Some studies suggest iron oxide nanoparticles enhance plant growth, photosynthesis, and stress tolerance, while other studies indicate potential growth inhibition and oxidative stress in certain plants.
Iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe NPs) have garnered significant interest in agricultural research due to their potential to enhance plant growth, improve nutrient uptake, and mitigate environmental stress. This synthesis aims to consolidate findings from multiple studies on the effects of iron oxide nanoparticles on plant growth.

Interaction with Soil Microorganisms:
Iron oxide nanoparticles have the potential to significantly enhance plant growth, improve nutrient uptake, and mitigate environmental stress. These benefits are largely attributed to improved photosynthesis, increased antioxidant activity, and better nutrient biofortification. However, the effects are highly dependent on the concentration of nanoparticles and the specific plant species, with higher concentrations sometimes leading to toxicity. Additionally, the interaction of these nanoparticles with soil microorganisms can further influence plant growth outcomes. Overall, iron oxide nanoparticles present a promising tool for advancing agricultural productivity and sustainability.
