“…and the stimulation of flowering. A similar result was reported by Byczynska et al ( 2019 ), who found that the Tulipa gesneriana L. plants showed early flowering, larger petals, producing higher-quality flowers, as well as the increase in root length. In contrast, Rastrogi et al ( 2019 ) found that the presence of these ENPs decreased the chlorophyll content and the root and shoot length of Triticum aestivum L. These controversial results witness the necessity of additional research regarding the use of Ag-ENPs and highlight that the delivery of Ag-ENPs or ENMs to the ecosystems must be regulated.…”

Graphical abstract Currently, hundreds of different nanomaterials with a broad application in products that make daily lives a little bit easier, in every aspect, are being produced on an industrial scale at thousands of tons per year. However, several scientists, researchers, politics, and ordinary citizens have stated their concern regarding the life cycle, collateral effects, and final disposal of these cutting-edge materials. This review summarizes, describes, and discusses all manuscripts published in the Journal Citation Reports during the last 10 years, which studied the toxicity or the effects of nanomaterials on human and environmental health. It was observed that 23.62% of the manuscripts analyzed found no ecological or human risks; 54.39% showed that several nanomaterials have toxicological effects on the ecosystems, human, or environmental health. In comparison, only 21.97% stated the nanomaterials had a beneficial impact on those. Although only 54.39% of the manuscripts reported unfavorable effects of nanomaterials on ecosystems, human, or environmental health, it is relevant because the potential damage is invaluable. Therefore, it is imperative to make toxicological studies of nanomaterials with holistic focus under strictly controlled real conditions before their commercialization, to deliver to the market only innocuous and environmentally friendly products.

“…We have previously reported similar results confirming the beneficial effects of 100 ppm AgNPs, applied by pre-planting soak, on the yield of cut flowers and daughter bulbs of Tulipa gesneriana cv. Pink Impression [30]. Dipping cuttings in 50 and 100 ppm AgNP solutions in lily propagation via bulb scales increased the weight of bulblets and their adventitious roots [34].…”

“…To better understand plant response to AgNPs, we evaluated the leaf content of assimilation pigments and macronutrients and analyzed macromolecule composition using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). With the exception of our earlier research [30], no comprehensive studies have been undertaken on using metal nanoparticles as biostimulators to enhance the ornamental quality of bulbous crop plants.…”

Nanoparticles exhibit unique biological activities and may serve as novel plant growth stimulators. This research consisted of a two-year pot experiment designed to find out if silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) might be used in the cultivation of Oriental lilies. In the first year, we evaluated the effects of various concentrations of AgNPs (0, 25, 50, 100, and 150 ppm) and their application methods (pre-planting bulb soaks, foliar sprays, and substrate drenches) on the growth and flowering of Lilium cv. Mona Lisa. In the second year, we evaluated the effects of soaking the bulbs of cv. Little John in the same concentration of AgNP solution on plant morphological features, leaf content of photosynthetic pigments, basic macronutrients, and complex biomolecules with the use of the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Soaking the bulbs in a nanoparticle solution turned out to be the most effective strategy for growth and flowering promotion. AgNPs stimulated plant growth, as manifested by enhanced accumulation of leaf and bulb biomass and accelerated flowering. Moreover, plants treated with silver nanoparticles showed higher leaf greenness index, formed more flowers, and flowered longer. At 100 ppm AgNPs, the leaves accumulated the highest content of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids, and were the richest in potassium, calcium, and sulfur. The FTIR spectra did not show any changes in absorbance intensity and chemical composition in the leaves from AgNP-treated bulbs.

“…For example, Liang et al 36 reported that the Cos-La nanoparticles signicantly enhanced the growth of rice plants by increasing the root length and fresh weight in hydroponics experiments. Byczyńska et al 37 found that the silver nanoparticles stimulated tulips plants growth by increasing leaf greenness index, stomatal conductance, fresh root weight and root length. Venkatachalam et al 38 showed that the zinc oxide nanoparticles were involved in growth promotion of cotton plants.…”

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using endophytic bacteria and their role in inhibition of rice pathogenic bacteria and plant growth promotion

et al. 2019

The biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through the use of endophytic bacteria is a safe replacement for the chemical method. The study aimed to synthesize AgNPs using endophytic bacterium Bacillus siamensis strain C1, which was isolated from the medicinal plant Coriandrum sativum. The synthesized AgNPs with the size of 25 to 50 nm were further confirmed and characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy with EDS profile. The synthesized AgNPs at 20 mg mL À1 showed a strong antibacterial effect against the pathogen of rice bacterial leaf blight and bacterial brown stripe, while an inhibition zone of 17.3 and 16.0 mm was observed for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) strain LND0005 and Acidovorax oryzae (Ao) strain RS-1, respectively. Furthermore, the synthesized AgNPs significantly inhibited bacterial growth, biofilm formation and swimming motility of Xoo strain LND0005 and Ao strain RS-1. In addition, the synthesized AgNPs significantly increased root length, shoot length, fresh weight and dry weight of rice seedlings compared to the control. Overall, this study suggests that AgNPs have the potential to protect rice plants from bacterial infection and plant growth promotion.
