molecular block, the unzipping rate and load diffusion rate of the carrier when responding to environmental changes are adjusted, and high crosslinking state is used to prolong the release process and inhibit the burst release phenomenon, and low crosslinking state is used to accelerate the response and is suitable for the short-period hormone release demand in rhizosphere; By setting the response threshold parameter, the pH change range or enzyme concentration limit is limited to ensure that the release behavior only starts when the target soil microenvironment condition is reached, forming a specific release path for the target area.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the multi-level regulation of the nano-carrier structure includes: Combined with the adsorption area division result, the soil microenvironment indicators (including pH value distribution, Ca 2+ / Mg 2+ concentration, conductivity) in the plot are converted into a quantifiable regional response parameter matrix to determine the trend level of carrier release restriction or overload in different regions; A pH-responsive coating based on polyacrylic acid or carboxymethyl chitosan is introduced to the outer layer of the nano-carrier to open or close the release channel under acid-base change conditions; the intermediate structure introduces calcium phosphate or montmorillonite intercalation structure with ion exchange ability to respond to Ca 2+ concentration change to adjust the release rate; the inner layer adjusts the release direction offset by fixing the charge distribution to adapt to the potential difference directed mass transfer path; By adjusting the arrangement order, thickness ratio and threshold response interval of each response layer, a response path system with regional resolution ability is constructed to ensure that in the high adsorption or release interference area, the carrier release path migrates directionally or is selectively closed. The release path adjustment behavior is fused and analyzed with historical release data to allocate more preferential release channels to the release lag area, and a dynamic spatial release regulation mode based on plot characteristics is constructed.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the pH-responsive coating is composed of polyacrylic acid or carboxymethyl chitosan.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the non-linear compensation refers to: According to the deviation comparison between the actual release data of each soil area in the previous application process and the target application dose, a spatial dose deviation map is constructed to identify the local excessive release area and the insufficient release area, and to label and match the release state of the corresponding area in the response path system; Multiple controllable release channels are arranged in the nano-carrier structure, which respond to different environmental parameter trigger thresholds, and by adjusting the opening conditions and activation sequence of each release channel, a non-linear mapping relationship between local environmental signals and release intensity is established; In the insufficient release area, release advance activation logic is set to enhance the local compensation effect by reducing the channel activation threshold or prolonging the release duration; in the excessive release area, the activation is delayed or the release rate is limited to suppress the cumulative dose, forming a spatial dynamic differential control strategy.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, during the application process, based on the rhizosphere space regulator distribution data collected by fluorescence-responsive or potential-responsive nano-probes, plant physiological response signals, nano-carrier release state and soil adsorption parameters in multiple application periods, a training set and a verification set containing multiple environmental variables are constructed to train a convolutional neural network model with spatial feature recognition capability; The model input end is an image or tensor input composed of collected multi-channel data, reflecting the coupling state of the current micro-area soil-plant-carrier system; The model output end is the path response feature parameter set required for adjustment of the area under stress conditions in the next application period, including the opening threshold, activation sequence, response layer arrangement structure and its adjustment parameters of each release channel; During the training process, the back propagation algorithm is used for weight update, and the output results are error corrected through the mean square error or cross-entropy loss function until the prediction accuracy of the verification set reaches the set threshold, forming a convolutional neural network model with generalization ability, and used to optimize the next round of delivery strategy.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0017] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the present application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings; Figure 1 The present application can effectively identify the area with significant interference risk to the release behavior of the nano carrier in the soil by constructing a soil colloidal mineral distribution map, using high-throughput soil spectrum collection methods to comprehensively quantify the mineral type, spatial distribution range and adsorption strength of the target plot before application, and combining the adsorption behavior difference to partition and calibrate the high adsorption area and the low release area. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0019] Reference Figure 1 The following embodiments are obtained: Embodiment 1: A plant source biological regulator delivery method based on a nano carrier, comprising the following steps: A soil colloidal mineral distribution map is constructed, the mineral type, distribution range and adsorption strength are obtained by a high-throughput soil spectrum acquisition method, the high adsorption area and the low release area are calibrated, and the division of the locked risk area is completed before application; by identifying the soil area where the release of the nano carrier may be disturbed, the problems such as dose retention, local failure or excessive accumulation are avoided from the root. High-dimensional soil spectrum data are obtained by VIS-NIR joint scanning, and then a fitting model between the spectrum and the mineral composition is established by combining with XRD and SEM and the like, so that the three-dimensional distribution state of the colloidal mineral in the plot can be calculated. Further, an adsorption interference index is constructed for identifying the high-risk area which significantly affects the release behavior of the regulator, so as to complete the accurate division at the spatial level before application, and to provide geographical and mineral environment basic support for the subsequent delivery strategy.
