Foliar application of nanofertilizer improves seed quality performance of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Many reports emphasized the role of calcium fertilizers in tomato production as a key nutrient for enhancing productivity and its positive relationship with quality attributes. The application of nanotechnology in modern agriculture has gained significant attention recently due to the recent discovery of nanochemicals as potentially effective pesticides, fertilizers, and promising agents for plant growth. Recent scientific data indicated the positive effects of calcium nanoparticles (NPs) on plant growth and development, and subsequent yield and yield quality of many crops. However, there is a lack of information on their effect on tomato seed quality and initial plant growth
