This study investigated the combined effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (Nano-Zn) and moringa leaf extract (MLE) on squash plants grown under water stress conditions in saline soil during 2021-2022. The research compared full irrigation (100% ETc) with deficit (60% ETc). While negatively impacted plant growth, yield, various physiological parameters, sequential application Nano-Zn (at 50 or 100 mg L-1) MLE (3%) significantly mitigated these adverse effects. treatment proved more effective than individual applications, enhancing growth photosynthetic efficiency, antioxidant systems. particularly improved tolerance by increasing protective compounds like soluble sugars amino acids while reducing harmful H2O2 levels. concluded that L-1 was optimal for performance drought stress, plus as second-best option.

Heavy metal (HM)-induced stress can lead to the enrichment of HMs in plants thereby threatening people's lives and health via food chain. For this reason, there is an urgent need for some reliable practical techniques detect analyze absorption, distribution, accumulation, chemical form, transport reducing or regulating HM content. Not only does it help explore mechanism plant response, but also holds significant importance cultivating with low levels HMs. Even though field has garnered attention recently, minority researchers have systematically summarized different methods analysis. This paper outlines detection analysis applied recent years determining concentration plants, such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), atomic absorption (AAS), fluorescence (AFS), X-ray spectroscopy (XAS), (XRF), laser ablation-inductively plasma-mass (LA-ICP-MS), non-invasive micro-test technology (NMT) omics molecular biology approaches. They forms, spatial uptake plants. paper, principles behind these are clarified, their advantages disadvantages highlighted, applications explored, guidance selecting appropriate study provided later research.
