“…Nanotechnology in modern agriculture is such a promising technology with tremendous potential to resolve nutrient shortages and leaching losses. The literature revealed that the use of NF as the macro and/or micronutrients with different application methods demonstrated slow and sustainable nutrient release boosting maximum nutrient utilization with comparatively higher production − because CF includes only the basic nutrients like N, P (phosphorous), and K (potassium); however, it does not include the other macro- and/or micronutrients. Therefore, the synthesis of NF with different macro/micronutrients based on nanotechnology emphasizes the controlled release and sustainable delivery systems to the plants.…”

Due to the higher potential for enhancing nutrient use efficiency, nanofertilizer (NF) is crucial in sustainable crop production. Thus, foliar-applied mixed nanofertilizer (MNFf) and commercial fertilizer (CF) into the soil (CFs) were claimed together ([MNFf + CFs]) and comparative nutrient use efficiency (NUE), productivity, and nutritional properties of tomato fruits were investigated. The mixed nanofertilizer (MNF) was prepared in our laboratory and characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared. To avoid the interference of other factors, all the treatments were divided into three groups: (i) blank treatment (no fertilizer), (ii) CF treatment, and (iii) combined [MNFf + CFs] treatment. The vegetative growth and qualitative and quantitative attributes of tomatoes were recorded, and the NUE, total production, and benefit–cost ratio (BCR) were also calculated. In addition, comparative nutritional properties for all treatments were analyzed. The plant’s height, stem diameter, root length, photosynthetic pigments, leaf minerals, and qualitative traits of tomato fruits were significantly (p < 0.05) increased by [MNFf + CFs] treatment compared to CFs. The protein, fiber, Fe, Zn, and K contents were significantly (p < 0.05) increased by 23.80, 38.10, 44.23, 60.01, and 2.39%, respectively, with the [MNFf + CFs] treatment as compared to CFs, while the ash and protein contents were both lower than the untreated tomato. Moreover, [MNFf + CFs] treatment has significantly (p < 0.05) increased the antioxidant properties. The NUE, total production, and BCR were also increased by 26.08, 26.04, and 25.38%, respectively, with the same treatment. Thus, [MNFf + CFs] treatment could be a potential alternative for reducing the excess use of CF.

“…An increase in the number of branches, total chlorophyll and vegetative dry weight is related to the fact that nano-fertilizers increase the efficiency of nutrient use, have a large surface area, and slowly release, which assist in absorbing nutrients quickly and speed of penetration, representation, and movement, leading to an increase the speed of growth and quality (e.g., protein and starch) by promoting photosynthesis. (Valiki et al, 2015 and Sajyan et al,2020). And the increase in the number of leaves is probably due to the effect of this fertilizer on increasing the plant height and metabolites activities needed for increasing leaf formation, as reported by (Singh, 2017).…”

This study was conducted in the greenhouse of the College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Duhok for the period between 15 th March 2022 to 15 th March 2023. The study aimed to test the effect of Gibberellic acid (GA3) with three concentrations (0, 200, 400) mg L -1 , and (1, 2, 4) g L -1 of NPK Nano fertilizers sprayed two times on the growth and development of Buxus sempervirens 'Suffruticosa' plant and the experimental units were organized by using (RCBD) Randomized Complete Block Design, with two factors 3×3= 9 treatments and three replications then taking three plants for each replication. The results showed that the 400 mg L -1 of GA3 significantly increased the number of branches, plant weight, number of leaves, growth index and leaf area compared with 200 mg L -1 which resulted in increasing plant height, vegetative dry weight, root dry weight, total chlorophyll content compared with control. Increasing of Nano fertilizer concentration up to 4 g L -1 significantly increased the plant height, number of branches, plant weight, number of leaves, vegetative dry weight, root dry weight also leaf area compared with 2 g L -1 which affected on increasing total chlorophyll content. The highest branches number (17.33) branch/plant, highest plant weight (189.20) g, number of leaves (143.33) leaf/plant, vegetative dry weight (42.30) g leaf area (2755.00) cm 2 was obtained from the interaction of (4 g L -1 + 400 mg L -1 ) of NPK Nano fertilizer and GA3 while plant height gave the same result (58.67) at both concentration (4 g L -1 + 200 mg L -1 ) and (4 g L -1 + 400 mg L -1 ), but in other side maximum total chlorophyll and growth index were from interaction of (2 g L -1 + 200 mg L -1 ) and gave (87.97) , (74279) respectively. Overall, the interaction between (gibberellin at 400 mg L -1 + Nano-NPK fertilizer 4 g L -1 ) provided best results of most studied characteristics. Also, both factors individually provided best results when 400 mg L -1 gibberellin and 4 g L -1 Nano-NPK fertilizer were used.

“…In recent years, nanotechnology has emerged as a prominent tool for enhancing agricultural productivity. The importance of nanofertilizers is due to their rapid and complete absorption by plants [8,12]. The positive effects of foliar application with Si-NPs on plant growth and development under heavy metal [5,7,13,14], UV radiation [15], salinity [16], and drought [4].…”

Purpose Silicon (Si) plays bene cial role in alleviating biotic and abiotic stresses but comparative investigations with Si nanoparticles (Si-NPs) under water restriction on medicinal plants is not recognized. The aim of this study was to observe the Si and Si-NPs effects on growth, physio-chemical attributes, and essential oil (EO) pro le in aerial parts of coriander (coriandrum sativum L.) under water stress.Methods A split-plot experiment was conducted with irrigation regimes (irrigation after 60, 90, and 120 mm evaporation from Class A pan) in the main plots and foliar application of Si (in the form of Na 2 SiO 3 ) and Si-NPs in the subplots during 2019 and 2020. ResultsThe results represented drought particularly severe stress decreased biological yield and relative water content (RWC) but increased total soluble sugar (TSS). Both Si and Si-NPs improved plant growth and yield through improved RWC, TSS, total phenolic content (TPC) and total avonoid content (TFC). Moderate drought stress with Si-NPs was highly effective on TPC, TFC,