[0020] The surface ligand structure of the nano carrier located in the high adsorption area is modified, and a desorption molecule block with pH response or enzyme response characteristics is introduced to control the release rhythm after adsorption occurs and to avoid dose lock phenomenon; in view of the problem that the nano carrier in the high adsorption area is easily adsorbed and loses the release function, the surface ligand structure of the carrier is designed to have a controlled release ability. The pH response block (such as polyacrylic acid) and the enzyme response block (such as natural polypeptide) can start conformational transition or bond rupture under specific rhizosphere microenvironment signals, so as to delay the start of the release process or adjust the release rate. By adjusting the molecular chain length, crosslinking density and response threshold parameters, the release behavior can be accurately controlled, the structural rhythm of “delayed start + continuous release” is formed, the regulator retention or one-time burst release is prevented, and the release controllability and spatial matching are improved.
[0021] According to the adsorption zoning and release history data, the nano-carrier structure is multi-level regulated, the release path is dynamically adjusted, and the local dose difference is balanced through regional inhibition and nonlinear compensation. Based on the divided soil risk area and historical release record, the hierarchical regulation and behavior arrangement are carried out around the internal structure of the carrier. By constructing a response path system composed of pH-responsive coating, ion exchange middle layer and potential-regulated inner layer, the carrier has the ability to respond to the gradient of signals such as pH, ion concentration and conductivity in the soil, so as to automatically adjust the opening order, direction and rate of the release channel. On the basis of the release path deviation, a nonlinear compensation mechanism is introduced: preferentially releasing in the area of insufficient release, delaying release or closing the channel in the area of excessive dose, realizing the dynamic balance of spatial dose and fine control of dose superposition across rounds, and preventing abnormal growth of crops caused by imbalance.
[0022] During the application process, fluorescent or potential response type nano-probes are deployed near the plant roots, the spatial distribution of the regulator in the rhizosphere and the physiological response data of the plant are collected, and the carrier release behavior and soil adsorption characteristics are modeled, based on which the next round of delivery strategy is optimized, and the closed-loop delivery control of the regulator across cycles is completed. By implanting high-sensitivity fluorescent or potential response type probes in the rhizosphere area, the actual distribution of the regulator in the soil and the physiological response of the plant roots to the regulator (such as pH fluctuation and root growth density) are monitored in real time. The spatial-time sequence data obtained are integrated with the carrier release record and the adsorption area characteristics to construct a convolutional neural network model with a tensor image as input and a path response feature parameter set as output. After model training, it has prediction ability and can output the optimal response path structure parameter configuration before the next round of application, realizing cross-cycle, self-adaptive and crop feedback driven delivery control of the regulator, and improving the application accuracy and agronomic control efficiency.
[0023] A light-sensitive or magnetic response marker is provided on the outside of the nano-carrier to identify the release state and distribution trajectory of the carrier in the historical application. A tracking mechanism for the nano-carrier between multiple application cycles is established to overcome the defect of "untraceable carrier" in traditional methods. By introducing a light-sensitive or magnetic response marker with stable response characteristics on the surface of the carrier, the position and residual release state of the carrier can be obtained after application through external scanning technology (such as near-infrared excitation imaging, magnetic resonance positioning). This information will be an important input variable for training the convolutional neural network model, which will help to determine whether the release path is complete, whether there is cumulative retention or excessive release, thereby improving the modeling accuracy and prediction reliability of the model for the historical state.
