Effects of biosynthesized AgNPs on plant growth and chlorophyll content. a–c Comparison of plant height (a), root length (b), and leaf width (c) between biosynthesized AgNPs and sterilized distilled water treated Nicotiana benthamiana plants. d Seed germination under treatment with biosynthesized AgNPs or sterilized distilled water. e Column diagram showing chlorophyll contents in plants treated with biosynthesized AgNPs or sterilized distilled water. The leaf samples were collected after treatment with 1.2 Î¼g/mL biosynthesized AgNPs for 5 times (once per day). Mock, negative control (treated with sterilized distilled water). The data are mean ± standard error (n = 3). Data analysis was performed using Student’s t test (.∗∗0.001 < P < 0.01)
