The role of silver nanoparticles in yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) defense response to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lupini.

ABSTRACT: This study presents the influence of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on the growth of yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.cv. Diament and Lupinus luteus L.cv. Mister), and some metabolic reactions triggered by AgNPs during the seed germination stage and development of the seedling. Also, the role of AgNPs in defense mechanisms of the above of yellow lupine varieties against hemibiotrofic patogen Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lupini. AgNPs enhanced the growth of yellow lupine seedlings, particularly root length and fresh biomass. Furthermore, AgNPs triggered defense-related phytohormones, such as abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonates (JA/MeJA), and salicylic acid (SA), which were involved in defense response of yellow lupine against F. oxysporum infection. The application of AgNPs significantly enhanced the