[0024] To accurately identify the soil area where the release behavior of the regulator is interfered by adsorption before application, a high-precision soil colloidal mineral distribution map can be constructed by the following steps, and the division and classification management of the locking risk area can be completed accordingly: the target agricultural land is divided into a spatial grid, and systematic sampling is carried out according to the preset grid size. Taking a 5-hectare land as an example, a 10-meter x 10-meter grid is used for sampling, and a total of 500 point samples are collected. The sampling depth of each sample point is 0-20 cm of the plough layer soil, and is numbered and registered. Subsequently, a visible-near infrared spectrometer is used to scan all soil samples at high throughput to obtain soil reflectance spectrum data in the 400-2500 nanometer waveband range. This data can reveal the characteristic absorption peaks of functional groups in the soil, including Si-O, Al-OH, and other mineral group reflection characteristics, providing a basis for subsequent mineral identification. To improve prediction accuracy, 30% of the sample points are selected as modeling samples and sent to an X-ray diffractometer for crystal structure analysis and a scanning electron microscope (with energy spectrum analysis) for element surface distribution measurement to quantitatively obtain the relative content of main colloidal minerals such as montmorillonite, kaolin, illite, quartz, and iron oxide.
[0025] After completing the quantitative analysis of mineral components, a mathematical model between reflectance spectrum and mineral content is established using partial least squares regression (PLSR), and 10-fold cross-validation is performed to obtain a regression equation with an average prediction error controlled within ±3%. This equation is used to back-calculate the mineral component content of the remaining 70% of the samples that are not tested, and to realize the spatial mapping of the mineral type of the entire land. Based on the prediction results, a mineral type adsorption coefficient database is constructed. The adsorption coefficient refers to the maximum static adsorption capacity of a unit mass of a certain mineral to a plant-derived biological regulator (mg / g), which can be determined by batch isotherm adsorption experiments. Taking chitosan-modified salicylic acid as a representative regulator, the adsorption coefficient of kaolin is measured to be 4.8 mg / g, that of montmorillonite is 8.2 mg / g, and that of illite is 2.3 mg / g. At the same time, laboratory column leaching tests are conducted on the release behavior of typical carrier materials (such as carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles, chitosan-iron oxide composite particles, etc.) in the above mineral-covered soil, and the changes in release start time and maximum release rate are recorded to establish a carrier release sensitivity factor database. The sensitivity factor is represented by the release start delay ratio (control / target soil) and the rate reduction percentage. For example, the carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles have a 2.1-fold release start delay and a 38% maximum rate reduction in the kaolin environment. The adsorption coefficient and the release sensitivity factor are weighted at a weight of 0.6:0.4 to calculate the adsorption interference index, which is used to comprehensively represent the interference strength of the soil micro-area on the release behavior of the nano-carrier.
[0026] The adsorption interference index is assigned to the entire grid by using a spatial interpolation method to form a spatial distribution map of adsorption interference intensity. The interference index ≥ 0.7 is set as a high interference threshold, and the grids greater than the value are marked red to form a preliminary screening map of the potential release failure area. Subsequently, known topographic and hydrological data are introduced as auxiliary judgment basis, and the parameters include slope (obtained by laser ranging and slope fitting), land drainage direction, water potential flow trend and soil bulk density value. The spatial connectivity of the high interference grid is screened, the isolated high value points are removed, the contiguous high interference area (such as 5 or more adjacent high value grids) is retained, and the boundary tracking algorithm is used for area sealing to complete the closed marking of the high adsorption area and the low release area. The high-risk area defined above is used as the constraint input for the adjustment of the application path and the dose structure of the regulator, and the subsequent parameters such as the release path regulation of the nano-carrier, the release pore threshold setting, and the release sequence arrangement are all based on the distribution map as the reference basis, so as to realize the environmental adaptability adjustment in the overall application strategy, improve the utilization rate of the regulator, reduce the non-target release, and improve the intelligent application and control level of agricultural land.
[0027] More specifically: the present application adopts a linkage mechanism of spatial connectivity screening, boundary tracking algorithm and regional classification standard, establishes a spatial recognition criterion, the adsorption interference index is a weighted parameter based on the adsorption coefficient of soil colloidal mineral type and the release sensitive factor of nano-carrier, and the numerical range is set between 0 and 1. In order to identify the soil unit which significantly interferes with the release behavior of the nano-carrier, the initial threshold of the adsorption interference index is set to 0.70, and any index value not lower than the threshold is marked as a “candidate high interference grid”.
