Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) is necessary for plants as a structural element or an enzyme cofactor. It also plays a significant role in the light and dark responses of photosynthesis. Moringa plants are considered one of the most important medicinal plants that humans need for nutrition. The aim of the study is to provide Mg to plants in an easy and simple way. Therefore, it is widely available in human food due to its nutritional importance. In this experiment, the treatment was done on the Moringa plant as, one of the medicinal plants that is increasingly used in fresh form. The experiment was conducted at the research farm of the National Research Center. Magnesium oxide has been extracted and prepared in a natural way that is safe for humans, plants, and soil. Trichoderma viride filtrate was used as a chelating agent in an environmentally friendly process to create magnesium oxide nanoparticle (MgO-NPs). FTIR, TEM, and SEM-EDX were utilized to analyze and characterize the synthesized. Plants were treated with different doses to determine the optimal concentration for the plant. The effect of treatment on plants was to improve vegetation such, as a number of leaves (232.15), leaf area (273.97 cm2), and fresh weight (3693.17 g). It also increased dry matter in the plant (171.8 g), chemical properties, and elements.

期刊介绍:
Biotechnology Journal (2019 Journal Citation Reports: 3.543) is fully comprehensive in its scope and publishes strictly peer-reviewed papers covering novel aspects and methods in all areas of biotechnology. Some issues are devoted to a special topic, providing the latest information on the most crucial areas of research and technological advances.
In addition to these special issues, the journal welcomes unsolicited submissions for primary research articles, such as Research Articles, Rapid Communications and Biotech Methods. BTJ also welcomes proposals of Review Articles - please send in a brief outline of the article and the senior author''s CV to the editorial office.
BTJ promotes a special emphasis on:
Systems Biotechnology
Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering
Nanobiotechnology and Biomaterials
Tissue engineering, Regenerative Medicine and Stem cells
Gene Editing, Gene therapy and Immunotherapy
Omics technologies
Industrial Biotechnology, Biopharmaceuticals and Biocatalysis
Bioprocess engineering and Downstream processing
Plant Biotechnology
Biosafety, Biotech Ethics, Science Communication
Methods and Advances.
