DESCRIPTION
Nanoplastics derived from plastic waste are increasingly accumulating in agricultural farmlands. The absorption and deposition of plastic particles by crops pollute the food supply and pose unanticipated health concerns to human beings. However, the effects of nanoplastics on crop grains cultivated in polluted soil remain relatively unknown.