[0028] The candidate grid is further screened by the spatial connectivity rule, and an eight-neighbor connection mode (i.e. each grid in eight directions constitutes a potential adjacent path) is adopted. If the neighborhood of a candidate grid has not less than 4 grids satisfying the condition of adsorption interference index ≥ 0.70, the grid is determined as a “high interference core grid”.
[0029] A plurality of high interference core grids constitute a contiguous area in space. In order to exclude the interference of accidental high value points, a connectivity quantity threshold is further set: the number of high interference core grids is not less than 5, and each core point is connected through an adjacent path to form an effective connectivity chain. The contiguous area meeting the standard is confirmed as a “spatially connected high interference area”. In order to enhance the environmental adaptability of soil, the present application introduces topographic and hydrological factors to assist in weighting the adsorption interference index: for the grids meeting the following conditions, the adsorption interference index value is automatically increased by 0.05 as a correction: the slope is less than 2 degrees, the soil bulk density is higher than 1.3 g / cm3, it is located in the downstream area of natural water catchment, and the drainage direction consistency is higher than 80%. The correction value is included in the final index of connectivity judgment to enhance the identification ability of structural poor soil.
[0030] After the connectivity screening, the connected high-interference grid groups need to be identified with closed boundaries for the subsequent binding of delivery path regulation parameters. The present application uses a chain code boundary tracking algorithm to construct the boundary of each high-interference contiguous area. The tracking starts from the top-left corner of the boundary grid, and then checks the 8 adjacent directions in clockwise direction. Once a new boundary grid is identified, the boundary search is continued recursively at the current position until the beginning and end coincide to form a closed loop path. The process outputs the direction encoding sequence and point set coordinates of the boundary. In order to eliminate the sawtooth structure and polygonal protrusions in the boundary tracking process, the minimum convex hull algorithm is used for preliminary geometric optimization of the boundary line. Finally, the closed area is output as a high-interference area unit with independent numbering, each area is accompanied by the average adsorption interference index, maximum value, minimum value and its boundary coordinate set.
[0031] In the present application, the high adsorption area and the low release area partially overlap, but the determination logic of the two is based on different physical-chemical characteristics. The high adsorption area is defined as: the adsorption interference index ≥ 0.70, and the unit mass adsorption capacity of the dominant mineral ≥ 5.0 mg / g; at the same time, this area meets the connectivity criterion and is closed and calibrated by the boundary tracking algorithm, and belongs to the area with significantly enhanced adsorption capacity of colloidal minerals. The low release area is defined as: the carrier release sensitive factor shows that the startup delay ratio is ≥ 1.8, or the maximum release rate decreases by ≥ 30%; at the same time, this area shows that the carrier release completion rate is less than 50% in the residual analysis, which can be obtained through laboratory leaching column test. The low release area can be spatially crossed and nested with the high adsorption area, or it can exist independently, representing a micro-domain where carrier release is inhibited by the environment but not necessarily related to adsorption behavior. Finally, all areas that meet the above criteria will be included in the delivery path regulation reference area set for subsequent steps such as optimizing release rhythm, responding to layer structure arrangement, and nonlinear dose compensation behavior.
[0032] The mineral type adsorption coefficient refers to the maximum isothermal adsorption capacity of plant-derived biological regulators per unit mass of colloidal minerals under specific temperature, pH value and ionic strength conditions, reflecting the strength of the physical-chemical binding capacity of different minerals to regulator molecules. The determination method uses isothermal adsorption experiment: under the condition of constant temperature at 25°C, prepare a certain concentration gradient of regulator solution (such as 10, 20, 50, 100 mg / L), mix with known mass (such as 0.1 g) of target mineral (such as montmorillonite, kaolin, illite, etc.), and place in a shaker for full adsorption equilibrium (usually 24 hours); after centrifugation, the supernatant is taken, and the remaining regulator concentration is measured using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer or high performance liquid chromatograph. Through Langmuir or Freundlich model fitting of adsorption equilibrium data, the maximum adsorption amount is obtained as the adsorption coefficient of the mineral. This parameter is used to characterize the difference in adsorption capacity of different soil colloidal components to biological regulators, and is an important basic variable for the calculation of adsorption interference index.
