Abstract
⺠First report on mechanism of NiO-NPs induced apoptosis in tomato roots cells. ⺠NiO-NPs trigger the release of caspase-3 proteases from mitochondria. ⺠Flow cytometry data validated oxidative burst and mitochondrial dysfunction. ⺠NiO-NPs at varying concentrations induced imbalance in antioxidant enzymes. ⺠Damage to DNA signifies the toxic potential of NiO-NPs to plants.
