Abstract

Nanoparticles are regularly released into our atmosphere, and the study of their effect on edible crop plants is of great interest today. This study accounts the enviro-friendly production of silver nanoparticles (SNPs) using Sarcococca saligna (D.Don) Muell.-Arg. leaf extract and the effect of these SNPs on growth and biochemical attributes of soybean (Glycine max L.). The nanoparticles obtained were spherical crystals with a mean size of 52.41 nm. Three soybean varieties namely Rawal‑1, NARC‑2, and Ajmari were exposed to four concentrations of SNPs (0, 25, 50 and 100 ppm) in a completely randomized design. A significant increment in seed germination (Ajmari), root length and shoot length (NARC-2) was recorded at 50 ppm SNPs while the leaf size positively increased at 25 ppm SNPs. The amount of chlorophyll, carotenoids and protein increased at 25 ppm SNPs. All other concentrations caused negative effects on these compounds. SNPs showed a positive effect on growth and biochemical attributes in G. max plant at specific concentrations (50 ppm for growth and 25 ppm for biochemical parameters). Nevertheless, to establish the most appropriate concentration, size and mode of application of SNPs for higher growth and maximum yield, a comprehensive experimentation is required.