[0033] The carrier release sensitivity factor refers to the degree of change in the release behavior of a specific type of nanocarrier in different mineral environments relative to the change in the absence of minerals, and is used to describe the interference effect of the mineral environment on the release rate of the carrier. The factor includes two core indicators: release start time delay ratio: indicates the starting time of the release behavior of the carrier in the presence of target minerals relative to the blank control; maximum release rate change rate: indicates the degree of reduction of the maximum release rate of the carrier per unit time in the target mineral environment relative to the blank control.
[0034] The experimental method includes dispersing an equal amount of carriers in an artificial soil system constructed by target minerals, and using water or buffer as the leaching medium, collecting sample liquid at set time intervals, and determining the concentration change of the released regulator. The starting release point and the maximum release rate point are derived from the cumulative release curve, and the sensitivity factor parameters can be calculated. The parameters are used to evaluate the regulation ability of the soil environment on the release dynamics of the nanocarrier, and play a key role in subsequent adsorption interference index construction, release path regulation and rhythm optimization.
[0035] To prevent the release "lock" or instantaneous burst phenomenon of plant-derived biological regulators in the high adsorption area, the present application provides a release rhythm control method based on responsive molecular block regulation, which gives the nanocarrier the ability of time delay, self-adaptive diffusion and environmental triggering in the soil microenvironment. The method adjusts through multi-level material structure to ensure accurate delivery of the regulator while effectively improving its adaptability and utilization efficiency in complex rhizosphere environment. The specific implementation steps are as follows: around the time control requirements of the release window, select block copolymer materials with pH or enzyme response characteristics (such as polyacrylic acid-polyethylene glycol block, chitosan-gelatin copolymer, etc.) to construct the nanocarrier surface modification layer. Based on the target release delay time (such as starting delay of 6 hours) and duration (such as release maintenance of 48 hours), the molecular design of the block length is carried out. The chain length is set between 30-120 repeating units, and the conformational stability of the chain segment is evaluated by molecular dynamics simulation to confirm that it can maintain a closed state in neutral or weakly alkaline conditions, and undergo conformational relaxation and structure opening in a pH drop or enzyme catalytic environment, thereby serving as a "delay gate" for the release start mechanism.
[0036] On the basis of completing the chain length setting, the controllable crosslinking monomer (such as double acrylamide, dextran uronic acid dialdehyde bond) is introduced into the response type block, the crosslinking density is adjusted, and the release rate curve of the release process is controlled. Three types of carrier populations are constructed for comparative experiments with 0.5%, 1% and 2% as typical crosslinking degrees, and the results show that the release rate of the high crosslinking structure in the rhizosphere simulation solution is 1.8 μg / h, and the release duration is more than 60 hours; while the release rate of the low crosslinking structure is 5.2 μg / h, and the duration is less than 24 hours. Therefore, according to the application requirements, the crosslinking density combination is selected to realize the release adaptation of the regulator in the scene of early stimulation or continuous action of the root system.
[0037] On the basis of the release structure having starting and rate adjustment functions, in order to realize the regional directional triggering release behavior, a specific response threshold parameter is set. Taking chitosan carrier as an example, it only occurs charge reversal and releases load when the pH is below 5.5, combined with the acidification depth of the target soil, local root system enzyme concentration and other data, the response interval is determined to be pH 5.2-5.6 or enzyme concentration greater than 0.4 U / mL through experiments. In the block structure design, according to the response interval, the selective cleavage point is constructed to make the release behavior only occur when the set threshold condition is reached, so as to ensure that the release process has regional specificity and environmental dependence.
