Nanoparticles and Nanomaterials as Plant Biostimulants [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018 Biostimulants are materials that when applied in small amounts are capable of promoting plant growth. Nanoparticles (NPs) and nanomaterials (NMs) can be considered as biostimulants since, in specific ranges of concentration, generally in small levels, they increase plant growth.
