Melatonin (MT) and selenium (Se) application known to decrease heavy metal uptake and toxicity in plants. By mixing the Se in MT medium a new complex MT-Se nanoparticles (MT-Se NPs) was synthesized and we investigated the role of MT-Se NPs on B. napus growth and tolerance against As stress. The MT-Se particles significantly enhanced the plant growth and other associated physiological attributes under As stress. The As treatment at 80 μM was more phytotoxic, however MT-Se NPs application resulted in a substantial increase in leaf chlorophyll fluorescence, biomass accumulation, and decreased ROS relative to As stressed plants. The use of MT-Se NPs to As stressed plants reduced photosynthetic inhibition and oxidative stress and attenuated the increase in MDA and H₂O₂ contents. The application of MT-Se NPs also boosted the antioxidant enzymes activities such as SOD, POD and CAT as well as the APX, GR and GSH activates under As stress. The results also showed MT-Se NPs treatments alleviated the growth inhibition induced by As and reduced the accumulation of As in leaves and roots of B. napus seedlings. Moreover, treatment with MT-Se NPs improved the plant growth more successfully than treatment of MT and Se alone. This study explored the mechanism of melatonin and selenium efficiency in the composition can be jointly encouraged to exert synergistic effects and boost plant enzymatic activities.
