The impacts of γ-FeO and FeO nanoparticles on the physiology and fruit quality of muskmelon (Cucumis melo) plants.

Iron fertilizers are worthy to be studied due to alleviate the Fe deficiency. Different forms of iron oxide nanoparticles are selected to better understand possible particle applications as an Fe source for crop plants. In this study, we assessed the different effects of γ-FeO and FeO NPs on the physiology and fruit quality of muskmelon plants in a pot experiment for five weeks.
