production through foliage spraying and soil application. The use of nanoparticles can …

Increasing production of synthetic plastics and poor management of plastic wastes have
dramatically increased the amount of plastics in the environment. In 2014, at the first United …

The toxic impact of microplastics/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) in plants and the food chain has
recently become a top priority. Several research articles highlighted the impact of MPs/NPs …

Microplastic (MP) pollution is becoming a global problem due to the resilience, long-term
persistence, and robustness of MPs in different ecosystems. In terrestrial ecosystems, plants …

Microplastics (MPs) are emerging contaminants in terrestrial systems that cause diverse
impacts on plants. However, little is known about whether MPs especially micro-sized MPs …

Microplastics (MPs) are creating an emerging threat on the soil ecosystems and are of great
global concern. However, the distribution in soil-plant system, as well as the phytotoxicity …

In recent years, the rapid development of nanotechnology has made significant impacts on
the industry. With the wide application of nanotechnology, nanoparticles (NPs) are inevitably …

Microplastics (MPs) are plastic particles with lesser than 5 mm in size, and in recent years
their accumulation in the soil has given rise to a critical global environmental issue that …

Microplastic (MP) pollution has become a global concern due to the generation of extensive
plastic waste and products (370 million metric tons in 2020) that are difficult to biodegrade …

Microplastics are among the major contaminations in terrestrial and marine environments
worldwide. These persistent organic contaminants composed of tiny particles are of concern …
