Carbon dots are nanoscale nanomaterials that counteract oxidative stress by mimicking the plant's antioxidant enzymes.

The researchers doped their carbon dots with magnesium, then sprayed them on rice seedlings planted in salt-free and salty soils.

The team found that seedlings treated with their dots contained lower levels of ROS and grew taller in salty soils than untreated ones.
