Abstract Drought-stressed and zinc-deficient soils are major contributors to reduced wheat yields low-quality grains, especially in semi-arid regions of the world. Zinc-oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) adept enough avoid these losses if applied under right dose at growth stage many crops including ( Triticum aestivum L.). Therefore, a pot experiment was conducted with four levels ZnO-NPs (0, 50, 100 150 ppm), drought imposed tillering (D 1 ) grain filling 2 stages, considering normal irrigation as control 0 ), explore interactive effects episodes on growth, eco-physiology, yield, quality wheat. The results depicted stage-dependent variations all recorded parameters. (150 ppm) significantly increased number grains (12.5%), weight (12.4%), total yield (25.5%), zinc contents (58.6%) when crop exposed stress stage, compared treatment. Likewise, enhanced plant height, spike length, biomass, contents, protein by 15.5%, 3.2%, 16.7%, 100.0%, 53.8%, respectively, Thus, emerged potential alleviator yield-oriented safe nano-fertilizer for facing challenges.
