Seed Nanopriming with ZnO and SiO<sub>2</sub> Enhances Germination, Seedling Vigor, and Antioxidant Defense Under Drought Stress

Seed Nanopriming with ZnO and SiO<sub>2</sub> Enhances Germination, Seedling Vigor, and Antioxidant Defense Under Drought Stress

Drought stress is one of the main factors limiting seed germination and seedling establishment in field crops such as jalapeño peppers (<i>Capsicum annuum</i> L.). Nanopriming, a seed improvement technique using nanoparticle suspensions, has emerged as a sustainable approach to improving...
