Key Findings
- Study conducted in Turkey on anise plants, exploring silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) effects on plant chemistry
- AgNPs increased production of certain fatty acids, indicating changes in the plant's cell membranes
- Higher AgNP concentrations led to stress in anise plants, affecting their defense mechanisms
