Synthesis of Green Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Using Plant Waste from Colocasia esculenta for Seed Germination of Mung Bean (Vigna radiata)

Table 1

Impact of CeO₂-NPs on root and shoot length per plant grown under screenhouse conditions.

Concentrations (mg/ml)	Root lengths (cm)	Shoot lengths (cm)
0	1.24 ± 1.25^a	8.01 ± 1.44^ab
0.5	1.91 ± 1.56	10.9 ± 1.45
1.0	2.81 ± 1.81^abc	16.5 ± 1.41^a
1.5	1.82 ± 1.37^c	10.8 ± 1.48
2.0	1.35 ± 1.52^b	12.0 ± 1.60
2.5	1.93 ± 1.73	14.6 ± 1.49^b

The values were given as mean ± SE (standard error) of triplicate samples with 15 seeds each. Similar letters within column indicate significant difference at by using Tukey’s test.
