The control and promotion of plant and crop growth are important challenges globally. In this
study, we have developed a nanomaterial-assisted bionic strategy for accelerating plant
growth. Although nanomaterials have been shown to be toxic to plants, we demonstrate
herein that graphene oxide can be used as a regulator tool for enhancing plant growth and
stability. Graphene oxide was added to the growth medium of Arabidopsis thaliana L. as well
as injected into the stem of the watermelon plant. We showed that with an appropriate …
