Abstract

Profound interest and progress has been made since the invention of nanotechnology in 1959. However, its application in plant tissue culture and biotechnology has not been fully acknowledged in parallel with other facets of this technology. In this manuscript, the AgNPs effects on plant tissue culture and biotechnology encompass their antimicrobial effects and their mechanisms of action addressed to some extends. Moreover, their effects on seedling growth also reviewed. Most of the presented papers in the field of plant science have focused on antimicrobial effects of silver nanoparticles but its interesting inhibitory effects of plant senescence phytohormone ethylene, most likely can open a new window for future research.
