• Carbon nanomaterials: production, impact on plant development, agricultural and environmental applications (2016, background): “These nanoparticles, passively penetrating through the chloroplast membrane via diffusion were able to influence photosynthetic activity by supplying electrons into the photosynthetic electron transport chain [83].”
• Nanotechnology and Plant Sciences (2015, background): “…light energy by delivering carbon nanotubes into chloroplast, and also carbon nanotubes could serve as artificial antennae that allow chloroplast to capture wavelengths of light which is not in their normal range, such as ultraviolet, green, and near-infrared (Cossins 2014; Giraldo et al. 2014).”
• Carbon nanotubes impact on date palm in vitro cultures (2016, background): “Since, nanoparticles have unique physicochemical properties, i.e., large surface area, high reactivity, compatible pore size, and particle morphology (Giraldo et al. 2014).”
• Applications of Nanotechnology in Plant Growth and Crop Protection: A Review (2019, background): “advancements in nanobionic approaches for crops improvement and environmental monitoring open a new window for research into functional plant nanomaterial hybrids [131,132].”
• Role of Nanoparticles in Plants (2015, background): “Giraldo et al. (2014) reported that embedded SWCNTs in the isolated chloroplast augmented three times higher photosynthetic activity than that of controls, and enhanced maximum electron transport rates, and SWCNTs enabled the plants to sense nitric oxide, a signaling molecule.”
