Water deficit stress is one of the most significant environmental abiotic factors influencing plant growth and metabolism globally. Recently, encouraging outcomes for the use of nanomaterials in agriculture have been shown to reduce the adverse effects of drought stress on plants. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of various carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) on the physiological, morphological, and biochemical characteristics of bell pepper plants subjected to water deficit stress conditions.

According to the ANOVA, triple interaction of treatments were significant on morphological and phytochmical traits, however, the main effect of treatments only affected physiological attributes.