[0038] Combined with the chain length configuration design, crosslinking density adjustment and response threshold setting, the release rhythm full-link control scheme of “delayed start-non-bursting-regional response” of the nano carrier is completed. Through the construction of soil simulation column experiments, the modified carrier is applied and the cumulative release amount of the target regulator at the depth of 1 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm is monitored, and the results show that the carrier with rhythm control structure can complete more than 90% of the release within 48 hours, while avoiding the burst peak (instantaneous release rate <8% of total amount / h), and showing excellent release region limitation (release rate in non-target pH region is less than 10%). The rhythm control mechanism can be personalized parameter configured according to the actual soil partition characteristics, and provides a timing basis for the dynamic adjustment of the subsequent response path system.
[0039] In order to realize the spatial precise delivery and dynamic adaptive release of plant source biological regulators in complex soil microenvironment, the present application uses the combination of materials with different response mechanisms to construct a multifunctional release channel, and dynamically regulates the release behavior of each layer according to the soil environment parameters, so as to maintain the balance of release efficiency and dose in the high adsorption area or the release limited area. The structure regulation process is as follows: based on the adsorption zoning result, the key indicators of soil microenvironment in the land plot are collected, including pH value (sampling depth 0-10 cm), soluble Ca 2+ and Mg 2+Concentration (ICP-MS), conductivity (electrode insertion method), which is standardized into a three-dimensional regional response parameter matrix. Form a data array with spatial positioning and environmental gradient properties in units of every 10x10m grid. For each grid unit, trend analysis is performed according to the aforementioned indicators to construct a release-restricted trend level (0-3 levels), where level 0 indicates normal release, and level 3 indicates severe release delay. The level results are used to guide the adaptive design of the subsequent nano-carrier structure response mechanism.
[0040] According to the environmental trend level, a three-level structure response system is constructed for the nano-carrier. The outer layer uses a pH-responsive coating formed by polyacrylic acid or carboxymethyl chitosan, which expands or disintegrates when the soil pH is less than 5.5 or greater than 8.0, opening the release channels. The middle structure introduces calcium phosphate nanosheets or montmorillonite intercalation to form a structure channel with ion exchange capacity, which can adjust the release flux by adjusting the Ca 2+ Concentration higher than 20mg / L or Mg 2+ When the concentration exceeds 15mg / L, the interlayer spacing expands, adjusting the release flux. The inner layer constructs a core region with fixed charge distribution, such as inducing the directional migration of adjusting agents along the potential gradient by distributed negative charge groups (such as sulfonic acid or carboxyl), to realize the release direction deviation. The three-layer structure has a synergistic response mechanism and can produce targeted adjustment to different soil indicators.
[0041] Based on the establishment of the response structure, combined with the historical release data and residual distribution trajectory of the target area, the arrangement order, thickness ratio, and response threshold of the multi-layer structure are quantitatively optimized. In the experimental setup, the pH-responsive coating is set to a thickness of 50nm, the intermediate ion-responsive layer is 80nm, and the inner layer charge-guided structure is 40nm, forming a 200nm nanoparticle coating layer with a total particle size in the range of 300-500nm. At the same time, by adjusting the cross-linking density and block molecular structure of the coating, the response starting point is accurately matched to the soil indicators. For example, adjusting the acetic acid cross-linking degree of carboxymethyl chitosan coating to 3.5%, so that the release channel is automatically opened when pH<5.4. The structure parameters are compared and calibrated through field experiments to form a dynamic regulation model between soil response state and release behavior.
[0042] The multi-layer structure adjustment behavior is fused with the historical release behavior in the plot. The abnormal data of release completion rate, lag time and local dose of the adjusting agent in each micro area in the previous application cycle are used to endow more response channel numbers and preferential activation paths to the high release lag area. For example, in the area where the lag time exceeds 24 hours, the outer layer response thickness is reduced by 20%, and the middle layer intercalation structure is expanded by 10%, so that it can respond quickly at the beginning of application and make up for the dose gap. On the contrary, in the over-release area, the response path is selectively closed by thickening the inner layer fixed charge structure or raising the response threshold, to prevent excessive dose. The above adjustment behavior constructs a dynamic spatial release mode with regional differential perception and spatial release adjustment capability, realizing the self-adaptive balance of dose in different areas.
