Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Synthesized nanoparticles had absorption maxima typical of silver nanoparticles.
- Observation Synthesized nanoparticles had a face-centred cubic structure.
- Observation Ph-AgNPs had better stability with a zeta potential of -32.7 mV.
- Observation Ph-AgNPs had a dynamic-light-scattering size range of 213 nm.
- Intervention effect Leaf necrosis differed significantly between 1 ppm Ph-AgNP and equal-concentration Lc-AgNP and Ca-AgNP sprays.
- Intervention effect 10 ppm Ph-AgNPs gave the lowest leaf number, length and width at 15 DAT.
- Intervention effect 10 ppm Ph-AgNPs gave the lowest bud diameter, root length and height at 15 DAT.
- Intervention effect 10 ppm Ph-AgNPs significantly decreased chlorophyll, carbohydrate and protein contents at 5 DAT.
- Intervention effect 10 ppm Ph-AgNPs significantly decreased photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance at 5 DAT.
- Intervention effect Biosynthesized nanoparticles significantly increased phenol content and SOD activity.
- Recommendation The authors recommend comprehensive long-term realistic-environment studies for accurate AgNP toxicity evaluation.
