“…The nanoparticles' water solubility and nanometer size allowed their assimilation by the strawberries' roots and increased the chlorophyll, phenol, and carbohydrate content [24]. Carbon dots produced from sugar beet molasses (a byproduct of sugar factories) (M-CD) were assayed to alleviate the effects of drought and salt stress on tobacco plant growth [25]. M-CD were obtained directly from the supernatant of the centrifugation of a mixture of 5 g of molasses and 10 mL of water [25].…”

Green carbon-based materials (GCM), i.e., carbon materials produced using renewable biomass or recycled waste, ought to be used to make processes sustainable and carbon-neutral. Carbon nanomaterials, like carbon dots and the nanobichar families, and carbon materials, like activated carbon and biochar substances, are sustainable materials with great potential to be used in different technological applications. In this review, the following four applications were selected, and the works published in the last two years (since 2022) were critically reviewed: agriculture, water treatment, energy management, and carbon dioxide reduction and sequestration. GCM improved the performance of the technological applications under revision and played an important role in the sustainability of the processes, contributing to the mitigation of climate change, by reducing emissions and increasing the sequestration of CO2eq.

“…Investigation of the effects of CNMs on crop growth is gradually being focused on in the era of food crisis. Some research have shown that CNMs can inhibit the apparent growth of crops while being cytotoxic and genotoxic. , However, there is also a group of studies demonstrating that CNMs promote the germination and growth of crop seeds and even enhance the ability of plants to resist harsh environments (e.g., drought). , It can be speculated that the results of different effects of CNMs on plants greatly depend on the plant species, type of CNMs, particle size and concentration, and growth environment. At present, we still lack a systematic assessment about the interactions between CNMs and crops.…”

To systematically assess the impact of typical CNMs on the growth effects of cereal crops, we conducted a metaanalysis of 48 independent studies worldwide. The pooled results showed that shoot weight (13.39%) and antioxidant metabolite content (SOD: 106.32%, POD: 32.29%, CAT: 22.63%) of cereal crops exposed to the presence of CNMs were significantly increased, but phytohormones secretion (17.84%) was inhibited. The results of subgroup analysis showed that there were differences in the results of different CNM types with the same exposure concentration on growth effects. Short-term exposure adversely affected the root and photosynthetic capacity of the crop, but prolonged exposure instead showed a promoting effect. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the concentration of CNMs and cereal variety variables were significantly associated with changes in multiple growth effect values. This work could offer references and fresh perspectives for investigating how nanoparticles and crops interact.

Purpose The enrichment of health-promoting compounds in plants and foods has received significant research attention over the past years, leading researchers to use cutting-edge technologies like elicitation in agriculture and food production systems. Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) have been shown to function as effective elicitors, enhancing the synthesis of secondary metabolites. Although carbon dots (CDs) are at the forefront due to their favorable characteristics, such as being green, biocompatible, and low toxicity, their functions as elicitors have not been thoroughly investigated. The aim of this study was, therefore, to investigate the potential effect of sugar beet molasses carbon dots (SBM-CDs), characterized by their endogenous food-borne nature as elicitors, on the agronomic and bioactive compounds of wheatgrass juice obtained from hydroponically cultivated wheatgrasses. Methods Wheatgrasses were grown with and without SBM-CDs extracted from molasses at 50–200 mg L− 1 concentrations through a nutrient solution in a hydroponic system. After 7 days, wheatgrass juice was obtained by squeezing wheatgrass. The effects of SBM-CDs were investigated by assessing the agronomic parameters and bioactive compounds of wheatgrass juice. Results The amount of β-carotene, vitamin E, vitamin C, and chlorophyll a increased by 150%, 84%, 25%, and 89%, respectively, with the application of 200 mg L− 1 SBM-CDs (p < 0.01) in comparison with the control group (the application without SBM-CDs). Besides, this application resulted in a 34% increase in the total quantity of tested phenolic compounds. Conclusions These data suggest that our biomass-derived renewable CDs may be a novel category of elicitors for enhancing the production of bioactive compounds in wheatgrass.
