Abstract:In this study, Brassica chinensis L seedlings after 6 weeks of soil cultivation were treated with
foliar application of TiO2 NPs (20 mg/L) for different
times. Transcriptomics analysis was employed to investigate the impact
of TiO2 NPs on the physiology, growth, and yield of B. chinensis L. Results showed that TiO2 NPs’ exposure significantly increased the biomass, total
phosphorus, and catalase enzyme activity by 23.60, 23.72, and 44.01%,
respectively, compared to the untreated ones (not bulk or ion).TiO2 NPs… Show more
