Original Abstract

Zinc oxide nanoparticles are one of the most versatile materials, due to their diverse properties, functionalities, and applications. Their potencial in agriculture is also not negligible. The zinc in form of nanoparticles is more available for plants due to its skill to penetrate roots better. In this work we focused on the evaluation and comparison of effect of common zinc source (ZnSO4.7H2O), and zinc in form of nanoparticles (nanoZnO). Our pilot results show that it is very important to deal with the toxicity of zinc in the form of nanoparticles, as this form is most likely to be more toxic to plants than its equivalents in the form of simple inorganic salts.
