Characterization of Root and Foliar-Applied Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, γ-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, and Bulk Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) in Improving Maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) Performance

Iron (Fe) oxide nanoparticles (NPs) improve crop growth. However, the comparative effect of root and foliar-applied different sources of Fe oxide NPs on plant performance at morphological and physiological levels still needs to be discovered. In this study, we characterized the growth and physiologi...
