Abstract:The aim of this work was to study the effect of metal oxide nanoparticles (MO NPs) on enzymatic activities (EAs) of two main plant life forms under drought stress (DS). Foliar spray of silver oxide (AgO), iron oxide (FeO), zinc oxide (ZnO) and cadmium oxide (CdO) at levels of 30, 60, 90 and 120 mg.L-1 were used on aerial parts of forb Sanguisorba officinalis L. and grass Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. under DS levels of 25-100% field capacity (FC). Glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD)… Show more
