Dual-Emission Carbon Dot Nanozymes Mitigate Salt Stress and Enhance Photosynthesis for Crop Germination and Growth.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bifunctional carbon dot (CD) nanozymes with dual-emission properties and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity are synthesized via microwave method. CDs can simultaneously emit blue and red light under the same excitation wavelength, which effectively overlap with chloroplasts absorption spectra, thereby enhancing energy transfer and photosynthetic efficiency. For hydroponic seedling, CDs significantly promote growth of corn (Zea mays L.), increasing fresh weight, shoot length, chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance by 30.8%, 27.8%, 14.4%, 54.4% and 65.2%, respectively. Furthermore, CDs significantly alleviate oxidative damage in seeds and seedlings through their SOD-like activity, increasing seed germination rate by 41.5% under NaCl (200 mM) stress. In NaCl (200 mM)-treated soil, CDs enhanced corn salinity tolerance by triggering coordinated responses including reactive oxygen species scavenging, osmotic adjustment, and metabolic reprogramming. Transcriptome analysis revealed that CDs can regulate key pathways, including energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and the synthesis of secondary metabolites. Additionally, by passivating the surface functional groups of CDs, it investigates the specific functional groups contributing to their fluorescence and SOD-like activity, offering valuable insights for future design on similar nanomaterials. This study provides practical strategies for enhancing crop productivity and resilience in saline-alkali soils.
