Efficacy of Carbon Nanodots and Manganese Ferrite (MnFe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) Nanoparticles in Stimulating Growth and Antioxidant Activity in Drought-Stressed Maize Inbred Lines

Efficacy of Carbon Nanodots and Manganese Ferrite (MnFe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) Nanoparticles in Stimulating Growth and Antioxidant Activity in Drought-Stressed Maize Inbred Lines

Despite being the third most-consumed crop, maize (<i>Zea mays</i> L.) is highly vulnerable to drought stress. The predominant secondary metabolite in plants is phenolic acids, which scavenge reactive oxygen species to minimize oxidative stress under drought stress. Herein, the effect of...
