Interactions of Metal‐Based Engineered Nanoparticles with Plants: An Overview of the State of Current Knowledge, Research Progress, and Prospects

Current Knowledge, Research Progress, and Future Prospects of Phyto-Synthesized Nanoparticles Interactions with Food Crops under Induced Drought Stress

“…During dry seasons, plants can improve performance and physiology when they contact gold particles-specifically, growth rate and yield increase when green tea extract synthesizes Au-NPs [182][183][184]. According to Wahab et al, 2023, Au-NPs help plants to take up nutrients efficiently from soil and enhance their photosynthetic pigments that provide the best food resources for plants [185]. According to El-Saadony et al, 2022, using grape seeds for gold nanoparticles showed increased nutrient absorption, photosynthesis, antioxidant process, growth, and best yield quality in wheat crops [186].…”

“…During environmental challenges like drought, plants often encounter reduced photosynthetic rates and chlorophyll degradation, leading to diminished growth and productivity. However, research indicates that applying phytosynthesized NPs can ameliorate these detrimental effects and enhance photosynthetic efficiency [1,2,185,[332][333][334].…”

“…These nanoparticles, made from plant extracts, have the extraordinary potential to encourage plant growth, increase stress tolerance, and improve nutrient intake. We must examine numerous critical research paths and suggestions before profiting from these phyto-synthesized NPs in agriculture [185,332,386].…”

“…4 However, engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) can benefit plant growth and development in unique ways depending on their physicochemical characteristics, applications, and concentrations. 5 Calcium is a key component of cell walls and membranes and plays a role in the maintenance of normal cell structure and function. 6 It acts as a second messenger molecule in a variety of cell-signaling processes to reprogram the metabolic pathways and developmental programs under abiotic stresses.…”

“…Last, most of NPs are assumed as environmentally friendly agents [1]. Because of the magnificent properties, nanoparticles, as one of the most used nanostructures, gained too much attention in the oil and gas industries, specifically in improved (IOR) and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations [2]. Refer to the nanoparticles' size and altering their surface characteristics to manipulate special optical, interfacial, magnetic, chemical or electrical features for making them more promising for operational utilizations, NPs flooding may alter the interfacial tension (IFT) and surface wettability through the porous media [3].…”
