Beneficial role of carbon nanotubes on mustard plant growth: an agricultural prospect (2011, background): “(Harrison and Atala 2007; Panyam and Labhasetwar 2003; Zanello et al. 2006). Lu et al. (2002) reported that TiO2 and SiO2 nanoparticles increase the synthesis of nitrate reductase in Glycine max which in turn promotes growth and germination by increasing the efficiency of its water uptake machinery.”
