Role of biocompatible metal–organic frameworks as a source of iron for plant growth under iron-deficient conditions
Biodegradable MIL-100(Fe) nanoparticles act as controlled iron reservoirs: in Fe-deficient Arabidopsis they promote longer roots, restore chlorophyll absorption peaks and show fluorescence in roots/xylem, supporting iron release and uptake by plants.
