“…(2014) and Amirnia et al (2014), those who reported significant improvements in various growth parameters by adding Fenanoparticles. Similar results were obtained by Ghafari & Razmjoo (2015) in durum wheat; Dhoke et al (2013) in mung (Vigna radiate); Mohamadipoor et al (2013) in Spathyphyllum illnsion and Soliman et al (2015) in Moringa peregrine. It was also reported that fruit yield of Solanum melanogena L. increased by foliar application of nano -iron chelate fertilizer (Bozorgi, 2012).…”

KEYWORDS Fe oxide nanoparticles Iron deficiency Chlorosis in vitro Citrus volkameriana ABSTRACTPresent study was undertaken to explore of the effect iron nanoparticles (uncoated iron oxide nanoparticles, iron oxide nanoparticles coated with polyethylene glycol and FeEDTA and FeEDDHA chelates) on prevention of chlorosis in Citrus volkameriana. Study was carried out under the in vitro condition on MS medium supplemented with different iron compositions. Various growth attributes such as chlorophyll a, b, iron content of leaves, root and shoot length, number and area of leaves, degree of chlorosis, dry and fresh weights of seedling, roots and shoots were measured in end of study. Results of study revealed that seedlings grown on MS culture medium supplemented with uncoated nanoparticles of iron oxide had the highest rates of iron uptake and the lowest degree of chlorosis. Further, plant cultured on the MS medium with uncoated iron nanoparticles significantly increased vegetative growth characteristics such as, fresh and dry weights and chlorophyll content over the control (MS without chelated iron). Plant cultured on MS medium supplemented with uncoated iron oxide nanoparticles showed superiority over the plant cultured on MS media without iron and improved leaves growth characteristics and decreased chlorosis.

“…The selective uptake, biotransformation, and translocation of various nanoparticles by a model plant have been schematically represented (Dhoke et al, 2013). Nanoparticles have high reactivity because of more specific surface area, more density of reactive areas, or increased reactivity of these areas on the particle surfaces.…”

Nanofertilizers have become a pioneer approach in agriculture research nowadays. In this paper we investigate the delivery of chitosan nanoparticles loaded with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (NPK) for wheat plants by foliar uptake. Chiotsan-NPK nanoparticles were easily applied to leaf surfaces and entered the stomata via gas uptake, avoiding direct interaction with soil systems. The uptake and translocation of nanoparticles inside wheat plants was investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The results revealed that nano particles were taken up and transported through phloem tissues. Treatment of wheat plants grown on sandy soil with nano chitosan-NPK fertilizer induced significant increases in harvest index, crop index and mobilization index of the determined wheat yield variables, as compared with control yield variables of wheat plants treated with normal non-fertilized and normal fertilized NPK. The life cycle of the nano-fertilized wheat plants was shorter than normal-fertilized wheat plants with the ratio of 23.5% (130 days compared with 170 days for yield production from date of sowing). Thus, accelerating plant growth and productivity by application of nanofertilizers can open new perspectives in agricultural practice. However, the response of plants to nanofertilizers varies with the type of plant species, their growth stages and nature of nanomaterials.

“…These chemicals result in various side effects in the plants and soil, and harm the environment in different ways. Nano-ZnO particle (20 nm), nano-FeO (100 nm), and nano-CuO (40 nm) at ppm level showed increased shoot and root length in Mung seedling by foliar spray (Dhoke et al 2013). Foliar spray method is more practical for an agronomic standpoint as plants can absorb essential elements through their leaves more efficiently compared to root feeding.…”

Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles was carried out using Calotropis leaf extract with zinc acetate salt in the presence of 2 M NaOH. The combination of 200 mM zinc acetate salt and 15 ml of leaf extract was ideal for the synthesis of less than 20 nm size of highly monodisperse crystalline nanoparticles. Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized through UV-Vis spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), EDX (energy dispersive X-ray), and AFM (atomic force microscopy). Effects of biogenic zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on growth and development of tree seedlings in nursery stage were studied in open-air trenches. The UV-Vis absorption maxima showed peak near 350 nm, which is characteristic of ZnO nanoparticles. DLS data showed that single peak is at 11 nm (100%) and Polydispersity Index is 0.245. XRD analysis showed that these are highly crystalline ZnO nanoparticles having an average size of 10 nm. FTIR spectra were recorded to identify the biomolecules involved in the synthesis process, which showed absorption bands at 4307, 3390, 2825, 871, 439, and 420 cm -1 . SEM images showed that the particles were spherical in nature. The presence of zinc and oxygen was confirmed by EDX and the atomic % of zinc and oxygen were 33.31 and 68.69, respectively. 2D and 3D images of ZnO nanoparticles were obtained by AFM studies, which indicated that these are monodisperse having size ranges between 1.5 and 8.5 nm. Significant enhancement of growth was observed in Neem (Azadirachta indica), Karanj (Pongamia pinnata), and Milkwood-pine (Alstonia scholaris) seedlings in foliar spraying ZnO nanoparticles to nursery stage of tree seedlings. Out of the three treated saplings, Alstonia scholaris showed maximum height development.
