Carbon Nanomaterials in Seed Priming: Current Possibilities

Abstract

The prevailing agricultural system has become deeply ingrained and insufficient due to outdated practices inherited from the Green Revolution, necessitating innovative approaches for sustainable agricultural development. Nanomaterials possess the potential to significantly improve the efficient utilization of resources while simultaneously encouraging sustainability. Among these, carbonaceous nanomaterials have found diverse applications in agriculture, exhibiting remarkable capabilities in this domain. Notably, using biowaste to produce these materials makes them both cost-effective and environmentally friendly for seed priming. Seed priming is a technique that can potentially enhance germination rates and stress tolerance by effectively regulating gene pathways and metabolism. This review provides a comprehensive summary of recent progress in the field, highlighting the challenges and opportunities of applying carbonaceous materials in seed priming to advance sustainable agriculture practices. The existing reviews provide a general overview of using carbonaceous materials (graphene and derivatives) in agriculture. Yet, they often lack a comprehensive examination of their specific application in seed-related contexts. In this review, we aim to offer a detailed analysis of the application of carbonaceous materials in seed priming and elucidate their influence on germination. Furthermore, the review shows that crop response to carbonaceous nanomaterials is linked to material concentration and crop species.