[0043] To solve the problem of local dose unevenness caused by adsorption locking or release imbalance of nano-carriers during the delivery of plant-derived biological regulators, a compensation adjustment mechanism based on the nonlinear relationship between the multi-channel structure and the environmental trigger signal is designed, so that the nano-carriers have the ability of regional dose self-regulation in subsequent application, thereby realizing the correction of historical release deviation and spatial dose balance. The mechanism includes four stages of dose deviation identification, nonlinear response construction, compensation channel setting and release intensity dynamic correction, as follows: In the previous application process, the actual release data and the target application dose data of the adjusting agent in each soil micro area are collected. Through rhizosphere nano probes, carrier coding labels and fluorescence release tracking, the cumulative release amount (unit: mg / m²) of the adjusting agent at each coordinate point (accuracy 0.5m×0.5m) is obtained, and compared with the target application dose (such as the target value is 120mg / m²), to calculate the dose deviation rate of each area. The deviation rate is projected into the spatial grid, and an interpolation method is used to construct a continuously distributed dose deviation map. According to the set threshold (±15%), the map is divided into three types of areas: over-release area (deviation>15%), under-release area (deviation<-15%) and normal release area (-15%-15%). The partition result is matched with the carrier types and their distribution areas in the response path system, to mark the areas that need to be adjusted in the next round of application.
[0044] In the marked areas that need to be adjusted, multiple controllable release channels are introduced to the nano-carrier structure, and different response parameter combinations are set for different channels. Each channel has a separate response trigger condition, such as channel A responds to pH below 5.5, channel B responds to Ca 2+The concentration is higher than 15 mg / L, and the response potential difference of channel C is greater than 25 mV. By adjusting the channel structure parameters (such as threshold film thickness, block molecular chain length, channel diameter), a nonlinear function relationship between environmental signal and release rate is established. Taking the pH response channel as an example, the release intensity R (unit: μg / h) and pH present an exponential decline relationship: R = R0 x exp(-k x (pH-YZ)). The construction of nonlinear relationship makes different channels present differential response effect in similar environment, forming the nonlinear distribution basis of spatial release intensity, wherein the release intensity R represents the mass of plant source biological regulator released by the nano carrier per unit time under a specific pH condition, and is obtained by dynamic diffusion release experiment, constant pH condition, and high performance liquid chromatography or fluorescence probe method for sampling and measuring regulator release rate at regular intervals. The reference release intensity R0 represents the standard release rate under the trigger threshold YZ, which is the "initial release intensity" or maximum response point of the response channel. Physical meaning: the channel starts to release when the pH just reaches the activation threshold, at which time the release behavior is most typical. Acquisition method: the average release rate is measured under the control condition of pH = YZ, k (response sensitivity coefficient) reflects the influence of pH on the change of release rate, which is the exponential coefficient in the model that determines the "speed of decline", the greater the value, the more sensitive the system is to pH change, and the more steep the release rate decreases; the smaller the value, the more "blunt" the release is, and the less sensitive it is to pH; acquisition method: through multi-point pH response experiment, the relationship curve of R and pH is fitted at different pH values, and the coefficient of the best exponential fitting curve is obtained. pH (current environmental pH value): the instantaneous pH value in the target soil microenvironment or rhizosphere environment, obtained by rhizosphere probe or experimental buffer solution. YZ (trigger threshold): the minimum starting pH value of the channel structure conformational transition (such as block expansion, chain segment unfolding, chemical bond dissociation), which is the "starting threshold" of the release, and is obtained by adjusting the environmental pH step by step, observing the minimum pH value at which the channel first opens or the regulator starts to release.
[0045] In combination with the dose deviation map, different types of regions are set with differential channel activation logic. In the release insufficient area, the response threshold of part of the channels is lowered by 10%-20%, for example, the pH trigger threshold is adjusted from 5.5 to 5.8, or the Ca 2+ The concentration response threshold is reduced from 15 mg / L to 12 mg / L, and at the same time, the local release amount is enhanced by reducing the channel closure density or prolonging the channel opening duration (such as 30%), so as to realize dose compensation. In the release excessive area, the response threshold and release duration are adjusted in the opposite direction, the response threshold is raised or the opening window is shortened, so as to reduce the cumulative dose and inhibit the formation of local hormone interference zone.
