چکیده
Metallic nanoparticles have huge applications in all the fields including agriculture and its allied sciences. This study aims at evaluating possible implications of iron oxide nanoparticles on the growth and development of rice (Oryza sativa L.). Rice is feeding hunger of half of the World’s population and yet found to be highly sensitive towards iron deficiency especially at seedling stage. The results obtained through hydroponic study reveals growth stimulatory effects of rice seedlings exposed to various metallic form of iron bulk and nano at concentrations at 100, 200 and 400 ppm. Nanoparticle treated seedlings experienced less stress compared to their bulk counterparts. Together, physiological and biochemical results show that iron nanoparticles could be utilized for overcoming Fe deficiency especially during seedling development.

Accumulation of γ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) is associated with stress factors in plant systems. The objective of the current study was to compare GABA concentration in wheat plants under chilling stress. After 48 h treatments of seedlings under chilling stress combined stresses with and without GABA, morphological and biochemical assays were conducted. It was observed that the inhibition of see...

Effects of different concentrations [0, 1, 5, 10, 20 and 40 mgL-1] of Fe3O4 and CuO nano-particles (nFe3O4 and nCuO) were investigated on sulforaphane (SFN) production level in 7-day-old seedlings of Lepidium draba at different time intervals (8 and 16 hrs). According to the results, the influence of the particles on SFN contentdepends on nano-particle (NP) concentrations, time of treatment as ...
