Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how eco-friendly silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) influence the production of secondary metabolites in Pimpinella anisum L. (anise), a plant whose metabolites are difficult to synthesize chemically.
  • Different concentrations of AgNPs were tested, showing that lower doses (1 and 5 mg/L) induced stress but ultimately led to increased production of essential fatty acids, while higher doses (10 and 20 mg/L) resulted in notable toxicity.
  • The findings suggest that AgNPs can effectively enhance the synthesis of valuable metabolites like omega fatty acids and phenolic compounds in anise, highlighting their potential as plant elicitors in agriculture and pharmaceuticals.