[0046] Finally, the compensation parameters are embedded in the structure code of the next round of nanocarriers, and regional matching is completed according to the field map before application. After the distribution of the carriers in the soil, the internal channel response structure is automatically adjusted to release behavior, realizing the dynamic repair of historical release anomalies. After three rounds of application period verification, the dose deviation of the excessive release area decreased from +22.6% to +4.8%, and the insufficient release area increased from -18.3% to -3.5%, indicating that the nonlinear compensation mechanism can effectively adjust the regional release anomaly, significantly improving the spatial balance and biological utilization rate of the nanometer delivery system.
[0047] To realize the cross-cycle closed-loop delivery control of plant-derived biological regulators in complex soil environment, the invention uses data samples from the coupling behavior among soil, plants and nanocarriers to train a deep learning model with spatial recognition ability, thereby optimizing the response structure parameters and dose timing configuration of the next application cycle. Based on the field data collection work in multiple consecutive application cycles, through the deployment of fluorescence response type and potential response type nanoprobes in the plant root zone, the three-dimensional spatial distribution map of the regulator in the rhizosphere area (unit resolution 0.5m x 0.5m x 5cm) is obtained, and combined with photosynthesis rate, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (such as Fv / Fm), root length density (unit cm / cm³), etc. Plant physiological response indicators, as well as carrier coding label release residual information and in-situ sampling soil adsorption parameters (such as local pH, cation exchange capacity, specific surface area, etc.), a training data set covering 200 grid units is constructed. Each grid unit data sample is stored in the form of a 3-dimensional matrix, containing 12 or more channels, combined to form a multi-channel tensor input, labeled as tensor dimension: [N, C, H, W], where N is the number of samples, C is the number of channels, H and W are spatial dimensions. To avoid data overfitting, the training set and the validation set are divided in the ratio of 8:2 to ensure representativeness.
[0048] The collected data tensor is input into a convolutional neural network structure with spatial feature extraction capability, where the first two layers are 3x3 convolution kernels with ReLU activation function to extract regulator distribution and environmental coupling features; the middle layer introduces a spatial pyramid pooling structure to enhance the model's learning ability for multi-scale response; the tail structure includes two fully connected layers for outputting the path response feature parameter set of the corresponding area in the next cycle. The parameter set includes: the opening threshold of each response channel (such as pH critical value, potential activation intensity), activation order (such as channel A prior to channel B), response structure layer arrangement (such as inner-outer-middle three-layer sequence) and its thickness ratio configuration (such as 20:60:20) and regulation window (such as activation duration), the output is a multi-label prediction set with dimension [Y1, Y2,..., Yn], Yn corresponds to n adjustable structure parameters.
[0049] The supervised learning method is used for training, and the target label is set as the "optimal response configuration" collected from the previous cycle test or simulation experiment, that is, the path structure parameter that can maximize the dose deviation correction and improve the plant response. The loss function is composed of mean square error (MSE) and cross-entropy loss, the former is suitable for continuous parameter adjustment (such as pore thickness ratio, response delay time), and the latter is suitable for discrete label (such as response sequence, structure arrangement). The weight is updated by the back propagation algorithm, 100 iterations per training iteration, the initial learning rate is set to 1e-3, and the momentum coefficient is 0.9. The early stopping strategy is set on the validation set, and the training is stopped when the accuracy improvement is less than 0.5% for 5 consecutive times. The final model has a prediction accuracy of more than 92.3% on the validation set, reaching the deployment standard.
[0050] Finally, the trained model is embedded in the delivery path design process. For the soil-plant-carrier comprehensive environmental map before the next round of application, the new sample is input into the model to obtain the output path response feature parameter set, which is used as the basis for structure setting of this round of carrier manufacturing, and is fed back to the regulator release structure construction step to guide the response pore design, coating material selection and threshold setting, etc. The delivery path has the ability of self-adaptive adjustment across cycles. Three rounds of field verification show that the application strategy guided by the model reduces the variance of rhizosphere regulator spatial distribution by 35.6%, and the plant root length growth rate is increased by 18.4%, which is significantly better than the static structure carrier, verifying the model's ability to accurately predict the parameters of the delivery path in complex environments and the actual effect.
