The use of pesticides for pest control during the storage period of legume seeds is a common practice. This study evaluated the disruptive effects on pea seed germination and the repair effects of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) and lentinans (LNTs) This study examined the biomass, nutrient content, antioxidant indicators, plant hormones, phenolic compounds, and metabolites associated with the lignin biosynthesis pathway in pea sprouts. The application of acetamiprid resulted in a significant decrease in yield, amino-acid content, and phenolic compound content of pea sprouts, along with observed lignin deposition. Moreover, acetamiprid residue exerted a notable level of stress on pea sprouts, as evidenced by changes in antioxidant indicators and plant hormones. During pea seed germination, separate applications of 5 mg/L SeNPs or 20 mg/L LNTs partially alleviated the negative effects induced by acetamiprid. When used in combination, these treatments restored most of the aforementioned indicators to levels comparable to the control group. Correlation analysis suggested that the regulation of lignin content in pea sprouts may involve lignin monomer levels, reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism, and plant hormone signaling mediation. This study provides insight into the adverse impact of acetamiprid residues on pea sprout quality and highlights the reparative mechanism of SeNPs and LNTs, offering a quality assurance method for microgreens, particularly pea sprouts. Future studies can validate the findings of this study from the perspective of gene expression.
