Pearl millet and clusterbean foliar sprayed with 100 µg/ mL Zn as nano-zinc oxide increased shoot while root biomass decreased. The amount of total C exuded through roots also decreased. Reduction in root biomass and exudates together accounted for only about 16 and 38% of the additional C accumulated in shoot biomass. Therefore there is all likelihood that part of the enhanced C accumulated in shoot may be due to enhanced photosynthesis. Such a positive influence of nano-ZnO could have been due to protection of the cellular membrane from the UV-radiation as evident from less malondialdehyde content in the treated plants in our experiment.
