From: Cu-chitosan nanoparticle boost defense responses and plant growth in maize (Zea mays L.)

Effect of Cu-chitosan NPs on (a) plant height (b) stem diameter (c) root length (d) root number (e) chlorophyll-a and (f) chlorophyll-b content. Each value is mean of triplicates and each replicate consisted of 3 plants samples and same letter in the graph of each treatment is not significantly different at p = 0.05 as determined by Tukey–Kramer HSD, control with water. BCH (bulk chitosan, 0.01%) dissolved in 0.1% acetic acid. CuSO4 (0.01%) and fungicide (0.01% of Bavistin).
