Exposure to low levels of photocatalytic TiO2 nanoparticles enhances seed germination and seedling growth of amaranth and cruciferous vegetables

Abstract Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most common compounds on Earth, and it is used in natural forms or engineered bulks or nanoparticles (NPs) with increasing rates. However, the effect of TiO2 NPs on plants remains controversial. Previous studies demonstrated that TiO2 NPs are toxic to p...
